Storyline

In this fourth series of the hell-raising Wishmaster, the Djinn unleashes his undying love and three wishes on a beautiful new victim named Lisa, whose crucial third wish is one that the Wishmaster cannot fulfill without leaving a trail of terror, devastation and blood in his wake. The evil brotherhood of the Djinns shall awaken from the flames of Hell. As the third wish is made, humankind had better be prepared for the apocalypse. Woken up once again, the repulsive Djinn returns to wreck the life of more innocent victims with his deadly fulfillments. In order to prevent the release of the evil brotherhood of the Djinns from Hell, Lisa must find a way to destroy the Djinn to stop the prophecy from being fulfilled.

Trivia

Both the third and fourth film have been noted as going more of an Action-Fantasy route as opposed to a Horror-Fantasy genre style like the last two films. Both sequel shave also been noted for their Cinemax late night programming type vibes (cheesy acting, softcore style nudity, low budget filmmaking).

Goofs

Oh...God...

I am personally a big fan of the original Wishmaster and its sequel. Wishmaster III and IV were atrocious, however. The idea of having a new Djinn totally sucked, and his costume is too lame to be scary. W4 could have been a much better movie if the film makers would concentrate more on the script, the acting, and most important (for a movie like this), the special effects.

Although there are those who beleive the whole Wishmaster series is coming to an end with this piece of c#*p, I believe that the series still have a chance to improve. Just look at the Toxic Avenger series; the fourth installment of the Toxic Avenger (Citizen Toxie) made up for the mess caused by TA part II and III. Maybe in a few years, there'll be a Wishmaster part V, which would totally ignore what happened in parts III and IV and follow the strong story line from part I. I wish Andrew Divoff would return as the original, and scariest Djinn that we all love.
