Never Dies Extra Quality: Wishmaster 2- Evil

In this sequel, the writers leaned into the Djinn’s dark sense of humor. He doesn’t just kill people; he "monkey’s paws" them. He twists words to their most literal, horrific conclusions.

Divoff delivers these ironies with a Shakespearean villain’s delight, making him one of the most underrated horror antagonists of the decade.

Morgan, who discovers she has the ability to unwish (revoke wishes), becomes the Djinn’s primary target.

With his gaunt cheekbones, gravelly voice, and a smile that suggests he knows something you don’t, Divoff elevates every scene. In this sequel, the writers leaned into the
