For several years now, two families have been feuding with each other, not stingy in expressing their dislike. And the unbelievable happens. A boy and a girl from the opposing “clans”, Ricky McCoy and Jody Hatfield have fallen in love. They decide to leave the hated city. But the girl's brothers, in an attempt to interfere with the plans of the lovers, accidentally kill Ricky's sister.
Ricky's thirst for vengeance overwhelms him and, despite the warnings of an old witch he turns to, he resurrects the Pumpkinhead Monster. Ricky launches a bloody revenge plan to kill every member of the hostile family. And soon the Hatfield family is caught in the meat grinder of a demonic creature.
Not believing in the legend of the Monster, and perceiving the events taking place as the actions of rivals, both families decide to launch hostilities against each other. But the Pumpkinhead's real attack on the Hatfield family home forces them to abandon their prejudices and differences and unite against the demonic creature until his pact of bloody revenge is realized to the last drop of blood. Love... Revenge... Blood... Death...
