A sympathetic, but lackluster reworking of R.L. Stine's novel. Director Jem Garrard attempts to bring the childish horror material to the big screen, and he does a commendable job. The young cast is quite convincing, and the story isn't afraid to use imaginative influences, but the visuals of Pumpkinhead really lag behind. For instance, there's no real flair, the monsters look incredibly cheap, and the finale is overflowing with poorly conceived computer effects. Moreover, the concept, especially in the middle section, doesn't get enough breathing room, but the mix of youthfulness, Halloween, and strange creatures nevertheless makes for an entertaining trifle. As a fan, however, I was hoping for more.

Unhappy youngster makes an appearance, and then we have odd happenings start, along with odd behavior.
This is such a funtastic story, with a family-friendly Goosebumps vibe going on. The Creeper is so far beyond terrifying that he's absolutely and beautifully hideous.
Excellent Halloween Film.
