Product Description A couple inadvertantly sets free the evil Djinn when Sam gives to his love, Lisa, the antique red jewel that has imprisoned Djinn. Djinn then quickly takes the form of Sam's lawyer, Verdel, on the case of a car accident that crippled Sam, in order to convince Lisa to make three wishes with which Djinn will open the gates of hell on Earth. It turns out, however, that Lisa's third wish is to love Verdel, and now the disguised Wishmaster must attempt to woo Lisa's heart and carry out his dark plan. .com Viewers may find some marginal entertainment in the Wishmaster series' fourth entry, which attempts to cast its perverse anti-hero, the Djinn, in a sympathetic light. However, silly plot developments and childish splatter effects undo whatever interest is generated by the premise. This time around, the Djinn is summoned by a woman whose boyfriend was crippled in an accident. He assumes the form of her lawyer and offers her the standard three wishes, two of which bring her a healthy settlement and a boost to her sex life. However, the Djinn¹s generosity comes with a price: when he grants the third wish, more Djinn will be released from Hell to bring destruction to Earth. But in order to do this, he must make the woman love his true form (a horned demon). This nominally intriguing idea is bungled at every turn by hamfisted scripting and performances, making Wishmaster 4 a must-see for series completists only. --Paul Gaita P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); Set Contains: The Wishmaster 4 DVD is presented in widescreen format and includes two commentaries featuring director Chris Angel, who makes some fairly grandiose statements about his film. He¹s joined on one track by actor John Novak, who plays the Djinn with what could politely be called "relish," and whose contributions match Angel in the much-ado-about-nothing department. The second track with actors Michael Trucco (the lawyer) and Jason Thompson (the boyfriend) is more restrained, and the more preferable of the two. A brief Q&A with the Djinn regarding his love life will be fitfully amusing for rabid fans; the extras are rounded out by the trailer and several minutes of B-roll footage with some inexplicable and irritating narration. --Paul Gaita See more
