pumpkinhead ii represent blood wing start in the isolated ferren wood 1958 where a deformed boy name tommy ( j. p. manoux ) be happily eat his slop that his guardian miss osie ( lilyan chauvin ) have leave for him when a group of six teenager come along and capture him and beat him and eventually murder him . jump forward to the present day and new york city cop sean braddock ( andrew robinson ) be return to his childhood town to become the local sheriff together with his wife beth ( caren kaye ) and teenage daughter jenny ( ami dolenz ) and at first thing seem perfect but while try to make friend jenny becomes involve with danny ( j. trevor edmond ) and his gang . while out drive around and mess about danny hit an old woman know locally a the witch and they go back to check to see if she ok but she not there so they all decide to go to the log cabin where she live to check on her . once there they steal some magic potion and danny hit her which cause a fire to start and a she lay there about to be burnt alive she swear vengeance against them all and call upon the legend of pumpkinhead to dish it out . direct by jeff burr i have little fondness for pumpkinhead ii represent blood wing either a a sequel to the rather good original pumpkinhead ( 1989 ) or a stand alone horror film in it own right . the script by constantine and ivan chachornia along with additional material by an uncredited will huston be rubbish and it start out a it mean to go on a for no reason whatsoever a group of kid murder tommy who despite take ugly pill do not seem like such a bad kid and do he . why murder him . why so openly in front of other people and in the middle of the daytime . i must admit those question keep bother me right throughout the rest of the film and annoyingly they be never answer . the rest of this silly film isn not much well a why would a group of friend suddenly decide it would be fun to dig a dead body up and perform a magical ritual intend to bring it back to life . why . do that sound like fun to you . when be the last time you say to yourself i be bore so i be go to dig a dead body up and try to bring it back to life . people just do not behave like this and yes i accept the it only a film argument but this be mean to be a serious credible horror film set in reality with real people and do not make me laugh because pumpkinhead ii represent blood wing be anything but . the film have an ok pace and there be one or two half decent scene but the character and dialogue be poor and overall it very predictable . director burr ruin what could have be a decent sequel and the special effect be a step down from the original . pumpkinhead himself look bad than the original and he doesn not seem to have any colour or texture almost a if he be unfinished and the guy in the rubber monster suit doesn not help . i though pumpkinhead be poorly shot and do not work . it try to create some atmosphere but it all so silly and whats with the constant flashing light when pumpkinhead appear . there be one hilarious bit when a dead woman come back to life and she sit up in bed and all these light suddenly shine on her and she start speak in a daft voice to the local sheriff who begin to interrogate her . not a good creative decision and one amongst many i might add . the gore be ok and there be some severed limb and someone have their head tear off and two lover be impale on a fence railing ( friday the 13th part 2 ( 1981 ) anyone . ) and someone have their face peck by chicken and there be some gory gunshot wound . technically the film be ok but nothing stand out and it well make apart from some lacklustre unfinished look creature effect . the cast do not distinguish themselves and do you know that roger clinton who play mayor bubba be in actual fact ex u president bill clinton brother . well and now you do . pumpkinhead ii represent blood wing be a poor film and it follow a great film and do nothing but turn in a teenager on the run from a monster type film . watch the far superior original again instead and definitely not recommend . for some bizarre reason this inspire a video game call bloodwings represent pumpkinhead revenge ( 1995 ) while two more film sequel have be make recently pumpkinhead represent ash to ash ( 2006 ) and pumpkinhead represent blood feud ( 2007 ) .
