Ever heard of something called the Reserve List?
@Shadoflaam
Go up against one, you'll find it's still an incredibly viable black card even today. Not only is it very powerful but it hits the board turn 1 with Dark Rituals. Sure, Phyrexian Obliterator will do that for you just fine, but this works better in 2-color decks, not just monoblack. It might be expensive, but that's a.) it's age and b.) the fact that when you play it, you get your money's worth out of it. So the Obliterator's better, how do you make up for it? Run both in monoblack Legacy. This card too expensive for you to buy? Try its cheaper cousin, Grinning Demon. Worried about the life loss? Learn to play the game.
I got into the game too late to truly enjoy this card, but I still appreciate and respect both its history and its power. 5/5

the only problem with juzam djinn back in the day, was his propensity for getting two-in-one'd. For example: My first turn: swamp, dark ritual, sol ring, juzam djinn. done. His first turn: plains, cast swords to plowshares. done. :P

I'm honestly surprised this hasn't gotten a REAL reprint. This is actually slightly below the power level of most of the weaker mythic rares today. This could run as a rare in M12 without anybody batting an eye.

I love how a lot of the old cards have that blank colored background. Very Nostalgic, haha it reminds me of the old backgrounds on windows 95. Good times!

One of very few cards I would give 5/5 to for ANYTHING other than strength/playability. I remember in '94 seeing a player at my LGS running 4 of these w 4 Hippies, 4 Hymns, 4 Racks and the like... I fell in love. I sold my last one last year during an experience w an ex gf. Regrettably so... Juzam, I will possess you again. You will ALWAYS be the baddest m**********r on the block. See you soon.

Use it with Spirit Link and get a 5/5 that doesn't really deal damage to you. Not the best combo I'm sure, but why not try it.
