Plot
A young boy discovers a rock which grants wishes. So far, so awesome, however the joy is spoiled when calculating children and trouble-making adults all make a play for the power of the rock.

Verdict
Despite the usual Rodriguez abundance of effects, there is a pleasingly traditional feel to this tale.
