Saw this on the Syfy channel in 2003 and it scared the hell out of me! One of the most terrifying creatures brought to life by VFX artist Stan Winston.
People often say the death of Gage Creed in Pet Sematary was soul crushing. IMHO the death of Lance Henriksen's son in Pumpkinhead was way more powerful in its execution of the loss of a child to tragic circumstances.
I've always liked the movie Pumpkinhead because ,well at least the first one, because he only goes after those he's assigned to go after he, doesn't just kill for the sake of killing.
Pumpkinhead has been like that in just about every movie though. Pumpkinhead 2: Blood Wings is somewhat of the exception since he wasn't summoned the exact same way as the first movie.
@@DegenWeeb The first one will always be the best one. They went from teenagers to I believe last Pumpkinhead movie was like a cosplay of the Hatfields and McCoys.
@@grapeshot the original is always the best, but the second and third movies really added more to the Pumpkinhead lore, which the comics also expanded on. My only complaint with Pumpkinhead: Ashes to Ashes was the bad cgi everything else was interesting. Pumpkinhead: Blood Feud wasn't the best, but it was an interesting take on Romeo & Juliet mixed with the Hatfield/McCoy feud.
That's because he's more an extension of the summoner's own hatred and rage, rather than a fully autonomous entity. Pumpkinhead, at least in the first film, probably isn't even exactly sentient in the sense that you or I would understand the term.
As was once pointed out to me, a movie set up of something like 'Pumpkinhead versus the Creeper' practically writes itself. Two rural American horror legends (Pumpkinhead is more Southern Gothic as this video observes and Jeepers Creepers more Midwest Horror, but the two 'ranges' of the respective monsters could reasonably overlap at least in some measure). With the original creator of Jeepers Creepers no longer attached to the character, that issue is no longer an obstacle. The idea of a creature that kills to feed in a regular cycle initiating a sequence of events that results in everyone's favourite demon of vengeance being summoned back by revenge fuelled relatives or lovers fits with the lore of both franchises. Once law enforcement and possibly locals ignorant of what is happening start trying to halt the general carnage, things would only escalate as more and more individuals become targets for Pumpkinhead as they obstruct its goals, and the Creepers does what it does best.
Keep away from Pumpkinhead, Unless you're tired of living, His enemies are mostly dead, He's mean and unforgiving, Laugh at him and you're undone, But in some dreadful fashion, Vengeance, he considers fun, And plans it with a passion, Time will not erase or blot, A plot that he has brewing, It's when you think that he's forgot, He'll conjure your undoing, *Bolted doors and windows barred,* *Guard dogs prowling in the yard,* *Won't protect you in your bed,* *Nothing will, from Pumpkinhead*
Actually, he does speak. I think he does it twice. I know the first time he says the girl's name putting her in a trance to make her leave the cabin and, i believe,the second time he mocks them saying one of their friend's name and laughs
I'm so happy to see a big youtuber talking about a film that means a lot to me. PumpkinHead is such an interesting character and I wish I was around when it came out in theaters.
Thanks for this. Been wanting a breakdown of this movie. One of my favorite cult horror films. I was like 9 watching it and I was terrified of Pumpkinhead but as I got older I loved the character
Man. As a kid in the 90's I loved watching the classic horror slasher movies. None of them actually scared me aside from jump scares except for this movie. The creature design along with the sound effects when it was shown on screen. Freaked me the hell out. I love the movie now and back then as well, but it was one of the only movies that made me cover my face while watching
I was home from school sick and stumbled on Pumpkinhead while channel surfing. Absolutely fell in love with the story and monster design. Sequels were Meh, but the original was great.
Pumpkinhead was my 1st scary movie as a kid and it scared thee F outta me, but I still think on the memory fondly because it introduced me to my 1st guilty pleasure. I used to rewatch the VHS when my parents were asleep and always had my trusty meat cleaver under the pillow for emergencies 🤣 Thank you so much for this review and for bringing my inner kid back out to play before the big 4-0.✊🏾❤
My mom had me watch this movie with her and now whenever people talk about good special effects movies like The Thing or Beetlejuice i throw this little hat into the ring and surprisingly not many people have seen this franchise
Pumpkin Head is such a unique horror movie, I'm glad they didn't make to many of them and ruin each sequel worse than the last; like other horror franchises that I also still inexplicably love.
This was the first horror movie I was allowed to watch as a kid and to this day (34yrs old) I still randomly think of Pumpkinhead when I'm in the dark.
I've only recently come to realize why I find this movie so compelling. This movie has "Show, Don't Tell" down to an art! To start, I've always found the title of the movie, and the character/monster, to be incredibly unnerving. It's such a seemingly goofy name and, in fact, has put a lot of people off from it. However, the sense that the name sounds like something a child would come up with actually brings up some horrifying implications. And that is where the pieces of this story begin to fit together. Originally, the monster was simply going to be called "Vengeance" and the movie's title was "Vengeance: The Demon". Pretty bland, yes? The poem by Ed Justin, a friend of one of the writers, gave inspiration for the name that would be used. It works well because it gives a folklore aspect to the monster and the setting. We see in the present day setting of the movie that Pumpkinhead is something kids tease each other with to scare them, a campfire story that makes it seem that very few people really actually believe it exists. Yet they are clearly aware of some unusual happenings in their quiet corner of the world. Where the real horror sets in for more is how, with absolutely zero explanation, after Ed Harley has the demon conjured, EVERYBODY holes up in their homes. Adding to it, it seems that an unnatural darkness takes over the area, though we are given the impression that the events of the movie start later in the day. Perhaps this helps to tip people off, but it's never revealed for sure and a big part of me thinks it's much better that way. Most stories would have the younger characters believe in the monster, but the adults remain skeptical. This movie quickly establishes that the adults don't just believe, but they know EXACTLY what's going on. There are routines and practices in place for when the demon is conjured and it's as routine as the precautions one takes when a bad storm blows through; just hunker down and wait for it to pass.
