Ludicrous b-horror movie

This movie is just so funny. It is totally, totally inept. I had expected a decent movie but after a while I realized that this movie had inept acting, dialougue, plot - everything in it was made to be wrong. However, it is very exciting, filled with details and quite intelligent actually in its own inept way. I just found out that this is the same director who made Christina´s House. This movie is WAAAAYYYYY better than Christina´s House which must be one of the worst horror movies ever (I think it got a rating around 2/10 on IMDB). Anyway, The Wisher is incredibly childish and stupid at times in an intelligent, creative way. How old is the director? 10 years or something. It´s like those horror comic scripts I made when I was that age. Moreover, the first scene, where "the father" (who looks about 5 years older than his daughter - I thought it was her boyfriend) says "What did you wish for" and eats the blood-filled (menstrual?) cake. What did she wish for? We will never know.
