Zbigniew_Krycsiwiki As in *hack* up a hairball. As in, this movie is about as thrilling as a cat hacking up a hairball. And I don't like cats. "Cats are for jerks and lesbians." - Homer J. Simpson.Drunken idiot teenagers disturb a grave in a local cemetery and resurrect a demon, dead for several hundreds of years, who then seeks vengeance on the distant relation of those responsible for his burial, and revenge against the teenagers who disturbed his grave. He should be happy they disturbed his grave, as it brought him back to life to avenge his own death. There's nothing wrong with this film, technically speaking, it is well-made, and sporting a very creepy atmosphere, with a kind of creepy looking villain and decent enough gore, but this B-movie is sunk by largely abysmal acting and painful dialogue. The little boy plays a major role in this film, despite the fact that he looks bored, like he's not sure what is going on or why he is even there. Top-billed Linnea Quigley is only there for her name value, she has about fifteen minutes of screen time, playing a minor character. Marginal so-bad-it's-good movie, but it could have (and should have) been a LOT better.

movieman_kev Three delinquents disturb the tomb of an ancient warlock who after summoning Jack-O (a less then menacing pumpkin-headed figure) to dispatch said hoodlums, continues on his sworn vengeance to kill every decedents of the family that offed him. That includes young Sean Kelly and his horror-loving family. Of course it's up to Sean to find a way to save the day.Such a stupid low-budget B-movie. The acting's atrocious and the plot isn't much better. Throw in a extremely lame killer, a possible pedophile who laughs way too much & a couple of stereotypical cardboard cutout 'conservative' couple and you have this film in a nutshell. Not really worth your time save to see how superbly well Linnea is aging. Eye Candy: Linnea Quigley is always good for some T&A and she doesn't disappoint here with a lengthy shower scene; Rachel Carter also gets topless (although it could be a body double)My Grade: D-

lastliberal OK, I could only find three reasons to consider this film worthwhile considering the extremely low budget.First there was Linnea Quigley and Rachel Carter. Actually, the two of them gave me four good reasons to watch, and watch I did.The only other reason to watch is that a lot of was filmed right down the road. Now, I didn't know this beforehand, but I saw an Orange County car tag and said, wow! this was shot in Florida.I was impressed by the flashback to the past and the ancestors of the young kid, but that was really it. The killings by the pumpkin man were pretty lame, with the exception of the biker.If you want to see Quigley and Carter, OK, but Return of the Living Dead will give greater thrills.

Woodyanders Man, I can't believe the largely harsh and negative comments for this movie. Okay, it sure ain't no sophisticated work of cinematic art. But it is a good deal of entertainingly tacky fun. For starters, the titular pumpkin-headed supernatural killer dude has to be one of the single most laughably silly and unscary things to ever stumble in front of a camera; he looks like something you would see in a fourth-rate carnival spookhouse. Secondly, the moderate gore is ridiculously fake and unconvincing, with the definite highlight occurring when this annoying uptight ultra-conservative woman gets electrocuted by a toaster. Then there's the always welcome presence of the ever-lovely Linnea Quigley, who's memorably introduced taking a nice, long, utterly gratuitous shower that goes on for two minutes. Amazingly, we also have appearances by deceased schlock picture legends John Carradine as an evil warlock and Cameron Mitchell as a horror TV show host. Moreover, scream queens Brinke Stevens and Dawn Wildsmith have fleeting cameos. Lead child actor Ryan Latshaw projects all the charm and acting ability of a moldy old tree stump. Pretty brunette Rachel Carter pops her top and bares her cute little breasts. The cruddy special effects are decidedly less than special. The score is suitably overwrought. Yet this film overall has a certain endearingly hokey appeal to it which in turn makes this honey a real delectably cheesy hoot to watch.
