HACK-O-LANTERN
dir. Jag Mundhra, 1988
87 min, USA
"A bloody moon...A scream of fear...A night of Living Hell..."
In the heyday of Satanic Panic, director Jag Mundhra (OPEN HOUSE) found a way to blend elements of giallo, supernatural horror, and slashers to create a waking nightmare fueled by heavy metal, blood, and the dark lord himself.
As a young boy Tommy (all-star character actor Gregory Scott Cummings AKA: Mac's dad in It's Always Sunny...) bore witness to the brutal murder of his father on Halloween night by the hand of his cult-leader grandfather (Hy Pyke - who you can see nude in DOLEMITE if you want) and kept the secret for years.
Now 18 Tommy's seemingly kindly, pumpkin delivering, Foghorn Leghorn sounding grandpa is ready to show him "the power of the blood" and bring him into the fold.
As Halloween draws ever closer people close to Tommy start getting bumped off by a killer in a demonic mask wearing the garb of grandpa's cult. Who is this masked killer? Gramps? Tommy himself? ...or could it be someone much, much worse.
Long available only on bootleg HACK-O-LANTERN has been lovingly restored from it's original 35mm negative by our friends at Massacre Video and presented this Spectober as a sacrifice to our lord Satan.
