Revealing mistake: After the Djinn escapes and there's an explosion in the lab, you can see some stuff on the ground that looks like it's on fire. The objects are not actually burning, the fire is being produced by a burner. There's no smoke from the objects, which is a dead giveaway that they're not actually "on fire." (00:18:15)

Continuity mistake: Towards the end of the Beaumont party scene, Alex and the security guys are in the hallway with the killer statues. One of the security men falls to the floor and his earpiece falls off. Throughout the scene, it keeps changing position from being on the floor next to him, to back on his ear, to being on his ear in a different position.
Djinn: My patience wears thin.
Alexandra Amberson: What are you going to do, kill me? Where's your third wish then?
Djinn: I don't need you dead, Alexandra. I just need you to wish you were.
Trivia: This movie features three horror stars. Beaumont is played by Robert Englund (Freddy Krueger), Johnny Valentine is played by Tony Todd (the Candyman), and the guard at the auction house is played by Kane Hodder, the man behind the mask as Jason Voorhees in several consecutive Friday the 13th films.
