RIP Rutger Hauer.
R.I.P Rutger Hauer
Making a wish now: please review The Warlock 1989!
seriously, i need them to review it.
ive asked for this too..but i never wished for it, good luck ;)
@@RetroRanter Yeah, I really need a proper Warlock review, at least an hour long. It's such a forgotten gem
I love that part when the warlock goes to the fortune teller.
That part is so scary
Jeff Martin And the fat from the unbaptized child... ughhhh
PLEASE REVIEW THE WARLOCK!! OMG YEZ
This movie creeped me out when I was a kid. Andrew Divoff is brilliant
That which is eternal can not die.
But if it's any consolation dear Alex ... *THAT HURT LIKE HELL* .
And with strange aeons even death may die.
Andrew Divoff..not Stephen.
RIP Rutger Hauer, you will be missed, like tears in the rain.
This is like the expendables of 80’s horror. Great as always , OTSR 👊👊
The incomparable Angus Scrimm (Rory Lawrence Guy) voiceover was one of the best parts, and there were so many horror alum in this including Reggie Bannister and Joe Pilato being the most memorable for me.
*See’s Wishmaster Off the Shelf Review”
FINALLY!!!!! 😂😂👏🏾👏🏾
The Djinn was played brilliantly in the first 2
“What about my case, man?😂😂😂😂🤦🏽♂️
Iain's Description of the wishmaster's life after this first movie had me laughing my ass off. Good one man.
I’ve been waiting for this review!! You guys truly deliver. Thx
The cameo's are definitely the best part about this movie!!!! :)
Great review as always you guys!
Excellent review as always!! Guys please, Dogma, American Pie, Chasing Amy. So many classics that I would love to see you guys take on it.
I love this film! Top job guys.. Really enjoying watching all this reviews again, your discussions are amazing and me and my dad enjoying watching and debating along, peace dudes ✌🏻️👍🏻👊
Such a fun movie, you don't hear people talk about it much. As for the sequels, part 2 is enough, its not better but decent. Avoid part 3 & 4 oh my god. I just wish I didn't see them. Plus I love the scene where Nick is having a conversation with the Djinn. You can clearly see a black genie lamp next to the Djinn.
I kinda dig Wishmaster 2. It’s not winning any oscars but it’s fun and has some pretty cool moments. There’s some damn fun wishes in that movie.
yeah,wish i hadn't seen 3 or 4 too..like, seriously bad.
I enjoyed the sequel though. :)
Yay, finally doing one of my fave horrors… Thank you guys! 😃👍🏻
My main issue is that there's a few instances of the Djinn granting more than one wish to someone.
Trivia: Andrew's voice wasn't digitally altered, but he ate loads of jelly beans to coat the back of his throat & give him that sound.
Well done guys great review as usual much thanks.
Fantastic review as always. I'll always make time to listen to these. Makes me want to rewatch Wishmaster.
*Gotta drop a like for Wishmaster and OTSR*
I wish for more Gary and Iain content. :)
The first 2 were good, the 3rd and 4th were not that good. The Djinn killed 3 Horror icons in this movie! D&D taught me to be wary of wishes, so i knew what would kinda happen!
44:35 *NO! Fuck Nooo!!* LOL
Awesome review, guys! So funny, entertaining and informative at the same time!
I like "Wishmaster" best, part 2 is okay, but 3+4 not so much...
Freddy Kruger!
Candyman!
Jason!
Oh My Heart ❤️
R.I.P Joseph Pilato (1949-2019)..
His best role was Rhodes in Day of the Dead.
Wishmaster such a great movie from start to finish.
OMGs! Y'know who else Andrew Divoff played that went right over my notice even though I love the movie? He was one of the biker baddies in Another 48 Hours. Brother to the main baddy in 48 Hours, "Ganz". He's the guy who shoots "Jack" at the diner in the beginning.
I know this doesn't have Rutger in it, nor am I a patron of yours but if you could do a review of Ladyhawke, it would hit me right in the feels and make my year.
RIP Rutger Hauer!
Haha I'd rather watch WM 1&2 than Any of the Resident Evil sequel's :)
But again great upload guys
Tony Todd was also in the horror movie hatchet part 1 and 2
I've got a soft spot for this series because I loved it as a child
7 Golden Vampires and Krull lets go.. Please lol
I would absolutely love to see a remake of the Wishmaster
Andrew Divoff Iain, Andrew.
