Pumpkinhead: Ashes to Ashes (2006 TV Movie)
3/10
Third installment that runs flat and has either poor or dubbed actors.
7 October 2008
A few years ago when the sci-fi channel still aired in South Africa (it no longer does because of some of the Japanese anime) I watched the first pumpkin head movie and basically thought it wasn't anything major but it was a fun old movie, but I never saw blood wings although I never knew it had a second film I thought ashes to ashes was the second film, until one of my friends told the second movie called blood wings.

Anyway I eventually saw ashes to ashes, but have yet to see blood wings, my first thought of the early part of this film was that it had potential but after a while, the more it carried on the more it fell flat in terms of new ideas, and then as other characters are introduced you notice the actors that play them are not very good, and most of them don't even speak with their natural voices, one of these actors I recognize from the Steven Seagal movie Attack Force, he plays the character Oliver (Emanual Parvu) and does speak English with a french accent, although if you watch Attack Force and this film you'll notice the difference in his voice, because they dubbed it to make him sound like a hillbilly along with other french actors in the film.

I am not gonna go into detail on how poor the creature effects are and trust me films of the same caliber do have better effects, I'll just plainly say they suck compared to the first film who's saving grace was its creature effects.
