well and the dark and eerie atmosphere of stan winston monster or revenge horror blast be long go . director jeff burr ( leatherface represent the texas chainsaw massacre iii ) take a once intimidating alien esquire look demon and toss him under some really bad lighting in outdoor nighttime setting and give him away way too much while make him look so damn rubbery and corny that the gil less man from the creature walk among u would laugh his a off . for day . the bleakness be go . the feeling of unstoppable carnage and revenge that emenates in the first film be make into a hokey crapfest ( almost unworthy of have a drinking game create for it and where every time you see the actor play pumpkinhead fing nike and you take a swig ) . the acting be as plastic a it get to begin with and and the story do no justice for character development either . the writer have previously do work strictly for television and i be guess public access . this come off a a bad tv movie and which would explain why sci fi seem to enjoy play it frequently in the past . a new girl in town clinging to the local badboy ( who be responsible for hospitalize an elderly lady and and burn down her house . oh and and steal a page from her copy of the book of shadow and along with a vial of blood need for a vengeful resurrection ) and put all of her trust in him within a day be highly unlikely while no matter what kind of connection she feel she have with the geek . i be also put off by the attempt at make say local badboy ( j. trevor edmund return of the living dead 3 ) persona distinctly familiar to the jerk character in the first film . it do not work here to the same effect and due to the whole film be such a joke . perhaps the bad addition here be try to display pumpkinhead a a sympathetic character and beneath the surface . this be right away experiment with flash back sequence from a deform and backwoods kid past . and the struggle to pull this off be butcher and due to a horrendous finale and in which pumpkinhead be hint to be do friendly deed while such a return a toy fire truck that fell in a well to it rightful owner . fing ridiculous . oh and to make thing bad and this pumpkinhead be actually the son of another pumpkinhead . yeah and that right . thankfully and not much detail be give to this part of the plot . last thing i need be to see a back story of pumpkinhead get his f on and take his girlfriend to lamaze class and have a baby freak or whatever other s they could throw into that whole mess of a story . though and it could make for a highly viewable sequel and for the bad reason imaginable . the sad thing be and the film do contain some moment that could have be part of a good ( or at least passable ) sequel . actually and if you just take out all the sequence that involve the story and you would be good to go . there be some really elaborate shot ( the pov camera work of a shovel dig up tommy grave be honestly quite refresh to uncover through the lot of this mess ) and kill scene here and to be truthful . they be aim more for a horror romp effect than the death in the first film while but from that point of view and they be pretty entertain . although i be more than disappoint with pumpkinhead appearance here and i be pleased with k. n. b. bloodletting . the movie isn not cream fill with nastiness and but there be some fun moment . see the demon rip one victim head clean off and toss it through the wood be worthy of at least a few hit of the rewind button and i promise . andrew robinson ( hellraiser ) could be note a the film only save grace in the acting department while he could have be sleepwalk and give a good performance than the rest of the cast . but even he not in top form . his great moment would be when he rehearse the famously bad rhyme from the first film and and this be a pretty embarrassing moment and to say the least . ami dolenz be no stranger to the genre . have previously play in child of the night and witchboard ii and tick ( aka infest and a clint howard guilty pleasure ) and she have all the right ingredient to be a b movie scream queen . however and her appearance a jenny strongly conflict with the vaguely talk about character troublesome past . i mean c amon and she look goody two shoe a all hell . there quite a few familiar face to take note of and other than the few i have already mention . for one and punky brewster herself and soleil moon frye . she play marcie and part of the town bad a crew and and she know a great deal about witchcraft while because one of these dim wit really need to be smart enough in the field of witchery to resurrect a dead person while the movie call for it . she be say to have be instruct to gain 20 pound for her role in this film . why this be a necessity or how it have any significance to the film and i will never know . kane hodder play an incestuous redneck that host chicken war with his brother in their backyard for all the local redneck . linea quigley also show up for a cameo sex scene and of course . and we be bless with roger clinton and a the town mayor while whom really have no significance what so ever .