Amazing review as always guys! I was wondering if you guys could review Room 1408 at some point? would love to hear your thoughts on it
Cheers guys! Great review! I enjoy this film! 😊 👊
Gary's right, the second one is decent and has some worthwhile funny moments
love your reviews, greetz from germany
Can you guess PLEASE review The Vagrant (1992)?
I absolutely love it and it’s totally that corky horror you guys seem to love also 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I think with the Kane hodder wish the djinn didn't get his soul there is because it wasn't inherently selfish or malicious to another, just for him to go away
Aside from an hr giger creature... The jinn looks like Ivan ooze's offspring
I wish for you to do Wishmaster 2,3 & 4 as separate videos each 30 mins or more...you did it for the Hellraiser sequels!!!
Gary looks less like Waingro now
I’ve seen this movie here on TH-cam and I think it’s awesome! Criminally underrated fantasy/horror film imho.
UNDERRATED Movie
"Gary wants to watch a guy fuck himself." Lmao 😭😄😂🤣
Also *Turn Up*
Great review guys! Good horror flick 😊👍
Other horror movies with something that's supposed to not be scary that is ....
Child's Play 1-9

Just a few off the top of my head that were out before Wishmaster
...
I'm a huge Wishmaster fan. I remember getting it on ppv at my GFs house in 1997( maybe 98)
It was the first DVD I ever owned.
Loved part 2 as a guilty pleasure.
Fun movie. Love the lead actor ( Andrew divoff) haven't seen him in much.
Probably why this movie wasn't more popular, needed a famous lead.
I'm a huge fan of your reviews. I wasn't trying to be a dick by naming off movies. They just kept coming to me while typing.
Love the show.
Still hoping for a 1995 " Copycat " review someday.
Thanks guys. Keep up the great work
Awesome lol, I rewatched this and the second one recently and still love them. 3 and 4 can piss right off though. Divoff was great as Djinn especially that voice lol
Deffo watch number 2 btw! Hilarious haha
I saw this when I was like 3 and remember one part and was trying to find the movie when I got older and I found it and I was like awesome I'm not just a crazy kid who saw a crazy man
Holy shit, Cavity Colors just released a Wishmaster shirt plus can you guys review The Hitcher in memory of Rutger Hauer
I've only seen this film in the wishmaster series, it was okay but I doubt I'd watch it again
Human centipede trilogy please boys
I don't think there's enough contribution for them to sit through all of those. LOL!
Great review. I watched this as a kid. Somewhat fun but I am not sure I'd watch the series now.
Fun, campy, and original movie. Cool choice guys!
I love this movie this channel is awesome u have most my favorite films and u two guys do a great job I'm very entertained and I learn more about films I love it great job guys
Gary kept bringing up the Djinn granting some people more than one wish, as if that was a plot hole, but unless I'm missing something, there was no rule establishing that he couldn't do that if he wanted. As was also mentioned in the review, he gave the heroine a bonus wish before her 'real' wishes, so clearly he had some latitude in terms of how many wishes he gave people, and that doesn't contradict any of the rules established in the film, so far as I recall.
In terms of the quality of the films, the first one is a pretty good quasi-update/reworking of The Monkey's Paw; definitely worth a watch for anyone who likes the sound of the premise.
The second one is quite a big step down in my view, with much lower production values giving it a TV movie feel, and a pretty forgettable plot (I literally forgot I'd seen this film between my first and second viewing of it, which were around ten years apart). Andrew Divoff's presence prevents it from being a total write-off, but I'd only recommend to big fans of the original.
The third and fourth films look even more cheaply made than the second, share no continuity with the first two films (or each other), and have nothing to recommend about them that I can recall, even for big fans of the original. They are, quite simply, two of the worst horror sequels I've ever seen, making the Critters or Leprechaun sequels look alright by comparison.
This was a bit campy but fun. Andrew Divoff was terrifying as the Djin.
I like your show, i hope you guys live forever
As you wishhhhhh 🤫
I haven’t seen Wishmaster in 20 years.
1998 for me. So long ago.
