The climax takes place in a casino, a paradise of greed perfectly suited for the Djinn. When a gambler wishes to "go on a roll," his body transforms into a giant, bloody die that bounces across the craps table. When another wishes for the casino to "pay off," the slot machines violently fire real coins like machine-gun bullets into the crowd. Directed by Jack Sholder: A Horror Veteran at the Helm
