Pumpkinhead: Blood Feud

Jon Condit of Dread Central rated it 3/5 stars and wrote that it is modestly entertaining.[5] David Johnson of DVD Verdict wrote: "It's an adequate horror flick that maybe thinks it's a little more awesome than it actually is, but the sum total of the copious bloodletting and fun, old-school creature effects equals 'not a waste of time'".[6]

During a bitter family feud, Jodie Hatfield, and her boyfriend Ricky McCoy, decide to leave town to avoid being found out, but are soon caught in the act. Wanting vengeance, he seeks out the monster Pumpkinhead, and resurrects it seek revenge on the family. Despite being warned away by the ghost of Ed Harley, his vengeance plan starts out, and the Hatfield family is soon under siege by the powerful demon. Not accepting the legend of the creature and believing their arch-rivals are the real cause, the two families attempt to go to war, only to be stopped when Pumpkinhead attacks the Hatfield house. Putting aside their differences, they band together to stave off the creature before it's vengeance pact is completed.

Shockingly not the worst thing that could come out of a TV movie Pumpkinhead that's also a fourth entry filmed on the heels of whatever the fuck Ashes to Ashes is. Shotty as hell cgi balanced out by surprisingly abundant and cool practical effects? Damn right. Romanian location trying to disguise itself as backwoods America? Yep. A slew of actors dubbed over with the worst hick accents you've ever heard? Better believe it. A Hatfield's vs McCoy's brawl/Romeo and Juliet story mashed into it? Why not. Enrichingly laughable stuff for sure and with the lowest budget the franchise has seen but still manages to dig its heels into a somewhat Pumpkinhead feel regardless of its faults... and I sort of like it? Haggis is horrifying in this one and the final massacre is a hoot of body parts and cheap blood.

Some amateurish but decent more effects were hamped by an incredibly stupid story of bringing Pumpkinhead into the Hatfields vs McCoys feud. But it was more like Romeo & Juliet just add Pumpkinhead. It was a real snooze fest but I can't completely hate it even though the insect looking Ol' Pumps looked kinda cool. Wouldn't mind more entries in this series, maybe with a more folk horror approach and not so reliant on rednecks??? I'd prefer the next one be bleaker.

You didn't know this but apparently the families in the famous Hafield-McCoy feud come from the same small town as the Pumpkinhead legend. I couldn't believe it myself, but someone must have given the idea to writer/director Michael Hurst to use a Hafield-McCoy type feud for a Pumpkinhead movie because of the southern rural setting and he just went with it despite not being creative enough to at least change the name of the families.

The biggest disappointment of this film is that the monster is not literally a guy with a pumpkin for a head. False advertising all around, that. The fact that it's set in the Hatfield/McCoys feud with a Romeo & Juliet plot is probably the laziest writing there is, and the gore effects are okay but not especially amazing. The backstory that clearly harkens back to older films in the series would probably be more interesting if I had seen them. That all said, nothing in it especially offended me! That's a step up. The heroine isn't particularly interesting or capable, but no one else is, either. Fair play all around.
