man and i can not believe the largely harsh and negative comment for this movie . okay and it sure ain not no sophisticated work of cinematic art . but it be a good deal of entertainingly tacky fun . for starter and the titular pumpkin head supernatural killer dude have to be one of the single most laughably silly and unscary thing to ever stumble in front of a camera while he look like something you would see in a fourth rate carnival spookhouse . secondly and the moderate gore be ridiculously fake and unconvincing and with the definite highlight occur when this annoy uptight ultra conservative woman get electrocute by a toaster . then there the always welcome presence of the ever lovely linnea quigley and who memorably introduce take a nice and long and utterly gratuitous shower that go on for two minute . amazingly and we also have appearance by deceased schlock picture legends john carradine a an evil warlock and cameron mitchell a a horror tv show host . moreover and scream queen brinke stevens and dawn wildsmith have fleet cameo . lead child actor ryan latshaw project all the charm and act ability of a moldy old tree stump . pretty brunette rachel carter pop her top and bar her cute little breast . the cruddy special effect be decidedly less than special . the score be suitably overwrought . yet this film overall have a certain endearingly hokey appeal to it which in turn make this honey a real delectably cheesy hoot to watch .
