This had some very enjoyable scenes. I wish they had made the powers of the djinn more consistent, but regardless, this low-budget straight-to-video 90's kino entertained me more that I would have expected.
>>218192278The first two had theatrical releases, only 3 and 4 are direct-to-video, and those Canadian shitfests are campy and fun in their own way
>>218192396Oh. For what's it's worth, I got the info from wikipedia. Some scenes look pretty good on their own anyways. I like this director, I only became aware of The Hidden last year or so, there's some unique dreamlike gonzo sequences in that one too.
>>218192672huh, maybe 2 was direct to video, although it was shot in widescreen so they probably intended a theatrical release.
>direct to video sequels
>>218193486I like 1 and 2, lost me with the third one
Divoff is kino in everything he's in.
>>218193690what's he inalways thought he should be bigger
Is there ANYTHING wrong with Wishmaster?
>>218192278 I like it better than the first one, very fun. The fact he can't get out of jail because no one will make a wish at first is hilarious.
>>218192278Does the wishmaster know he's a fictional character? because he seems to be looking right at me.
>>218196402I think he can get out of jail anytime he wants, at first he chooses to stay there and take the wrap for the murder of the main girl so he can have access to her, or that she'll come in. but yeah, this part of the character is fun.i think they could have done with the idea of him turning the desires of people against them.the secondary characters of the whore/madonna and the priest/boyfirend are also nicely tongue-in-cheek.
>>218195315well in wishmaster 2 the soundtrack could be a little better, and the granting of the wish in the OP pic is a bit weak. then he walks out of jail as the big guard, but then there's a torn body following the "slow dance" found by another guard, which body is it if the two of them were alone in there? but then he resumes looking like himself in the next scene anyways. that part is a bit incoherent and weak to me.
>>218195315The shit-eating grin the genie wears on his like a mask
>>218197528there's also that weird scene where the girl has to purify herself, it was just kind of oddly specific and comes out of nowhere, it felt like they should have been more leading up to it than like 3 sentences
>>218197598yeah, the finger-cutting is odd.
>>218192278His performance is legendary and im surprised I never see it brought up. He's a GOAT horror villain
>>218197952His voice is unbearable
>>218197967That's the best part you dumb faggot
>>218198208No, he's a terrible voice actor, horrible delivery.
>>218192278The smile and the voice make the movies.
