10 Horror Movie Wishes That Went HORRIBLY Wrong

7. The Gate 2: The Trespassers

Wish Upon
Vision

Proving that death and destruction isn't always the consequence of making wishes, The Gate 2 gave us something a little more light-hearted in the way of karma.

Having learned nothing from the previous movie, Terrence decides to reopen the portal to hell. Because horror movie characters are idiots. But if they weren't there would never be any horror movies at all.

He summons forth a wish-granting, stop-motion minion like the ones that ran amok in the first film. He doesn't keep hold of the little critter for long as it is soon stolen from him by teenage ne'er-do-wells, John and Moe. The pair decide to dine at a fancy restaurant having wished for, and been granted, bundles of cash.

Because that's what teenage thieves want, right? Not booze or drugs. Fine dining and a bit of culture.

But it was never going to be as easy as that. As they attempt to pay the bill for their gourmet nosh, their magic money turns to poo. Yes, they slap down a handful of faecal matter as payment. They're definitely going to be made to do the washing up after that.
