Added 2023-11-11 05:56:32 +0000 UTCBest worst wish-granting genie ever!
Comments
this movie is dumb as hell but I kind of genuinely enjoyed it; the combination of stupid plot and great production value (2 or 3 instances of bad cg aside) made it a really fun watch.

2024-08-05 10:22:31 +0000 UTCIf you look at the dates, Robert Englund played Willie and Freddy in the same year (I was obsessed with him in high school)

2024-05-07 00:43:30 +0000 UTCPLEASE DO WISHMASTER 2 or 3

2023-11-13 16:37:31 +0000 UTCHey, genie guy played by Noah: if it makes you feel better, Amelia Bedelia is hot, and we're not the only ones that think so. She's got a surprising amount of fanart for a character that didn't have a TV show

2023-11-13 16:37:02 +0000 UTCit's pronounced Djinn ;)

2023-11-13 15:40:48 +0000 UTCif one wants scary Djinns, ifrits are you to go or Ghuls. Ghuls are Djinns that feed on the dead and hang around in cementaries

2023-11-12 09:26:28 +0000 UTCI feel like i recall eli mentioning recording this on Dear Old Dads several weeks ago, this was probably before the heart attack. I'd love to be wrong though.
potato potato also another potato
2023-11-12 07:40:36 +0000 UTCwich is why horror movies are among the most profitable generas. very little cost of making them and very high profit even if they are terrible
Markus Nävergård
2023-11-12 07:22:41 +0000 UTCI was coming to bring that up as well. Ahura Mazda was the inspiration for the late Jewish/early Christian conception of god after the Jews were freed from Persian rule. He was source of all light, knowledge and goodness. Angra Mainu/Ahriman would have been the correct option for a collection of evil.

2023-11-12 05:12:22 +0000 UTCNot enough respect was given to the security guard in this episode. That ain’t some guy that’s Tony Todd aka Candyman

2023-11-12 02:49:28 +0000 UTCWes wrote and created Freddy/Nightmare. Ghostface was created by Kevin Williamson.

2023-11-12 01:44:41 +0000 UTCHow on EARTH did they greenlight sequels?!
Denise Huston
2023-11-12 00:01:34 +0000 UTC... They do realize Wes Craven didn't direct this, right?

2023-11-11 23:36:53 +0000 UTChmm maybe the smoking could be a refrence that Djinns in islam are made from smoke less fire. Well ifrits are. Genies are made from fire.
Markus Nävergård
2023-11-11 22:28:31 +0000 UTCSo Craven only produced Wishmaster. Putting his name on it was part of the side deals done to get Scream (1996) done. And for Wishmaster it worked. Cost 5mil, made 15mil despite being terrible.
B. King
2023-11-11 22:25:38 +0000 UTCwhy would a satue of Azhura mazda be cursed with evil? it should be Angra maniyu ( Arhiman) the evil god of Zorastrism. Movie makers cant research
Markus Nävergård
2023-11-11 22:08:01 +0000 UTCOMG Noah you are SO right! Robert Englund, Freddy he may be, is Willie every time I see him

Scott Lesch
2023-11-11 17:06:28 +0000 UTCI'm a dad. I read those stories to my daughter. Yes Amelia Bedelia is hot. The maid costume? The black stockings?
Scott Lesch
2023-11-11 16:40:51 +0000 UTCTrue Fact: Wes Craven got degrees in English and psychology from Wheaton College for Christ and His Kingdom.

2023-11-11 13:05:19 +0000 UTCI enjoyed that, thank you.
Mark Smith
2023-11-11 09:12:23 +0000 UTCAlso if you think this one had problems the second and third wish master are even more GAM worthy. A teaser you have a fight between the Djinn and The Arch Angel Michael possessing some college kid.
Kevin McGonigle
2023-11-11 06:44:31 +0000 UTCPoint of contention. Freddy was not the peak of Wes Craven that would be ghost face

2023-11-11 06:39:48 +0000 UTCThat wishbone came true!
