Let's worship at its altar of dreary cliches. Never mind that it's a cretinous, juvenile, idiotic trashfire. What's interesting is that Wish Upon is, of course, critically dismissed because it's a supernatural teen horror film (even tho, as I say, I thought it was really well done) whereas Hounds Of Love has got serious critics jizzing into their notes with praise because tonally it's "serious" and "gritty" and slooow. It's just my opinion, obviously, but if you ever want to know exactly what I think of the genre, these two films and my thoughts on them pretty much sum it up. You might think these two films are so disparate that any comparative reference is absurd and you'd kind of be right and YET! Both are ostensibly horror films, and both are textbook examples of either exactly what I like in horror and exactly what I hate. yesterday, just like Wish Upon (which I saw and posted about last night).
