Directed by Robert Kurtzman (the famous make-up artist). Written by Peter Atkins. Starring Andrew Divoff, Tammy Lauren, Chris Lemmon, Kane Hodder, Tony Todd and Robert Englund.
Plot: a Djinn (like a genie, but meaner) is awoken by a woman and starts granting people wishes, but it never goes well.
The movie starts by saying that the Djinn will grant three wishes to whoever wakes him up and that after he grants the wishes, he’ll be free, but you don’t want that. However, in the movie he goes around granting wishes to everyone, not just the girl who woke him up. And this usually ends with someone dead. He takes souls, too, and we’re not sure why that is either. He’s like a really fucked up Leprechaun. It just doesn’t make any sense. Which is why we didn’t like it.
We love all the people that were in this movie. They’re all so nice. But that can’t make us like a film. It made up the rules as it went along and the kills were cheap. The end was good, but the rest was ridiculous.
I suppose I could list my favorite movies here, but instead I'll give you a strange glimpse into what makes me TaraRomero.
1. I love comic books. I'm particularly into anything X-Men related and everything Harley Quinn.
2. My celebrity crush is Chris Evans (AKA Captain America). He's even more political than I am and he's not afraid to show it, plus he's really, really hot.
3. I love baseball and more importantly the Boston Red Sox, even though I've never even been to Boston. LOL
4. If I won the lottery tomorrow, after paying off my debts, I'd buy a smallish house somewhere in Southern California. I have got to get out of Texas.
5. My cartoon hero is Tina Belcher. Her and I share a soul.
6. I've been rescuing dogs since I was a teenager and firmly believe that fur babies belong inside and on the furniture.
7. I'm very much addicted to Hallmark Channel. I love their sappy movies, especially the Christmas ones.
8. I have 2 tattoos. An "E" on my ankle for my first lost fur baby. And a ladybug on my wrist named George after George Romero told me he liked it. May he RIP.
9. I'm a bit of a night owl. Not that I go out a lot, it's just that I prefer to be up at night and asleep during the day. I'm a vampire like that.
10. I have an unhealthy relationship with potato chips. My favorite are Herr's Sour Cream & Onion.
