Anyone know the source of the original template?
I wish I didn't. It's a terrible 1990s film called Wishmaster where the top guy is a Djinn who finds obnoxious ways to kill people with their wishes. He does that
smile the entire film.
That sounds awful, lol
He's trying to play the devil but comes off as the lead character from Sling Blade.
Is it fun to watch in a "bad movie" kinda way?
It's too derivative of everything that came out immediately before. I only found it because I was looking for other 1990s devil characters to find the one where Brad Pitt speaks Jamaican patois. This is the one without any redeeming qualities. Bad effects, acting that's directly lifted from other 1990s characters by bad actors, zany comedy- entirely forgettable.
Unfortunate, thanks for letting me know, comrade!
Don't leave me hanging on this one!
Meet Joe Black in case you can't watch the videos.

It's better than Rob Ford at least: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zMIrlvJfgvE
Boo, hiss!
I loved this movie AND its sequel (not the later entries); these two were EXACTLY the kind of horror movies I was into; and I think that smile is cool too!
I just can't do 90s zany/wacky. It's such a godawful style of postmodernist comedy which set comedy back like 15 years. Even the Joe Rogan anti-woke shit isn't as damaging in how much it shapes mass media.
Campy horror isn't a genre that I watch in general, but of the films I've seen I can't think of another which tries to be as zany as Wishmaster. It's like a 2010s reddit thread.
i knew i saw this movie before because i recognized he actors; but it was so unremarkable that i couldn't remember what it was called nor its plot. lol
Sank you
