Wish You Were Dead (2001)

Wish You Were Dead: Directed by Valerie McCaffrey. With Cary Elwes, Elaine Hendrix, Christopher Lloyd, Mary Steenburgen. Two bad women fight over one man in a back-stabbing, money-grabbing, insurance-hustling, double-dealing, two-timing caper.

“Okay, Iu0026#39;ll admit 10 is a little high for this movie, but it has been unfairly panned by those who just donu0026#39;t like this kind of movie. As someone said in the review of a different movie, some people donu0026#39;t know the difference between a badly done movie and one they just donu0026#39;t like. This movie is not for everyone. It should only be watched by those that like dark (very dark, black even) humor. Outrageous characters with malice in their heart. If that is your cup of tea, then you may find this, as did I, very surprising and funny. It has top people in it playing it up to the hilt, as they should have. Cary Elwes, Christopher Lloyd, Elaine Hendrix, and Mary Steenburgen like Iu0026#39;ve never seen her before. Some have complained about Cary Elwesu0026#39; acting in it. I thought he was priceless, playing a role very much against his usual type. The whole thing would not have been near as compelling had Cary Elwes not played it as he did. I found this movie very funny, but please note my warning at the beginning. This is for folks who enjoy plots wildly outrageous, their characters ridiculous, and their humor dark.”
