Wishman

About This Movie

So, Wishman is an interesting TV movie from '83 that dives deep into the ethical dilemmas of genetic experimentation. It has this eerie, almost claustrophobic vibe, with its lab setting adding to the tension. The pacing feels a bit off at times, but it kind of works in building suspense. The performances from the two main employees are decent, capturing that mix of desperation and moral conflict. The practical effects, while not groundbreaking, have a certain charm and authenticity that digital effects often lack. The themes of freedom versus confinement resonate throughout, making it a thought-provoking watch for anyone into sci-fi with a touch of moral complexity.
