Pumpkinhead: Movie Review

In “Pumpkinhead”, a demon called forth responds to a grieving father’s need for vengeance.

Mom says that we watched this movie when it first came out.  Unfortunately, I don’t remember it.  I actually thought that the film would be stupid, but it really is a stylish, atmospheric chiller.  Furthermore, the fiend reminds me of the creature in “Aliens”.  I like that link between man and beast too.

Nevertheless, I have to ask – Why did the townsfolk call the monster Pumpkinhead?  Is it because it’s orange?  Or is it because the upper half of its face is round?

Other than that, I think this is an excellent picture.
