Movie Reviews of Wishing Stairs
Movie Review: 29 times is a charm
Summary: 5 Stars
Here we have one of the Whipsering Corridor movies, where two girls are our central focal points. They have this thing at the school they attend - apparently there is a way where you can get a wish from the "wishing Stairs" that are located outside one of the buildings. You simply climb all of the stairs, counting them, and an extra one will appear if you pray to the right spirit. The only problem is that this spirit is not much of the helping variety - it is more of the tricking/ screwing up your life type.
I liked this movie quite a bit and have to say it has all the things that makes the Whispering Corridor movies what they are. It has two girls that are the main people, a bizarre little story (this one has a folklore idea in it and I'm not certain if it is make-believe or it is actual folklore), and it has the all-girls school we get to know and love. It also has the creepy factor that outweighs the gore factor in any way - these movies ar emore angry spirits and revenge than anything else - and that isn't a bad thing. The only negative, and the reason it would lose any momentum, is the ending in which the spirits ALWAYS do almost the same thing (this one deviates a bit, though, so that's cool).
If you like your foreign horror, want some spooky story where two girls do mean things to one another to break bonds or to move ahead, then yu would like these movies. They all bring something good to the table and all of them are a bit off. I like this one and momento Mori the best, followed by the Voice. That's all that are out as of now, and they come with a good vote considering how much of this type of horror is out there.
