Saw this along time ago, its very basic and formulaic but the two things that save it are the creature, designed by Stan Winston the genius and Henriksen. Apart from that its just an average boogieman thriller.

A good, solid slasher-style creature feature and a minor classic in its own right, Pumpkinhead is surprisingly well-executed. Not as strong or memorable as Friday the 13th or Halloween, but still certainly worth watching.

Lance Hendriksen is a fun hillybilly after revenge of his dead son who got run over by motorcycle man. Otherwise, the movie was kinda dumb.

er, better than i expected actually. There's something about creature movies made in the eighties, a cheap nastiness that i think adds to the flavour. With a bit more gore i think this could have been a little more memorable.

I didn't like the monster, the setting, the characters or the story. The name is great, but it doesn't look like a Pumpkin. Sorry, I don't consider it to be a great horror flick.

This um...scared the hell out of me as a child (11yrs). I don't even remember the storyline exactly but yea, who would when you were scared shitless. And I had nightmares for like a week.

Fantastic movie, especially for being one from a few decades ago! =D Why is this movie not as well known as the "Friday the 13th" and "Halloween" flicks?!
