This is your perfect Halloween movie. Gore, guts (even though
they're fake-looking), blood, and a tremendously creative plot.
What else could you ask for in a horror movie?
Attractive Alex Amberson, who works at a gem lab, asks best
friend (and boyfriend hopeful) Josh to analyze a fire opal.
Alone, Josh puts the opal inside the analyzing machine; it explodes
and the creature who emerges quickly kills Josh. Feeding off
people's wishes, the creature, the Djinn, kills person after
person, and causes much destruction in the city. How can Alex
stop the Djinn?
My favorite scene is where a blood-drenched skeleton steps out
of its skin and walks around. Another scene involves one guy
pulling out another guy's guts, which was so unrealistic - it
looks too much like computer imaging - that it was funny.
P.S. Although even a kid could tell
the "guts pulling out scene" was fake, please don't take children
under 12 to "Wishmaster" as it was far-fetched and a bit offensive
for the younger set.
My rating : 4 stars (only if you like horror movies)
Rating : R (horror, violence, gore, and language)
