Sutter Cane has the power of the author at his disposal, he is for all intents and purposes omnipotent, at the very least on a planetary scale.
Don't know shit about Poltergeist.
Yes, the only real limitation of the Djinn. Otherwise their power is essentially godlike for all intents and purposes.
Reality Warper as well. Cane, Djinn and the Poltergeist-Beast are all mentioned in TVTropes page of reality warpers in film.

And here I thought it was literally writing and dictating the entire movie. I also thought turning the observable world blue was better than warping his face into paper. I guess I was wrong, lololol.
How the heck can he dictate the actions of entities whom he himself serves? That doesn't even make any sense.
Because they couldn't kill the film's protagonist, and the stinger at the end shows that the entire film we just watched were the events of his novel.
Also, his wording before said scene where they chase down the protagonist implies as much. "I can't hold them back for much longer", referring to the door where the Old Ones were trying to intrude upon reality.
Oh, and of course he also create an entire town that was originally just a fictional place, and of course all the events of his prior books.

It's a really ****ing big limitation though.
Also the Djinn were explicitly disallowed so... Yeh, lol.

Such a feat requires massive physics altering/multiversal power
