A monkey's paw talisman has the power to grant three wishes but they come with a heavy price.
I watched this on the Horror Channel and it is very typical of many of the movies that they screen - it's not good, but then it's not bad either. Just average. Stephen Lang as the crazed, undead Tony Cobb is by far the best thing here, embarking on a gruesome killing spree. At the other end of the spectrum we have a guy called Catfish, who mumbles so badly the film would have benefited from subtitles!
Apparently this film is based upon an old story which I confess to being unfamiliar with and it has given me good cause to seek out the 1948 version.
