One by one, Willburn’s students learn a lethal lesson: be careful what you wish for.
IMDB Page
'Amateurish episodic horror set in an English school, about a clown who grants wishes by phone text only the results of the wishes are never what the person expects. All the stories (20 in all are introduced by Sean Pertwee what was he thinking to take this job) and range from the crude to rude things like a girls boobs growing to the point of exploding as her boyfriend wished she had bigger ones. The effects range from the not too bad like in the one episode a girl with lesbian tendencies wishes she could look good enough to eat and ends up having her face chewed off, to really bad computer effects made ones like in the cautionary tale on smoking. On the plus side some of the school uniform clad actresses are great looking it’s just a shame the overall concept is done so badly, maybe less demanding teen viewers will enjoy it more.'