Thanks for the video!! See you later!! Stay safe. Also RIP Ivan Reitman, director of Ghostbusters Twins and Stripes. He passed away last night at the age of 75.😔
Can we please talk about that scene where Pumpkinhead starts to resemble the father? That scene for me is the scariest, as it dawned on me that it was becoming him, it STILL gets under my skin to this day 😬😬😬
I wish pumpkinhead actually looked more like a pumpkin, similar to Sam’s design in Trick R Treat. I always felt he looked too much like an Alien than a demon
I was 13 when Pumpkin Head came out. It scared the hell out of me, and I loved every minute of it! I remember thinking how much the creature looked like the Xenomorph from Alien.
I have never seen the whole movie just clips here and there, maybe one day that will change but I have my doubts. Still I will admit I like the story and lore behind it and Lance is damn good actor. As for a recommendation I would once again recommend the Swedish horror movie Besökarna aka The Visitors from 1988.
One of my favorite horror movies, and still stands up today. Great video, but I have to admit, my heart sank when you used the never-welcome term, “getting a reboot”. Classics need to be left alone. Out of the hundreds, if not thousands of reboots and remakes, there are maybe five- total- that were any good. Thanks for covering this awesome movie, though- I love your channel.
I never understand critics at all. When it's about a movie that showcased the in-depth lore, classic emotional roller-coaster and well cast performaces. Critics usually rate it well below. But if a movie is about cliche cheesy, cut-lame jokes, rush plot, vomiting CGI. They then rated it as 5 star. Seriously wtf?
I really want to call Pumkinhead on an astronaut in space to see how on earth(The irony of that phase in this context) Pumkinhead would get him in space. 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Might interest you, a movie that I remember, comes under various names - Frog Dreaming, The Quest, The Go Kids... stars the kid from ET who finds a forgotten pond with a bunyip at the bottom of it. Maybe not horror but a good watch. Another one is Watcher in the Woods from 1980 or thereabouts - a Disney movie. Bit dated by todays standards, but really knew how to build atmosphere.
Now this is the story Of a good man named Ed Left his son for a moment Returned, found him dead Recalls a tale as a boy he was told Of an evil witch, so wicked, so old Seeks a farmer's advice he will not give His oldest son knows just where the witch lived He took Ed there but refused to go in The boy knew what was about to begin She had the power to avenge the dead It cost your soul, now come with me Ed I'm gonna take you where your body will lie I'm gonna take you there, my friend I'm gonna show you where your life will end I'm gonna bring you here again Dig up this grave, the old lady said The thing we need it lies there dormant, sleeping with the dead You understand what you ask of me Not even death can set your soul free I cast this curse and you will find An evil darkness deep inside your vengeful mind God damn you to hell, he could not restrain He already has son, the witch did explain I'm gonna take you where your body will lie I'm gonna take you there, my friend I'm gonna show you where your life will end I'm gonna bring you here again Pumpkinhead, Pumpkinhead This curse I cast, you're Pumpkinhead! "Keep away from Pumpkinhead unless you're tired of living His enemies are mostly dead, he's mean and unforgiving."
I remember when this movie came out. It was terrifying as a child. Not to mention, I lived in the woods at the time, and had to walk through them to get to the bus stop every morning for school. Needless to say, after watching that movie, my little brother and I RAN to the bus stop every morning!
I remember watching this as a young teen on the then Scifi channel. I have never seen it since, so it's good to see you bringing up some older/classic movies also
very cool breakdown never knew that the original Predator costume would have pieces used in the Pumpkinhead costume. I like that touch that not only are the two movies tied together by Stan Winston but also because parts from one movied were used in the other. Now that is a hunt I'd like to see the Predators go on.
Yet another really good og of horror, I will say this is the closest thing to scp 096 that we can see. Granted no picture is involved. Do you agree Niat?
I remember watching this as a Kid, Scared the Sh*t out of me, literally was terrified... Nightmares & all one of the scariest monsters/film as a Kid... Please Keep The Lights On 😲😱😂
One my favorite horror movies pumpkinhead til this day freaks me out and I'm 31 years old I hope the reboot is special pumpkinhead deserves a true comeback the first one is truly the only good one in the the series
The song Pumpkinhead by the Misfits is what got me to watch this movie. Such a good movie. Recalls a tale as a boy, he was told Of an evil witch, so wicked, so old Seeks a farmer's advice he will not give His oldest son knows just where the witch lived He took Ed there but refused to go in The boy knew what was about to begin She had the power to avenge the dead It cost your soul, now come with me Ed I'm gonna take you where your body will lie I'm gonna take you there, my friend I'm gonna show you where your life will end I'm gonna bring you here again "Dig up this grave", the old lady said The thing we need it lies there dormant, sleeping with the dead You understand what you ask of me Not even death can set your soul free I cast this curse and you will find An evil darkness deep inside your vengeful mind God-damn you to hell, he could not restrain "He already has, son", the witch did explain I'm gonna take you where your body will lie I'm gonna take you there, my friend I'm gonna show you where your life will end I'm gonna bring you here again Pumpkinhead, pumpkinhead I'm gonna take you where your body will lie "I'm gonna take you there", she said I'm gonna show you where your life will end This curse I cast, you're pumpkinhead! Keep away from pumpkinhead unless you're tired of living His enemies are mostly dead, he's mean and unforgiving
Great videos and explanations. Keep up the great work. What is the name of the track at the end of the video that was sourced from Epidemic Sound? I really love that track.
Edd Harley was pumpkin head in one of the movies due to summoning him. I remember a survivor from a previous movie died in the next due to pumpkin head remembering them when summoned again.
Fun fact: The guy at the beginning of the movie who was running from Pumpkinhead was stunt performer Dick Warlock: "Michael Myers" from Halloween II (1981).

