A brilliant creature feature revenge film.
Great 80s horror. Classic tale of revenge but with a demon involved. Pumpkinead is grotesque and Henrikson gives another great performance.
Pumpkinhead is far from my favorite horror franchise but man does this movie deliver some good moments
Supernatural revenge film with Lance Henrikson in fine fettle as a man desperately seeking vengeance.
One hell of a good monster movie highly enjoyable
Throughly enjoyed myself with this one. It's not great, but the special effects are to die for, and still hold up very well.
Excellent creature design and a solid performance by Lance Henriksen.
an enjoyable classic with great atmosphere
I love Lance Henricson and there were some good scenes, so it's worth a watch.
A bit under-rated specifically for its practical effects. Not a standout film by itself but worth watching as a horror movie fan.
