Another straight-to-DVD movie in the Wishmaster series, and probably the last considering its subtitle, although I'd welcome a fifth. John Novak (Wishmaster 3) returns as the Djinn, for the little time he's onscreen, in this horror/romance flick. Unlike the other WM movies, this has strong central characters and the Djinn took a "Pinhead from Hellraiser V" turn and spent most of his time offscreen, while the relationship between the two characters grew. There isn't too many wishes in this one either, but when there is, they make the wait worthwhile. (Watch out for "I wish for some KILLER sex" haha). Also, the opening is not simply the Djinn stone being found again, it's a young couple having sex. The first killing is hilarious though, ("Now I"m not the one holding a gun to your head") but the killings/wishes are basically too far stretched out. Wishmaster 3 had lots of killings but they usually didn't have too much gore. Wishmaster 4 is the opposite - few killings but lots of GORE. I'm telling ya, this is as much of a romance as it is a horror - even the tagline is "Evil Has Never Been So Seductive"! Go on out and rent this, or if you're a collector like myself then buy it (7/10)
