Ngeke ngenze sengathi bengazi okuningi nge “Umphathi” uchungechunge kuze kube sekwephuzile. Ukukhula ngeminyaka yama-90s, umthombo wami omkhulu wesabekayo kwakuqhamuka kumafilimu ayemakethwa ngobuningi emidlalo yaseshashalazini nakumabonakude, futhi nganoma yisiphi isizathu “Umphathi” angikaze ngifinyelele ku-radar yami. Ngalokho kusho, kuleli sonto eledlule, abantu abahle eVestron Video bakhiphe ifayela le- “Uchungechunge lweqoqo le-Wishmaster” okubandakanya wonke amafilimu amane; “Umphathi”, “Isifiso 2: Ububi Abufi”, “Wishmaster 3: Ngaphandle Kwamasango Esihogo”, “Wishmaster 3: Ngaphandle Kwamasango Esihogo”, Futhi “Wishmaster 4: Isiprofetho Sigcwalisekile”, ezibuyiselwe kahle futhi zalungiswa kabusha. Ngingazi ukuthi yini okufanele ngiyilindele, ngithathe isonto ukubheka ngokweqile zonke zozine, futhi ake ngikutshele ukuthi bekuyisihogo esisodwa sesipiliyoni.

Ake siqale ngeyangempela “Umphathi”, ifilimu eqale konke. Okungijabulisile ukuthi ngithande ukuthi ngiyithande yonke le filimu! Ifilimu yokuqala kulolu chungechunge isethula ku-Djinn omubi, wobudemoni, odlalwe ngokumangazayo ngu-Andrew Divoff, okhululwa etsheni lakhe lomlilo oyimfihlo, ebekwe lapho ngumthakathi. IDjinn kumele inikeze umnikazi wayo (aka the waker) izifiso ezintathu ukuze ikwazi ukubizela ibutho lalo elibi likaDjinn eMhlabeni. Le filimu iqondiswa yinganekwane yeFX uRobert Kurtzman, futhi inama-cameo amangalisayo avela kuRobert Englund, Kane Hodder, Tony Todd, Angus Scrimm noTed Raimi. Okwenza le movie ijabulise kakhulu inhlanganisela yethalente kanye nokhisimuzi u-Andrew Divoff akuletha etafuleni njengoDjinn / Nathaniel Demerest oxutshwe nemiphumela ebonakalayo engakholeki.

Iya phambili “Isifiso 2: Ububi Abufi”, Ngisathola izinto eziningi engizozijabulisa ngazo, kodwa ngizovuma, ngezwa sengathi ilahlekile enye yaleyo ntelezi eyayinayo i-movie yokuqala. Kungenzeka ngenxa yokuthi le filimu ibinomqondisi omusha, uJack Sholder, noma mhlawumbe udaba lwendaba belungakhangi, kepha noma kunjalo, bengisazithola ngijabule kakhulu ngale filimu. Okwamanje, i-Djinn kumele iqoqe imiphefumulo eyi-1001 ukuze i-Apocalypse iqale, nokuthi iyiphi indlela engcono yokuthola le miphefumulo kunasejele. U-Andrew Divoff uphinde abuye njengoDijinn wobusathane futhi ubukeka emangalisa njengoba ayenjalo kwifilimu yokuqala. Ngokuphathelene nemiphumela ebonakalayo, ayikho ezingeni elifanayo nefilimu yokuqala, kepha isamangaza impela futhi kunegazi elifanelekile futhi eligelezayo ukuze kuluthise inkanuko yama-gorehounds.

Ifilimu yesithathu yilapho siqala khona ukuya eningizimu ngokushesha okukhulu. Benginethemba lokungena “Wishmaster 3: Ngaphandle Kwamasango Esihogo” ngenxa yokuthi ngijabule kangakanani ngama-movie amabili okuqala, kodwa lokho kungenxa yokuthi bengicabanga ukuthi u-Andrew Divoff uzobuya. Isexwayiso se-Spoiler: akabuyeli lokhu noma okulandelayo. Esikhundleni sakhe kukhona umlingisi uJohn Novak, ongesabeki, kepha angalethi lelo zinga elifanayo lentelezi yokuhlekisa namahlaya angama-90 uDivoff anawo. Siphinde saba nomqondisi omusha, uChris Angel (hhayi umlumbi), futhi kunokushintsha okucacile kwethoni nomoya. Ngalesi sikhathi, i-Djinn ibangela isiphithiphithi nokubulawa kwabantu eyunivesithi yasekolishi, ngoba kungani? Ngokuqondene nemiphumela ebonakalayo engiyithandile evela kumabhayisikobho amabili okuqala, ayengeyona imininingwane eningiliziwe noma ehlukile njengaleyo esemafilimini angaphambilini. Futhi, ifomu “lomuntu” likaDjinn, uSolwazi Joel Barash (Jason Connery) lalicasula kakhulu futhi umuntu wakhe wangicasula kuyo yonke ifilimu.

Uma ngicabanga "Wishmaster 3" kubi, awu ndoda, bengingenelwe yi-doozy nge “Wishmaster 4: Isiprofetho Sigcwalisekile”. Ngicabanga ukuthi jikelele le filimu ivele yangicasula. Umqondisi uChris Angel nomlingisi uJohn Novak babuya futhi ngenzalo yakamuva futhi ngiyafunga ukuthi le movie iyisiphambano phakathi kwesabelomali esiphansi se-horror flick + i-soft core porn + leyo ndawo lapho uJack adonsela khona uRose njengenye yamantombazane akhe "Titanic". Le filimu bekufanele ukuthi ibe yibhayisikobho ethusayo kodwa idlale ngokufana nenganekwane yothando enegazi nokujikijelwa. Hlanganisa lokho noDjinn omubi ngokuzumayo onomlingisi owaziyo, futhi owesabekayo, owesabekayo, ngasala ngidumele futhi icasukile ngenxa yokuthi izinga lalawa mafilimu lehle kangakanani. Ukuphela kwento engangiyijabulela ngalesi sitolimende kwakunguDjinn osesimweni somuntu, edlalwa ngumlingisi uMichael Trucco. Ubekezeleleke kakhulu kunenguqulo yokugcina ku- "Wishmaster 3".

Yize amafilimu amabili okugcina eshiye okuningi ongakufisa, ngisawajabulele amafilimu amabili okuqala anele ukuncoma leli qoqo ukwethusa abalandeli kulo lonke i-spectrum. Okubonwayo kubukhali futhi kuhle ngemibala evela esikrinini okwenza le ibe yinye yamafilimu abuyiselwe kangcono engiwabonile. Leli qoqo ligcwele nezici ezikhethekile ezibandakanya izingxoxo, ukuphawula, izithombe zangemuva kwezigcawu, nokuningi. Kukonke, ngiyajabula ukuthi ngibe nethuba lokubuka wonke lawa mafilimu, futhi yize lawa amabili okugcina ebuhlungu impela, bengizokhathazeka uma ngithi ingxenye yami ibingawajabuleli. Abalandeli be “Umphathi wesifiso”Nakanjani bazofuna ukuqokelela leli qoqo.
