Oh jeez, not another British horror. You got your mumblers, and you got your obscure slang.
Story goes like this: Old man loves his pumpkin patch. A couple hooligans like to trespass, throw rocks at him, and taunt him with songs (seems like there's a song for everything in this). Anyway, they come back and draw on his pumpkins, the old man keels over, and dumps growing agent into the ground. He re-emerges as some sort of a mutant pumpkin man, who proceeds to kill everyone in sight for the remainder of the movie.
Apparently he's got a lot of land, because he ventures pretty far out to kill trespassers, but then he goes to the pub for more killing, and in the stinger, he's about to kill a trick or treater, out at someone else's house! I think this plot is limited to "Mutant pumpkin man goes on killing spree."
Wow, does this movie have a non-ending. I'm assuming time and/or money factored. It just ENDS. I had to rewind to make sure I didn't miss something. A couple pumpkins roll into the yard? And that means? One kid is cleaning out a pumpkin, and it takes his fingers off. Yep. Killer pumpkins.
I'm not sure what planet they got this quote from, but the box says "Wild, Over the top, and Totally horrifying!" I can safely tell you, three things this movie is NOT, is (1) wild, (2) over the top, OR (3) totally horrifying.
I've boosted my score for pretty much one reason: Pub-maid Pam, played by Dani Thompson. She is one super fox... Who can't act. Her imdb profile photo is re-donk-u-lous. Oh, they do throw in a couple meta remarks. Yeah, I'm easy to please, though Pumpkins offers very, very little to the slasher genre.
