A few years ago, Scream Factory gave the 1988 film Pumpkinhead (watch it Here) a special edition Blu-ray release, including a limited edition steelbook. Now they’re gearing up to bring Pumpkinhead to 4K on October 10th, and a standalone 4K and Blu-ray combo pack is available for pre-order from the Scream Factory website. If you want to go a bit fancier, there’s also a collector’s edition with a poster, prism sticker, lobby cards, and enamel pins that can be purchased through the Scream Factory website. Scream Factory is also teaming up with Best Buy for a Best Buy exclusive steelbook of the 4K release, and that can be pre-ordered on the Best Buy website.
Pumpkinhead was the feature directorial debut of legendary special effects artist Stan Winston, who crafted the story with Richard C. Weinman and Mark Patrick Carducci, drawing inspiration from a poem by Ed Justin. Carducci...

A movie that I greatly admired as a kid even though it absolutely terrified me (mostly due to the fact that I was called “pumpkin head” by my mom because of my hair color), Scream Factory’s Blu-ray release of Pumpkinhead arrives this week. It absolutely does Stan Winston’s modest and heartfelt creature feature/folk legend horror movie the justice it deserves with their stellar presentation and then some.
After his son Billy (Matthew Hurley) is accidentally killed by a group of teenage motorcycle riders, a small town shopkeeper named Ed Harley (Henriksen) has one thing on his mind in Pumpkinhead- vengeance. He asks for help with his plan for revenge from a local witch who has the ability to summon a demonic presence known as “Pumpkinhead,” who can track down the guilty souls and punish them for their misdeeds. But after the gigantic and ferocious beast is unleashed,...
