Pumpkinhead A Go-Go

[Miss Olivia]

You know, I thought Pumkinhead was way underrated. The story is cool, the monster is great in the way that the more it grows the more it looks like the man who called it, and it actually freaked me out a little... I thought that it was cool the way the monster grows out of a corpse instead of a living person....does anybody else have an opinion? I especially loved the whole Appalacian witch slant to it....

Considering they're doing a remake on this one as well .... (ugh!). I'll give it a viewing this week and have an opinion soon after. I haven't seen it in ages.

Pumpkinhead was cool...the story resembled Friday the 13th somewhat as to the origin of the creature...but the treatment was good...and the deaths were nice...

Hopefully they do justice to the remake...

They're remaking the original Pumpkinhead? What the hell was wrong with the first one? I mean, Lance Henriksen, blood, a scary monster and a witch.....how can you go wrong with that? Poor Lance....he'll probably play the corpse in the new one...

Rotten bastards.

Oh my god, I just checked out the thread on the Pumpkinhead sequels coming out....Lance Henriksen is in them as the ghost of Ed Harley....damn them.....I knew one way or the other he'd be a corpse....

Nothing. Hollywood always remakes good movies. It's how they make their money. I mean, look at a lot of the remakes: House on Haunted Hill, Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Amityville Horror, Hills Have Eyes, etc. Now, not all of these were bad, but my point is that if a movie was popular or good, it gets remade. Hell, we're getting a Pet Sematary remake sometime soon (why?!?).
