Wishmaster 2 (1999)

Formulaic retread on the original plot, but it offers a few inventive deaths and more over the top acting by Divoff. A buglar uncovers the ruby prison containing an evil Djinn, and must face off with him after he has collected 1000 souls to save humanity from enslavement. The acting has dropped off, there are no remarkable cameos, but the makeup and effects work maintain a high level of quality. It is a guilty pleasure and will certainly please fans of the original!

Rating: 7/10.
Gore: 7/10.
