#1574 Obsession on imdb:

After breaking the mysterious "One Wish Willow" to win his crush's heart, a hopeless romantic finds himself getting exactly what he asked for but soon discovers that some desires come at a dark, sinister price.

A variant of the Monkey Paw in a way, so many stories and films with variants I lost track of what was the origin. Mainly something to make a wish with and that goes completely wrong. Not the real stuff to jump up in excitement anymore. Add to that rather boring and pretty much unininteresting characters, poor acting, quite a few cinematic flaws, especially in the continuation department and we are heading for a foul stinker (MEOW! ). But as predictable many things were, some jumpscares managed to rock the theater a few times and some gore was also in place. I liked the ending a bit so the stink was fading a bit and I can give a 4.
