Summary: Could have been much better
Review: Jack-O is the kind of horror flick thats fun to rent an laugh at. It had a good concept and i agree that i Dimmension Films got a hold of it. It just might have been scary-somewhat. Still, I rented it and I enjoyed for the simple fact that it was so chessy. i like the idea of the pumpkinman.

Summary: Um...Uh...Well there is some good killings!
Review: ok, this movie has both incredibly annoying actors, and cheap effects! there is only two cool things about this movie, the kiilings are cool (but not all that original) and pumpkin jack looks cool! if you want this movie, don't pay alot of money for it, its really not worth more than $10!

Summary: ONE OF THE GREATEST HORROR MOVIES EVER
Review: The great thing about this movie is that you can rent it and laugh at it. If you want good acting, special effects, or anything else, look elsewhere.. but if you want a great movie, get Jack-O! The kill-count is a bit low, but they make the most of what is there.

Summary: Not the worst, but could have been better
Review: This is that kind of movie that is pretty bad, special effects wise, acting wise,etc. I think if they would have had a scarier monster, and a bigger budget this movie could have been awesome. I mean the director cast his son in the lead role, and the deaths were very fake looking( a girl gets her throat slit and the blood squirts for over a mile,can we say squirt gun?). The acting wasn't the best, I mean the kid's being buried alive and all he says (very flatly like he's reading) no. If they would have sold this to Dimension Films and have Kevin Williamson get a hold of it, this movie would have been great.

Summary: The WORST movie ever made!! Yup, 5 STARS!
Review: This movie defies any logic when it comes to film making. Script, sucked. Acting, sucked. Visual Effects, sucked. Story, sucked. Editing, sucked. Lighting, sucked. You name it....it sucked. But that's what makes this film so unparalleled, there are no redeemable qualities whatsoever. None. You must watch this film. If not for the pure gut-busting laughter, then for educational purposes on how NOT to make a movie. 5 STARS!!! THIS IS THE ONE!!!

Summary: The best/worst movie ever!
Review: This movie has been a yearly classic in my house since it's release. It's so amazingly bad that one, with the proper mindset, can love it as piece of accidental cinematic gold. I was amased when I saw this on an upcoming DVD release schedule. Needless to say I snapped it up as soon as it was released. Each of the characters are so unlikeable and irritating, one almost thinks it was done on purpose. All of the acting is exceptionally bad, with each actor (???) having something particular that makes them stand out in their own bad way. Poor Vivian, the woman that comes from nowhere to attempt to save the day, has this nagging problem with her mouth that makes her appear as if she's being grossed out on a regular basis. Mom has these EXTRA large eyes that open beyond belief at any opportunity. The ultimate worst is Sean, the little boy who's Pumpkin Man's target. This boy is so deadpan and bored looking that you get the impression that his real father, the films director, forced him to be in this flick. That, or the boy just has zero personality. He delivers lines like "no", while he's being buried by Jack-O, and "Leave my mom and dad alone", with the most bored tone that you expect a yawn to follow. Hysterical in it's blatant badness. The few death scenes appear to incorporate dummies made in a childrens art class. Another example of a really bad scene: After meeting Sean, Vivian is outside his home talking with his parents. Sean goes in the house, falls down and has a vision of Jack-O. Moments later Vivian picks him up and, while looking at mom, states that Sean had a bad dream. OK, 3 in the afternoon, the boy goes in the house for 20 seconds but still has time to fall asleep, in the middle of the floor, and have a bad dream with no one acknowledging it as odd? O....K..?? There's really no need to explain the plot. That's not even of interest to someone that can appreciate this movie. It's purely the cheap badness of it all. I'm still waiting for the sequel!!

Summary: Junk
Review: This movie is (and not kidding) the worst movie ever conceaved in the history of film making. There are only three movies I hate, and this is definately one of them. Your 2 year old kid won't even think this is scary. Tere is no acting in this film, these people really are that boring. They had no plot flow, just a bunch of scenes they shot. They had a big wooden set for the inside of there house, and they didn't even notice that in 80% of the scenes you could see the camera crews' shadows! This isn't even funny bad. This film made me so angry, that I just left the room and could careless how it ends. This film should be burnt. THE WORST MOVIE EVER!!

Summary: Jack-O or The Jack-o-Lantern
Review: This movie was fun to watch, although it dragged in a couple of places. Linnea does a shower scene that makes you want to be Norman Bates (Without the knife!)See it on Halloween!

Summary: Direct-to-video cheap thrills!
Review: When I saw the front box of this movie, I thought, Gee, this looks like that it might be a well budgeted, frightening movie with good effects! Don't let the front box fool you. Instead we have a Z-grade hokey, badly acted comedy-horror film. You may want to see it for B-movie scream queen Linnea Quigley(Her first appearance in the film is in a nude shower scene), and some cameos and special guest appearances by some other stars such as John Carradine and another B-movie scream queen in Quigley's range Brinke Stevens.
