Dead Air Ep 230 – Pumpkinhead

Keep away from Dead Air Podcast unless you’re not tired of listening. Their hosts are mostly dead they’re mean and unforgiving.

On today’s episode your hosts Wes and Lydia discuss the 1988 classic monster film; Pumpkinhead!

Ed is a humble road stop attendant selling produce and supplies to a rural community and passersby. One day, while at work with his very young son, he encounters some Teenage Dirtbikes, baby! They’re all riled up and ready for a good time until tragedy strikes and leaves Ed’s little boy, dead. Ed is now filled with vengeance. He is prepared to make a deal with the mysterious entity, Pumpkinhead. He only needs a trip to an old witch. His eternal damnation is all it will cost, along with a handful of gold. These young city folk will pay for their negligence with their own blood!

About the author

The Dead Air Podcast was originally supposed to be a small five minute section within a larger show that was to be hosted by our mutual friend and former Rue Morgue Radio host/ producer; Tomb Dragomir. After I made the pilot, I realized that a segment where I talked by myself, sucked. I contacted Lydia and we started to make small segments for Tomb’s show. After about a year of waiting for a very busy Tomb we decided to take matters in to our own hands and launch Dead Air as its own show. Each week we sit down and discuss a horror movie that is either requested by you guys or from our own personal collections.
