Quotes

Wishmaster is a washout in its painfully obvious attempt to launch a new horror franchise. Unconscionably sadistic, even by genre standards, and mind-numbingly formulaic, this bloody mess opened nationwide Sept. 19 without benefit of press previews, and appears destined for a quick trip to video-store shelves. — Variety

As a matter of personal policy, I never walk out on a movie, but that doesn't mean that I don't occasionally toy with the thought. In the course of an especially bad film, the seductive lure of getting up and heading for the exit can be almost overpowering. During Wishmaster, that sensation began creeping up on me only a half-hour into the movie. I stayed to the bitter end, but it was a struggle. My best advice to anyone reading this review -- even someone who considers himself or herself a fan of horror movies -- is to stay away. That way, you won't have to wish that you had never coughed up the money in the first place. — ReelViews
