Double Feature: "Wishmaster" ~ 1997 & "Wishmaster 2: Evil Never Dies" ~ 1999

"Wishmaster"  ~ 1997

Netflix description  =  Accidentally released after being trapped inside a gemstone for centuries, a demonic entity, sets out to grant 3 wishes to regain his human form.  Though the genie makes dreams come true, it also wreaks havoc on those who succumb to its offer.

So I consider this to be a Wes Craven classic!  The wishes are creatively taken care of, making this such a fun watch.  Lots of gore and great kill scenes, also lots of dark humor.  Its a definite go watch!!

My score 4/5

"Wishmaster 2: Evil Never Dies"  ~  1999

Netflix description  =  When an ancient evil entity known as The Djinn is accidentally released after being trapped in a stone for centuries it sets out to grant 3 wishes so it can regain its human form, wreaking havoc on the souls who succumb to its offer.  (Sound familiar lol)

Watching both movies back to back was a treat.  The wishes are much more creative, as are the kill scenes.  Another thing I particularly liked was the back story of the Djinn.  Great fun, funny, campy movie!  Also a definite go watch!!

My score  4/5