I love this character! Pumpkinhead has such an interesting origin story and he scared the crap out of me when I was a kid. Thank you, Niyat! 😁👍🏻
I saw this probley late 89 or 90 I was never scared of pumpkinhead but I always liked his design
Keep away from Pumpkinhead,
Unless you're tired of living,
His enemies are mostly dead,
He's mean and unforgiving,
Laugh at him and you're undone,
But in some dreadful fashion,
Vengeance, he considers fun,
And plans it with a passion,
Time will not erase or blot,
A plot that he has brewing,
It's when you think that he's forgot,
He'll conjure your undoing,
*Bolted doors and windows barred,*
*Guard dogs prowling in the yard,*
*Won't protect you in your bed,*
*Nothing will, from Pumpkinhead*
If Saitama was the Pumpkin Head's target, what would happened

@@filmcomicsexplained couldn’t have said it better.
This takes me right back to my childhood in the 90s.
Stan Winston, one of the greatest. I’m sad that movies like this will never be made again.
I came across Pumkinhead one day in a video store and LOVED IT! I love it even more now that I know it was made on a shoe string budget.
Man I love pumpkin head. Underrated movie monster.
Actually, he does speak. I think he does it twice. I know the first time he says the girl's name putting her in a trance to make her leave the cabin and, i believe,the second time he mocks them saying one of their friend's name and laughs

