What in living sh*t did they do?!?!?!?

First of all,Wishmaster 1 and 2 were great movies,but Wishmaster 3 sucks ass!The one thing I didnt like about this movie,was that they ruined the whole concept of the Djinn,his make-up looks like it was from a low budget horror movie that came from the sixties or something.Another thing that they messed up on,was the Djinn's voice,it doesnt sound original anymore,it just sounds like a classic devil voice.When you look back to Wishmaster 1,you'll see that the plot is original,and that it was a masterpiece,but in part 3,the story is cheap and corny.In the first movie,the main character was smart,she used the three wishes to destroy the Djinn,in this one,they have to impale him with a sword from heaven in order to kill him,but really,that doesnt work at all!!The acting was very very crappy,none of the actors give any felling to the movie whatsoever.It seems like the director wanted to spice up the movie by adding lots of blood and gore,but really,all the gore effects look really bad,the scene where the Djinn slices off the professer's face,looks very crappy.I should also mention that the special effects was a joke.I'm serious about this,the movie made me depressed for a short period of time.I hate this movie with all my heart. I wish that every single copy of Wishmaster 3 would just banish into a crap filled sewer.I give this movie a 0 out of 10,I hate it that much.

Wishmaster 3: Devil Stone

The first film is good fun, while the second film was awful, but that didn't stop them making another made-for-TV sequel, even when they were forced to replace original lead actor Andrew Divoff. Basically, once again the fire opal is found, inside a hidden compartment of a strange box, and it is rubbed by university student Diana Collins (Final Destination 2's A.J. Cook). Following this, the Djinn (John Novak) trapped inside the jewel is released. The evil creature first encounters Professor Joel Barash (Jason Connery, Sean's son),and he offers to grant him anything he wishes for. The professor wishes to be loved by two of the most beautiful women, and in moments, two She Demons (Ruth Dubuisson and Angela Jackson) appear. However, after undressing and pleasuring him, they soon turn vicious and start biting him, and he is killed. The Djinn removes the face of the dead professor and is able to steal his identity. Wanting to find Diana, who freed him, the disguised Djinn visits university secretary Mrs. Kauflan (Muriel Hogue) to access Diana's file, she declines to do so. The secretary being bored of paperwork wishes for "files to burn up", her wish is granted, but it is her that is burned to death. The Djinn takes Diana's student file in an effort to find her and force her to make her three wishes, and, upon the granting of the third, release his hellish army upon the Earth. Diana realises there is something strange about Professor Barash and does everything she can to avoid him. She goes to a church for safety, but the Djinn is already there disguised as a priest. Diana's friend Anne (Daniella Evangelista),who is now the "professor's Teaching Assistant" makes the wish of "wanting to lose a little weight", to which she pukes up her guts in pain. Diana uses her first wish for her to stop having pain, the Djinn grants her wish, killing Anne. Wanting to find a way to stop or kill the Djinn, Diana uses her second wish to summon the archangel Michael, who was about to enter her body, but possesses the body of her boyfriend Greg Janson (Tobias Mehler). Michael and the Djinn fight, with the Djinn almost winning, until Michael and Diana escape to a theatre. Whilst trying to follow them, the Djinn (as the professor) encounters student Elinor Smith (Emmanuelle Vaugier) who makes a move on hi. Wanting him to seduce her, she wishes he would "break her heart", he takes this literally and kills her. Next, the Djinn goes to Diana's room and meets her friend Billy Matthews (Aaron Smolinski). Billy refuses to help him and tells the Djinn to "blow him", so the Djinn blows his body onto the head of a wooden bull on the wall, piercing him with its horns and killing him. Diana eventually returns and the Djinn threatens to hurt her friend Katie York (Louisette Geiss) unless she makes her third wish. Michael arrives and tells her that she can kill the Djinn, giving her the sword to do so, but she is not ready to use it, and it burns her arm, which Michael heals. Katie happens to find Billy's body and is pursued by the Djinn into a science room. After tricking her, Katie wishes for "a place to hide", and he sticks her head into a cage of lab rat, that bite her head and kill her. A second battle between Michael and the Djinn ensues, during which the Djinn's hand is cut off by the sword, but it grows back. Michael escapes with Diana in a car, but the Djinn jumps onto its roof and tries to hurt them. Diana is able to cause the Djinn to fall off, but also flips the car, mimicking the car accident that killed her parents years ago. In the end, Diana is tired of running and believes that if she kills herself, the Djinn will not get her third wish and cannot release his army of evil. Diana attempts suicide, jumping from the roof of a building, but the Djinn stops her from doing so. However, she gains the ability to wield Michael's sword, allowing her to kill the Djinn, and they fall from the building together. Michael heals Diana before returning to Heaven, the Djinn vanishes after being defeated, and Greg is returned to normal, and Diana declares her love for him. Also starring Kate Yacula as Young Diana, Rick Skene as Ted Collins, and Jan Skene as Mary Collins. Connery is slightly lame as the villain in human form, Cook is okay as the leading heroine, and Novak is nowhere near as good as Divoff. The few special effects are silly, the make-up for Novak is daft, the story and script are ridiculous, and there are hardly any twisted wishes, most of the film is filler chat in between, the only bit that got my attention was the two gorgeous demon women with their tops off, apart from that, a completely pointless and boring fantasy horror. Poor!

