Conjuring the Genie

Britain has seen a resurgence of indie horror in recent years, and CONJURING THE GENIE is one such movie. It has pretty good production values compared to many similarly-themed indies, but that doesn't make it much cop. Indeed, this is less a CONJURING rip-off than a WISHMASTER cash-in, with an ancient amulet unleashing a genie who looks like a guy in a full-body Halloween costume. The story that follows is limited and laboured, with a heck of a lot of gabble and very little in the way of on-screen action or plot development. The actors aren't the worst, but the execution is enough to send you to sleep.

As with other reviews, I absolutely agree this is a terrible movie but one of those that's worth watching if you want a bit of a laugh and don't want a movie that is going to make you think. Very predictable and a bit silly. Definitely one you can easily watch by yourself if you get scared easy as the effects are in no way scary. The jumpscares you expect to happen are disappointingly not scary at all. You will defo need subtitles for the actors who mumble but the sound levels aren't too bad with this one, apart from the loud music that plays every time the Djinn makes an appearance. This covers the dialogue completely. If you want an easy watch with a few unintentionally funny bits, I'd recommend but it isn't a movie I'd ever waste time on again.

I respect they made this kind of film this year. Maybe they are so courageous...? It's a movie that shows everything you can show while saving your budget.

It's a film that you can't help but be surprised by. Horror movies require surprising scenes, so if you are a horror movie fan, you will love it. Watch by yourself while eating popcorn.

It's not a bad horror movie for killing time. The acting of the actors is good. However, there were also clear limitations of the low budget. The makeup is a bit disappointing and the probability is not great. It's not a bad horror movie to just watch without thinking.

I don't know about the others, but one poster is terribly frightening. He reminds me of the old movie The Grinch. You can tell by looking at the poster without needing to mention the contents.

If someone sees something resembling a monster, the appropriate reaction is to scream, not act like this creature is the creep next door. So disappointed. How is the trailer so good and the acting so bad?!

OMG another movie containing the Djinn. Should've called it Wishmaster V or something like that. Its the same thing just a different story line BORING.

'The acting is my favorite part, staggered dialogue, more wood than a timber yard.' I lifted this word for word from another review because all of us have seen badly written, low budget movies but it was almost as if the actors had to pad this out to 1hr 26m See the Wishmaster series for a better version of the twisted djinn, W4 was a strong rebound from the weak W3. 'W2: Evil never dies' even says the name of the movie in the movie and you can repeat for your amusement ... Evil .. Never ... Dies. I am easily amused but even I think poorly of this one.
