Horror icon Doug Bradley (Hellraiser movies) and Lance Henriksen (Alien vs. Predator, Scream 3) star in this riveting continuation of the Pumpkinhead series. When the residents of a small town discover that their local mortician has been dumping the corpses of their loved ones into a swamp, rather than properly cremating them, they seek the assistance of a witch named Haggis to deal out justice. Haggis summons the demon Pumpkinhead to kill those responsible for the desecration. The only thing that can stop Pumpkinhead is an eccentric, small-town physician with an illegal donor business who is set on killing the townspeople who have unleashed the demon.

Editor's Note
Genre fans will love seeing two horror greats in this entry in the Pumpkinhead series: Lance Henriksen (the Alien films) and Doug Bradley (aka HELLRAISER's Pinhead). A small town discovers that its mortician hasn't been properly disposing of the bodies of their friends and family. Instead, he has been using the local swamp as a mass grave, and the townspeople want vengeance. With the help of the witch Haggis, they call the demon Pumpkinhead to their aid, but things don't turn out quite the way they wanted.

Pumpkinhead: Ashes to Ashes is a made for TV Sci-Fi original directed by Jake West. Screamfest was tossing around free tickets to this badboy so I went; I probably would have dodged it otherwise...The flick is ok, maybe even good by Sci Fi standards, but I wasn't overly impressed. I didn't feel cheated by it, or like I wasted time. Glad I didn't pay for it though. The practical effects are good, but the CGI is horrible. Jake West commented on that, knew it was bad, but said hey, it's what they had the money for...The acting is passable in most cases although overall it's pretty Sci Fi standard. Lance Henrickson has little to do, but does it well. The story line seemed smart, although it really ends up falling a bit flat. Watch it on TV maybe, if you're bored, but don't chase it down unless you're a diehard fan of Pumpkinhead, Lance Henrickson, or swamps - Robert Fure
