A woman releases an evil genie from a bottle, then those around her fall victim to the demon genie's powers as he works his way back to her, each a victim of their own deepest wishes.

The concepts put forth in "The Monkey's Paw" are being stretched awfully thin here. I didn't particularly care how the djinn turned people's wishes around on them, and I thought the ending was really predictable. The only good part is a deliciously evil performance by Andrew Divoff as the Wishmaster. (Jan 15, 2000) | ||||||
