Amazon.com: A starkly original visual treat, this Halloween-themed exercise in terror is uncommonly well made, seeking to add yet another creature to horror film lore. A group of teenagers camping in a remote mountain resort accidentally kill a boy and cover it up, and his aggrieved father (Lance Henriksen) vows revenge. Enlisting the help of a local witch, he conjures up a mythic demonic monster to kill those responsible for his son's death. The plot and dialogue are not very original, but the creepy mood and some fine work by director Stan Winston (the special effects whiz behind Jurassic Park) make Pumpkinhead an eerie gothic horror tale and great viewing for Halloween nights. --Robert Lane

Or do you go knocking on the local witch's door to call upon a demon to seek vengeance for you? For Ed Harley (Lance Henrikson) he's chosen the latter and it turns out he might've gotten more than he bargained for.
"Pumpkinhead" is a delightful horror movie that is overlooked, but shouldn't be. It's exceptionally dark and creepy, and is capable of providing some scares here and again. What stands out most with "Pumpkinhead" is the creature itself. It's convincingly life-like and looks better than most CGI monsters do nowadays.
"Pumpkinhead" is a straightforward horror flick, you get what you pay for. And what you get is awesome creature FX, teens getting killed in gruesome fashions, and ... Read More
