A FANTASTIC FANTASY HORROR FX EXTRAVAGANZA!!!
9 May 2019
WOW what a cool fantasy Horror wishmaster is as it's full of amazing practical FX with just a hint here & there of c.g.i as this was 1997 before c.g.i completely took over & that's one of the great things about this Horror gem it's stunning creature designs & inventive grotesque death scenes.

The Wishmaster is an evil demon known as a Djinn basically an evil genie that gets let loose on modern day California 1997. The creature looks FANTASTIC thanks to the legendary Robert Kurtzman who is a practical FX wizard as well as the director of Wishmaster & he's a real genre talent.

I have alot of Nostalgia & love for Wishmaster since i owned it on video when it first came out to buy way back in the 90's & I've loved it ever since. Wishmaster has a real sense of fun about it with dark humour & AWESOME creatures & lots of fun horror legend cameos & one of my fave little cameo bit parts is of Joe "captain Rhodes" Pilato as a drunken crane operator.

If your a horror movie buff you will absolutely love this pure 90's fantasy Horror gem it's become abit of a cult classic now & so it should!!!!

Wishmaster is just good creature feature Horror fun full of very creative fx & crazy death scenes IT'S excellent.
