This movie has one of the most amazing practical effects monsters created in the 80's at it's forefront in Pumpkinhead. At it's root, it's a typical monster-kills-bad-teenagers film, but it also dives into themes of backwoods witches, the difference between the... Full review

I actually have kind of a soft spot for Pumpkinhead 2 , mindlessly entertaining trash that it is. I suppose we can thank director Stan Winston for creating a low-budget 1989 monster movie that the fanbase really embraced, and (as always) those loyal fans are being summarily punished for making the original Pumpkinhead an underground hit on home video. ...

Final thought: The flick's too good to pass over, even with the studio's lackluster presentation. Fantastic beastie, and Lance delivers a powerful performance. He's in darn near EVERYTHING, and he's usually the best thing in every flick he makes. ... Full Review