Beyond hellish

Horror is not my favourite of all the numerous film genres, but do still highly appreciate it. It has its fair share of classics with some deservedly iconic characters but has an equal number of misfires. So no bias against it, always actively made an effort not to show any bias against any genre (likewise with towards too) in order to be fair-minded.

Will admit right now to not being a fan of the 'Wishmaster' series, but watched them as part of my horror franchise completest quest. One of many quests, none of which finished but they have all been fascinating if variable rides.. Once checking out the first film, just had to see the sequels. Found the first 'Wishmaster' to be entertaining and watchable but am not sure as to whether to call it good. Can understand though as to why some have affection for it but it is easy to understand the criticisms. That can't be said for its sequels, like some franchises the series got worse with each film. While considering the second film lacklustre, it is a masterpiece compared to the others, which are really not worth watching unless for completest sake.

Am always trying to see the good in everything and everyone, which has led to being considered too trusting and being polite to avoid friction in real life. Regarding film there has been a tendency to get hot-headed and over-passionate when objecting to how people word contrarian opinions (again trying to see the good). Despite that attitude, 'Wishmaster 3' is just an abomination and a disgrace to the series.

Its least bad asset is AJ Cook, who tries but it is fair to say that she has gone on to much better things and she has significantly grown as an actress since (evident as JJ in 'Criminal Minds').

Everything else ranges from bad to horrendous. John Novak is a beyond terrible substitute for Andrew Divoff, whose absence is sincerely felt immediately and it leaves a huge hole. There is just no menace in Novak's interpretation or any dark humour, he is just goofy and comes over as incredibly irritating above all else. Plus his look has to be seen to be believed and that is not meant in a good way. As unfair as it is to say, Jason Connery possesses none of the charisma, suavity or talent of his father Sean and he never looks like his heart is in it. Tobias Mehler's role is just weird and never gels in the film, he doesn't do much with his role either. The characters don't engage and nothing is done to develop them or allow the viewer to endear to them.

Production values manage to be even cheaper than the vastly inferior visual quality of the second film. The camera work is drab and chaotic, while the gore effects (well the special effects overall) are cheap and overused to gratuitous effect. It is even more difficult trying to hear the dialogue without keeping a straight face, the excessive cheese becoming far too much. The deaths are not suspenseful or creative and the wishes are a long way from creepy or amusing, pretty dumb actually. The story is often over-stretched and uneventful, with many scenes going on for too long, lots of stupidity, no surprises and any few attempts at scares being completely lacking in imagination. Nothing is darkly humorous, original or suspenseful and mostly not interesting, and the direction lacks distinction and confidence.

Altogether, a nightmare. 1/10
