“If you were able to relax and enjoy the first half of PUMPKINS, the payoff of the second half is your reward. While it’s clear the film must have had budgetary constraints tighter than an Elizabethian corset, Metheringham and her cast and crew make up for it with lots of energy and shoestring cinematic ingenuity.” – John Black, Gruesome Magazine