These films used to scare the crap out of me as a kid, and they're definitely cult classics.
What's a "cult classic" versus just a classic? I hear that a lot, but don't understand the cult part.

thx for the vid
Cool video. It's always nice to see my favorite horror film get some well deserved attention.
I bet the reboot Pumpkinhead would be a rendered CGI since studios seem to have no love for practical effects these days
I hope not
This was the first horror movie I was allowed to watch as a kid and to this day (34yrs old) I still randomly think of Pumpkinhead when I'm in the dark.

The perfect soldier. Complete the mission at all costs.
Pumpkin head is one of my favorite childhood movies. Could you do “the gate” it came out in 1987
Sure!
Oh I discovered this movie because of terrordrome, liked it very much! Hoping you could cover Maniac Cop sometime 😁
I have never seen the whole movie just clips here and there, maybe one day that will change but I have my doubts. Still I will admit I like the story and lore behind it and Lance is damn good actor.
As for a recommendation I would once again recommend the Swedish horror movie Besökarna aka The Visitors from 1988.
OMG, was discussing this great movie with my other horror enthusiasts the other day!!! Thank you very much for covering a great film!!!

Of a good man named Ed

Returned, found him dead
Recalls a tale as a boy he was told
Of an evil witch, so wicked, so old
Seeks a farmer's advice he will not give

He took Ed there but refused to go in

She had the power to avenge the dead
It cost your soul, now come with me Ed

You should do “mr.nobody” one of these days. Instantly hoped you had a video on it after I finished it.
Okay!
Edd Harley was pumpkin head in one of the movies due to summoning him. I remember a survivor from a previous movie died in the next due to pumpkin head remembering them when summoned again.
Awesome video. Can you do the werewolf from Bad Moon?
I seen this when it came out and it is Scary.
Pumpkinhead is the all time greatest movie monster.
Strong character design goes a long way.
Not a bad directorial effort by Stan Winston. I first rented this on VHS back in the day. Loved it then, love it now.
I was like 10 when I first saw this and I am still traumatized by this monster.
As a kid pumpkinhead and candyman was the only two movies I actually had nightmares about
Winston should be a household name for his insane work. Thanks for making the monsters real Stan. You were a legend
One of the best!
I Watched this movie two days ago and it was pretty good
Fun fact: The guy at the beginning of the movie who was running from Pumpkinhead was stunt performer Dick Warlock: "Michael Myers" from Halloween II (1981).
Thanks for the critique! I very much appreciate Lance Henrikson
I always wondered what pumpkin heads motive was
Pumpkin head is one of thd most terrifying creature I've ever seen in a movie,i am scared of Xenomorph because of this terrifying pumpkin head
Pumpkinhead was a Halloween tradition in our house since it's release on vhs in 89.
This creature is responsible for all of my fears and nightmares back when I was a youngster!
Raw head Rex and the monster from The Keep. I don't know if you have done these but I am very interested.
Pumpkinhead is my favorite movie demons
