John Leonard New York Magazine/Vulture It can't be said that the crop of made-for-Halloween TV movies have used their extra length to advantage. Jan 16, 2018 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins The story offers nothing new, essentially serving as a remake more than a sequel; a few details have changed, but the premise is virtually the same - and incredibly flimsy. Rated: 3/10 Nov 21, 2020 Full Review Felix Vasquez Jr. Cinema Crazed Avoid, avoid, avoid. Oct 2, 2013 Full Review Scott Weinberg Cinematical Truth be told, the only entertainment value to be found here is strictly of the "accidental" variety. Rated: 2/5 Mar 30, 2007 Full Review Read all reviews

James K The reason,I watch the movie on Tubi last night,was the return of Lance Henkinson.Unlike the original most of the victims were less sympathetic.In that one,it was a fatal and maybe unavoidable hit and run.Here,they are doing some real bad things Spoiler alert.Also ,how did Bud who helped them in the original film and his sister ever get involved with such a unsavory group? Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/04/24 Full Review Audience Member How to tell this movie was made in 2006: It was made for SyFy. It was shot in Bucharest, Romania. It has two titles, Pumpkinhead: Ashes to Ashes and Pumpkinhead: Blood Feud, but is not called Pumpkinhead III. It pretty much follows the original film and just subverts it slightly by having Lance Henriksen's mummified body be the host for Pumpkinhead. For what it's worth, Henriksen claims to have crawled out of the theater during the premiere, referred to this movie as "an alimony movie," "just a nightmare, a nightmare of mediocrity" and "an absolute piece of s**t.*" Beyond Henriksen, Doug Bradley shows up. Those two must have had insane frequent flyer points, as it seems like they were flying to Eastern Europe for almost every role. Bradley plays a mortician who has been selling organs and dumping bodies, leading to the town calling in the Pumpkinhead to kill him. He decides to kill everyone who summoned the demon. You can see a bunch of Lament Configuration boxes in Bradley's office at one point. Director Jake West also made the documentary Video Nasties: Moral Panic, Censorship & Videotape and the movie Razor Blade Smile. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review omg p Uninteresting bland characters, meh story and lord that CGI. Why would they just dump the bodies after harvesting instead you know cremating them? And why Doc wasn't connected to Wallaces? It looked he was living there... Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member The third entry in the series, Pumpkinhead Ashes to Shes rehashes everything from the first two films without ever really offering anything new or memorable.... Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member As a Sci-fi channel film, it's surprisingly well, although it's not entirely good. Pumpkinhead isn't featured enough, and most of the story revolves around the bad guys, which honestly have no qualities to care about. There is a little CGI used, but the film has a good bit of practical effects too. Not to mention some familiar faces. Overall, it uses the Pumpkinhead mytho correctly, but doesn't offer anything new from previous films. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member An excellent sequel to "Pumpkinhead" that in many ways measures up to the original. Good direction, acting, and special effects allow this film to rise above the average slasher flick while maintaining a surreal and genuinely creepy atmosphere. Good scary fun.
