Line 16:
=== Tropes: ===
* [[
* [[Affably Evil]]: The Djinn, most of the time.
* [[Always Chaotic Evil]]: The Djinn.
Line 73:
* [[Summon Bigger Fish]]: The protagonist of Wishmaster 3 tries this by wishing for the aid of the [[Archangel Michael]]. It only partly works. Michael has a sword that can kill the Djinn, but only the summoner can actually kill the Djinn and can only use the sword once they become worthy. Michael spends most of the film with her running. Still, his healing powers are useful.
* [[Temporal Paradox]]: In the first film, the protagonist's solution for getting rid of the djinn creates a grandfather paradox.
* [[The Worf Effect]]: Inverted. See [[Hey, It's That Guy!]] for the classic horror icons that are a list of his victims.
* [[Theme Naming]]: Characters Finney, Beaumont, Derleth and Demerest in the first film are named after fifties sci-fi and horror writers.
* [[Three Wishes]]: For the one who awoke the Djinn.
