60 of 289 · most liked firstWatched a bunch of "Halloweeny" horror movies this year to celebrate Halloween tonight, and DUDE HOLY SHIT IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN PUMPKINHEAD YOU ARE MISSING OUT This movie ROCKS. The effects are awesome, the story is cool, it fits the Halloween vibe PERFECTLY, I couldn't recommend it more
positive · AI labelView post →Pumpkinhead (1988) 🎬 Stan Winston's directorial debut absolutely delivers! It plays out like a dark, twisted fairytale with an incredible atmosphere that completely sucks you in. And the creature? Amazing. Like the love child of a Xenomorph and the Wishmaster! #100DaysOfHorror #47 #Horror #FilmSky
positive · AI labelView post →PUMPKINHEAD (1988, VOD, #film) A shaky script and abrupt edits don't bring down this brutal, *gorgeous* horror about a demon brought to life to seek vengeance for a tragedy. Lance Henrikson anchors every scene while phantasmagoric creeps and swamp grotesqueries slither. h/t: @werematt.bsky.social
positive · AI labelView post →Watched Pumpkinhead 2: Blood Wings last night, because while I love the first movie, I've never seen any of the sequels, and frankly it should've stayed that way, not even Andrew Robinson made this a worthwhile watch. Just terrible.
negative · AI labelView post →R.L. STINE'S PUMPKINHEAD 2 premieres on Tubi this Fall. The continuation to the wildly popular movie begins when a new Pumpkinhead curse awakens in Redhaven, and Sam and Becka must stop it before it claims the entire town. Jem Garrard returns to write & direct the sequel.

neutral · AI labelView post →It took me this long to see Pumpkinhead, and I was not prepared for how smart and well-made it is. Was expecting a schlocky monster movie, not a beautiful fairy tale about the corrosive power of vengeance
positive · AI labelView post →If you haven't seen Pumpkinhead it's a very fun rural monster movie directed by Stan Winston (who also designed the creature)

Pumpkinhead is a pure delight of a movie to me, it’s got an incredible witch, it’s got a surprisingly heartfelt turn by horror stalwart Lance Henriksen, it’s got incredible effects (including a very wet puppet!!!), it’s got a very cute

Just a really fun Creature Feature/Slasher film that while not being overly scary makes for a great horror night with some laughs. Definitely one to add to your "Must-Watch" list if you're a horror fan and haven't seen it yet!

neutral · AI labelView post →Since I'm always interested in the latest Halloween-centric cinema, I checked out R.L. STINE'S PUMPKINHEAD (no relation to the 1988 film) and had a great time. I appreciate gateway horror that doesn't hold back...and I think this is going to be a regular seasonal watch for the new generation.

neutral · AI labelView post →Pumpkinhead The costume design for the monster in this is very, very good. And the film itself is a pretty solid all round B-movie slasher. Lance Henriksen is great, the folk horror atmosphere is certainly creepy and has a decent plot on loss and vengeance with a twist.
