Jack-O1995
“He's Baaack!”
Directed by Steve Latshaw
The premise
A long long time ago a wizard was put to death, but he swore vengeance on the townsfolk that did him in, particularly Arthur Kelly's family. Arthur had done the final graces on him when he came back to life as Mr. Jack the Pumpkin Man. The Kellys proliferated through the years, and when some devil-may-care teens accidentally unleash Jack-O, young Sean Kelly must stop him somehow as his suburban world is accosted and the attrition rate climbs
Horror Vault's take
A generations-old curse comes roaring back to life when careless teens inadvertently set free Jack-O, a monstrous pumpkin-headed entity born from the dying vengeance of an executed warlock. The Kelly family bloodline has always been the creature's true target, and now young Sean Kelly finds himself the last line of defense as neighbors start disappearing one by one. Equal parts Halloween-season atmosphere and low-budget splatter, Jack-O leans hard into its creature-feature roots and never pretends to be anything other than a rowdy, gore-soaked holiday scare. Fans of 90s regional horror will find plenty of schlocky charm to sink their teeth into.
