Night of the Living Dead 3D: Re-Animation (2012)

A prequel to NotLD 3D (2006), which was a remake of Romero’s original NotLD (1968). It has Jeffrey Combs, so I thought, 'why not?'
There's some competency from cast and crew, but I suspect that even the most ardent lover of corpses will be left cold after 88 minutes of what resembles a zombie offshoot of the old ITV soap Crossroads (1964-88) with cheap CGI. I derived more entertainment from imagining Benny turning up than I did from anything in the film itself.

Wishmaster 2: Evil Never Dies (1999)


Following closely to the plot of the first movie, Mr. Djinn (using the same face of Andrew Divoff, from the last one) is once again inadvertently awakened and goes about his plan of collecting 1,001 souls in order to set upon his race to take over the world. Fun, if you enjoyed the first movie. I personally take a great deal of satisfaction watching bad people being punished for their crimes.

Note: There are two more entries in this series, but they veer so far off the map, I'm not even going to waste my time with them. Let's just say...2 and 1.