Alexandria screaming scenes had me laughing hard! Made it more of a comedy horror but her screaming face was stupid!
What I do like about the sequels. Is they know what they are. And they're all in on the campy horror movies.
Why didn't she just wish that the Jinn never existed?? Lol.
Please review the whole series
Wishmaster 2 is actually pretty good...more a comedy in my eyes.
Djinn vs Warlock...who would win??
This was way better than the utter bollocks that was 'Warlock'.
The way you guys say "pawn shop", it sounds like "porn shop" and that would have been a totally different movie if the jewel had been brought to a "porn shop" ;-)
Making a wish now: Please review Andrei Tarkovsky's Andrei Rublev, Solaris, and Stalker!!!
Dudes, it's not Steven, it's ANDREW Divoff! You did it wrong TWICE!
I actually really enjoyed wishmaster 3 for some reason I can’t put my finger on
33:40 he look it's Ron Jeremy!
How are you both surving the heat today? lol
Hardly any reviewers have such good choices in the movies and games. Almost as if you picked things for reviewing that I WISH to be reviewed.
Ps. Some people got two wishes granted - this is a plothole. The lady changed into manequin first wanted to be paid in cash for the suit and her soul was used to charge the stone. Kane Hodder got 2 wishes as you mentioned. Nick also got two wishes as you mentioned- getting more valuable jewellery and million dollars. Also old lady got two wishes off-screen - revealing djinns true face and to never fear again.
Ps2. In wishmaster 2 it is explained that some wishes won't work - you cannot make djinn good or ask for more wishes than you are given - hence Alexandra's free wish - it doesn't count in reality because it affects the wishmaster himself. This is technically another plothole - blowing brains out is actually doable.
Ps3. Evil djinn apears in Long time dead (2002) and Red Sands (2009).
I granted my three Ps.
13:54 hats of to iian personation
So it's a who's who of horror movies, then? That sounds awesome.
Hope one day you guys will review Forrest Gump
Fun fact: the sorcerer who first imprisons the Djinn is supposed to be Zoroaster, the founder of the religion of Zoroastrianism. Also the inspiration for the red priests of R’hllor in Game of Thrones.
But dont they worship fire is Zoroastrizm? And djinns are spawns of fire here. Weird
Andrew divoff also appears in Xtro 3, surely one of the worst sci-fi horror movies ever made. Any of you guys who've seen that junk will know what I mean. Great review to a decent flick lads.
Man I'd love to have a voice like the Djinn, but I won't make a wish. Fuck that!
40:06
that's a SHREDDER
STATUE behind the
D'JINN'S right shoulder
Not really, but it reminded me of him, too.
@@sidnew2739
it looks like the
SHREDDER
ancestor from the
TMNT cgi series
that was actually an
EVIL UTROM
that was wearing ancient
JAPANESE ARMOR

👍
Whose the girl at 17:43?!? Lacey ?!?
42:36 that shit made me jump
You guys should do a review of the 2007 remake for Funny Games. Seriously!
They should do the original instead.
This is how I like to watch movies I’m not going to watch.
Hot Tip (from a woman) When we friend zone you we are trying to politely say we aren't attracted to you.
Men who whine about that make themselves less attractive. No woman wants a man who thinks she owes him something more 'cause he happens to want it. That isn't about being PC... It's just basic maturity.
Y'all aren't 15 ffs.
What were they thinking with jack the ripper?
I love 80s horror movie
Villains that follow a certain set of limiting rules are my favourite kind of horror movie vilain.
It gives them instant lore

👍👍
Who doesn't want to kill Ted Raimi
With inflation that was really like $1.4ish million he wished for lol
Escape From New York/L.A.
hey Ian and Gary I’m a quite a bit fan of your channel and was wondering if you could maybe do a reveiw or 20,000 leagues under the sea please.
That’s a cool idea, I’d watch that.
Gary! You look like Rick Grimes! Nice fucking beard
Why doesn't your Twitter work
Little disappointed guys, thought you'd do a Rutger Hauer movie, Buffy, Wedlock, Blind Fury...?
I'm guessing this was filmed in advance. maybe next week or something.
I wish for a better film series 😀 What if you wished for unlimited wishes?
👍🎬🎥
