@jonny classic #Monsterdon of course
C'mon Final Girl, work it out...
Man, shoulder pads were WAY out of control in the 80s. #monsterdon
they named the Appalachian bumpkin kid "bunt" #monsterdon
it's not dead and it's got your gun #PumpkinHead1988 #monsterdon
#Monsterdon it was too easy.
"THE INGRATITUDE!!!" scowls Pumpkinhead
Got to give the FX credit. This isn't one of those shy monsters you never see.
When we build our cottage swamp community we don't need to summon any demons or enact any dark rituals. We'll just bake, watch old movies, and make art. Art we can sell to buy vast quantities of dry ice for the evening mist.
@CardboardRobot We watched a werewolf one with David Janssen last night from the early 70's and everyone was doing southern accents of varying degree of hilarity. You could almost see them thinking about it. Moon of the Wolf. #monsterdon
"no refunds, no returns, this is Magic fucko!"
this movie is very different from what I anticipated, and I still don't quite get what genre it is #Monsterdon
"If that scum hurt my brother, I'll ride my dirtbike in his general vicinity!"
Does look kinda cute though... #monsterdon
Love this "DIY Graveyard" ethos they have here...
#monsterdon I broke a bunch of rules, a norm or two, and I smashed through a rural taboo, Billyβ¦
I bet the bad guy is the last to die
#monsterdon
#Monsterdon fuck yeah this creature effect is what we're here for (after lance of course <3)
Her friends need to tell her that it's time for short hair.
I like this film because it doesn't quite pretend to take itself seriously
I set my living room lights to ORANGE to match the movie's colour palette #PumpkinHead1988 #monsterdon
the Synthetic Man is spreading his blood-milk to summon the demon
#monsterdon Behold, the Millenium Stare
At least nobody's panicking. #monsterdon
As we were watching Diane Keaton in Baby Boom last night I explained to my wife what 'yuppies' were
I think I'm that blond child's age.
As a synthetic man, Lance hasn't aged in 40 years.
Homemade checkov's flamethrower?
Shirtless Lance Henriksen being a great dad #PumpkinHead1988 #monsterdon
Nothing better happen to that dog
#monsterdon
'Patriarchy' , that's what is wrong with daddy
This is the first time seeing this for me. #Monsterdon #Pumpkinhead I have pie, sweet potato... cuz I don't fw pumpkin.
Itβs Pumpkinhead Charlie Brown!
So, apparently, the song the kids were singing about Pumpkinhead in the beginning is the poem that was part of the inspiration for this movie. π§

They brought a knife to a gym fight.
So... the necklace indicated that the new Pumpkinhead was Ed? Damn!
After Pumpkinhead I'm going to watch Total Recall, or as we pedants call it: We'll remember it for you wholesale.
#monsterdon
I could check some of these, but I 'm not quite willing to say that the costs were unexpected or sensible warning was ignored. #monsterdon
π΅ Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
Whoβs prey for Peter Pumpkinhead? πΆ
#Monsterdon #Pumpkinhead1988
Pumpkinhead, like life, is just one damn thing after another.
#monsterdon
Despite all my rage I am still just Lance Henriksen #monsterdon
g'night everybody!
It wasn't Hamlet, but it was a well done creature feature. Thanks as always to @Taweret for hosting. Take a CPR class, buckle your seat belts and have a great week Beautiful Mutants! #Monsterdon #Pumpkinhead
I gotta say Pumpkinhead's face, the movement and stuff, is way above average SFX.
@Lazarou He's over-hydrated
@kshernandez @flowerpot Everyone ends up on a different timeline. I get ad break, but no ads. Just a little circle that goes around and pause for s few(2-10) seconds then the movie starts. Usually ads up to about 3 mins or so by the end. Pun intended. #monsterdon
I SPY WITH MY CREEPY EYE
Pumpkin Head - Xenomorph origin story? #monsterdon #PumpkinHead1988
We named our dog Orchestral Strike
Perhaps your boys shouldn't have been driving around recklessly?
@strangefour Well the cross, makes him cross? --dad #Monsterdon
PUMPKINHEAD understands MOTORBIKES
didn't see that coming, gotta say
good for pumpkinhead for understanding technology
i do like how pumpkinhead taunts everyone #monsterdon
@Taweret Psycho Goreman had some fun rubber monsters at least. #monsterdon
These hillbillies are like New England Puritans
#monsterdon
the dog has sussed out the symbiosis thing
That's a shame; Joel was a nice young man with a bright future ahead of him
#monsterdon Michael Meyers has a little bit of pumpkinhead in him.
#Monsterdon "oh no now pumpkinhead has a gun!"
Joel's earned this
#Monsterdon so -- can you just _shoot_ pumpkinhead and be done with it?
seems to deasy
Gwon! Git!
I'm confused, I thought Lance played the monster? But he's transforming into the monster? But there's also another monster?
#monsterdon
@chris The Witch, Ed, his son (RIP), and the dog I guess
Witch Haggis is so freakin cool. I wanna be just like her when I grow up.
You're gonna pass a pumpkinstone Ed Harley
Whoops, no, Steve returned to the cabin after all. Or at least most of him I think?
I hope God Girl gets it next....
the pumpkinhead is capable of occupying vessels like maggie using the power of satan, but it doesn't really need to since it is also just a normal style claws and muscle killing monster. it is just checking if its satanic transmitter still works after all that time in the pumpkin platform #monsterdon
We should be summoning more vengeance demons on the idle and depraved rich
Who is she? I love the witch #monsterdon #PumpkinHead1988
#Monsterdon traumatized lance
Loving these visceral 80s effects.....
seems like it would be easier to just kill the teens yourself than dig up a demon and make a deal with a witch but what do I know
Everything i've learned about America leads me to believe there are parts of it with bodies lying strewn across the place and the local folk just don't go there rather than deal with all that. And there will be pumpkins everywhere.
theres a lot of dry ice in these woods
#Monsterdon so a *powerful price*, is that less than the *ultimate price*?
So instead of burying him in the Pet Sematary he's taking the kid to creepy orange cabin. Same idea, different execution #PumpkinHead1988 #monsterdon
He loves old peopleβs hands. Is he going to compliment her old hands?
And then Lance arrives at a bog that's somehow even more brown than the village #Pumpkinhead #monsterdon
@Taweret She doesn't appear to be a prostitute ...
#monsterdon
"Use every spooky sound effect available."
The door opens and she has cable tv and a microwave
Git a shovel 'n bury yer boy
#monsterdon
@Lazarou This is clearly California, and these are CA hillbillies (Hollywood Hillbillies) portraying as Appalachia hillbillies
A moderately competent Boy Scout with a first-aid badge coulda helped the kid out more than these folks.
@peter_mcmahan Two WrongDirtbikes make a RightDirtbike
That kid is 100% alive, he totally moved his mouth. Call 911 #monsterdon #PumpkinHead1988
If I was from Appalachia I would be offended by this movie but then how could I have internet?
Oh come on, not taking the kid to the hospital?
Are they gonna try to use dirtbikes to solve the problems dirtbikes caused?
#Monsterdon
#Monsterdon time to curse some teenagers
Glance Henriksen
βChild in dangerβ is a cheap trope. On the other handβ¦ itβs really effective when done well.
So I guess this is going the Pet Sematary route but instead of cat it's a child #PumpkinHead1988 #monsterdon
the child blinked
