A group of teenagers are stalked by a vengeful genie while they are staying overnight in a museum. The 30-year-old teenagers drink, fool around and laugh wildly at each other’s jokes that aren’t even remotely funny. Creative and gruesome deaths go to waste in this terrible movie. FYI: If you’re in a pinch, you can foil a powerful demonic genie by escaping in the fog of a fire extinguisher.
I’m the opera-singing night watchman, “Guard Bob.” Had fun doing this flick, when I was living in Houston.
Got to tell you a story.
I was doing a musical called “Keep Dancing” (I think that was the title) at Long Wharf Theater in New Haven. The night the programs came out, I got a knock on my dressing room door. I open the door and a kid from the chorus says, “Wow, Roy, I just read your bio.” Of course I thought he was going to rave about my long, varied show biz career.
Instead he says in an excited voice, “I can’t believe it , you were in my least favorite film of all time!”
I didn’t have to ask him what film he was referring to.
But he told me anyway.
