Was this review helpful? Yes - NoNo more strolling thru pumpkin patches!
Good movie and story. The demon monster looked great and the make-up for the witch was perfect. It was interesting how the demon and Winston become one and in the end Winston take his place.

Pumpkinhead has the potential to be one of the
greatest horror movies ever made. Effects
master Stan Winston does incredibally well for
his first job at directing. I think he spends
so much time creating hideous freaks for other
people, that he just wanted to make is own
original monster movie. The reel star of the
movie is Pumpkinhead. It just happens to have
an excellent cast for him to mutilate!Was this review helpful? Yes - NoBETTER THAN ALIENS!
SCARIEST LOOKING MONSTER EVER! SCARY MOVIE! SEE IT AND THEN BUY IT! CUZ YOU WILL LOVE IT!
Was this review helpful? Yes - Noawsome but not the greatest horror movie
Nice effects, good plot, and just a kick ass looking monster with an attitude!
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoDumb and boring yet kinda good
The last half hour of this movie is about all that's worth watching. Pumpkinhead is pretty cool though. He's an unstoppable force. Jason Voorhees would be runnin from this demonic creature!!!

Your enjoyment of this film will hinge upon your ability to laugh at horror movies. "Pumpkinhead" occupies the middle ground between hillbilly action movies like "Deliverance" or "Next Of Kin", and campy '80s horror movies like "Prom Night" or the "Friday The 13th" series. A decent job is done showing the tenderness and love between father and son, and the death of the boy does tug at the viewer. This plot device could have been handled jarringly, as in other horror movies of its day. The movie doesn't really shift into gear until the second act, when the boy's father makes a dark pact with a local conjure woman for revenge. The special effects are nicley done, and the Appalachian setting is used effectively for some nice staging. An interesting climax, and an eerie epilogue, make this film a lot of fun to watch. It's no horror classic, like "The Exorcist" or even its contemporaries "Hellraiser" and "Nightmare On Elm Street", but it's a great movie for watching with a ton of friends and a big bowl of popcorn.
