It is grotesque. This reminds me, I need to sit down and actually watch the film from start to finish.

It's a great movie. Circle back when you've seen it and let us know your thoughts!

Pity the creature effects were the film's strongest component. Unmemorable otherwise

Sorry you missed out. Have you considered https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/26515-pumpkinhead/discuss/58dff3539251415e4800cabb?

This movie was never one I loved as an 80s child...I've dismissed it all the time. Just rewatched it on EPIX and...still feel the same. Its got SO much going for it, an EPIC creature, a decent enough "revenge" story line, and Lance Henrickson as the dad....but its just...there. Different strokes for different folks I suppose.

Still, in keeping with the OP's subject...its a GREAT creature!

There's no "suppose" about that one. Learned as much from my parish priest shortly after first grade began
