We’re heading towards the finish line of this year’s HALLOWEEN HUMPFEST and our final FRIDAY NIGHT FIENDS edition is devoted to one of the lesser known 80’s slashers that did not blow away the box office but has found it’s cult appreciation over the years. Special Effects wiz, Stan Winston, made his directorial debut with the 1988 hillbilly horror “PUMPKINHEAD” starring Lance Henriksen, John D’Aquino and Kerry Remsen. Like any classic slasher, some horned up young adults roll up into someplace where they don’t belong. After the head douche accidentally kills his son with a dirt bike, Ed Harley seeks revenge through a mountain hag who can summon a demon of vengeance. The same one he saw as a child. He’s just got to go dig him up out of the pumpkin patch. Thus is born “Pumpkinhead” (pronounced “Punkinhead”) and this guy likes to play with his food. Will Ed Harley get his revenge quick and clean or does this monster take much more from him than he intended? I mean…it’s the latter. That much should be obvious. Hear us tell of this somewhat forgotten cult slasher.
