Calabaza asesina

It's 1993 Halloween. Cedar Creek Pioneer Village is a historical re-enactment theme park in Maine. The locals have already survived a nuclear accident. Now they have to battle a rampaging mutant pumpkin.

This is Hulu doing a bit of horror camp. The camp isn't actually funny. It's the kind of movie that has Chris Elliott doing a weird character that doesn't generate any laughs. There are a couple of moments where one can see the attempt at comedy. None of them pan out. Also, it's a weak horror with a CGI pumpkin monster that don't always look good. The escape from the barn is almost thrilling. It's the best section until the kid loses the keys into the vent. The annoying kid is one of my least favorite horror tropes. This one kills any chance for enjoyment.

Dont recommend. Skip this, do michael myers stuff, this is not a silly haha but kind of a off brand horror halloween night and meaningless killing. I wasnt attached to anyone, they gave us 15 mins of etting to know people then them being chased for the rest with everyone being weak, a druggy corn seller guy with a weak brain. A main character cool girl with her little brother. Kind of gross tentacles from the pumpkin in moments.. This would be fine as a backround movie, and maybe that is why it still has a slightly slow pace feeling. Interesting villain not sure how you would get a strong tentacle monster, other than how they attempted.

This is definitely a movie aimed at the 18-22 age range I'd say. Goofy, kinda tries to identify as a stoner movie but doesn't go all the way in that regard. If you got nothing to watch one night and might not want to take a real serious watch. It's good enough for that. This is going to be no ones favorite movie and I highly doubt anyone watches it twice. I give it a passing grade though...

Look, this isn't the best movie out there obviously. However, if you're like me and basically watch anything horror related you can find under the sun. Then you've surely seen MUCH worse films than this. This is a pure B film straight up. Hm, maybe C? No? I would watch as sequel if one was made.

This is a mostly comedy film as the horror is very childlike. Even the scenes that should seem serious are not filed with tension due to the comedy. I wouldn't go as far to say it's kid friendly as in under 10 but its close. The shotgun scene might be a bit much for young kids just because of the subject matter not really the gore or anything.

I do think the 2nd half was much better. This film did have potential though. I like atmosphere in films especially horror films. I can never put my finger on what exactly it is but this movie also had a strange atmosphere to it.

Matty Cardaropole I think carried the comedy aspect of the film. I think it was a mistake to have him play a lesser role in the first half. Even if they did have a somewhat funny reason for it.

Corey fogelmanis (cheekbones). Everytime that guy turned his head I am reminded of Aaron Carter lol.

To finish. Not the best film in the world. Not the worst. I struggled to decide a 5 or 6. I've seen some TERRIBLE films so anything that didn't bore me to death I tend to feel deserves a 5 or better.

I'll preface this by saying floral apocalypse fiction is my favourite science fiction, and comedy horror is a favourite genre of mine.

I adored this movie, there were obvious themes of anthropogenic environmental devastation, which was definitely blooming by the early 90s. We were left wondering who the real villain was after all, a killer pumpkin, or a species whose every holiday revolves around killing plants or animals (Halloween: pumpkins, Christmas: pine trees, Thanksgiving: turkeys). We are a species who cannot subsist without killing, and this movie was a fun and delightfully gruesome commentary on that.

Characters were developed as thoroughly as a 1.5hr movie had time for. A few fresh takes on the interactions between main characters.

Really enjoyable comedy horror 😊

I love all types of horror movies, scary movies, monster movies, thrillers, etc. I even love and appreciate low budget and campy attempts. I appreciate them bc you can tell the work, thought and love they put into it.. None of that for this. It was a mess. Bad writing. Horrible premise and story line.. and a big thing here: if you can't find a decent kid actor to play the big role in the film, than cut the damn role!! I'm really sorry, but I hope he stays in school. I can't believe that no one on crew or set mentioned that they should make a change. And he shouldn't feel too bad bc the rest of the cast was weak. Especially the one who played the older sister and the boyfriend. Just a real #%*! Cake.

I would have given 0-1 but there were some great slasher kills in this flick. Not all kills were great, or even good. But there is a stretch in the act that has some good kill.

Do yourself a favor and find something else. I watched it so you don't have to.
