Holy. Crumbs. This movie was directed by a family friend (Dan Peeler). One day we went to visit (I think I was 7 or 8 years old) and Mr. Peeler gave my brother and I the Lumpkin VHS as a gift for visiting him. I had NO idea this movie was ‘real’, I legit thought it was a personal project! Well at any rate my brother and I loved it, and it did teach us many good Halloween safety tips to make certain we feral beasties didn’t get run over by a car in our pursuit for confections!

They had to try really hard to make a short halloween cartoon with such a condescending message. Tara and Lumpkin are going around telling everyone "Hey, Halloween shouldn't be scary, it should be fun!" why can't it be both you little joykillers? The Real Ghostbusters Prime Time Halloween Special ends with the message that children shouldn't be fearful of scary things and to be shielded from them.

Same here. We saw it in school once. I don't recall any stickers. And with this my mind wants to trick itself into believing that maybe there was. If there was, it was probably stickers with a generic pumpkin rather than Lumkins face, so hence it would explain why no stickers survived. And even if there were any merch, it was most likely a local thing rather than a National push like D.A.R.E

It's no surprise the kids were too jaded about a flying pumpkin. You can apparently find moving talking carved pumpkins in a pumpkin patch, and every year the local witches use visibly magicked pumpkins to try to scare kids. Running into a flying pumpkin on Halloween is probably pretty ordinary.

All life long, I've been haunted by good music that was written for the background of movie scenes. They exist nowhere else but there, audio all covered by talking and clacking like it's a rude cafe. Rock: It's Your Decision has a banger for Jeff to almost relapse to. Danger music tracks from some PSAs get orchestral, I'd so listen to it by itself. Stoned (Scott Baio) has a few excellent tracks for the boys to smoke weed to that badly deserved to be released. Everyone should get to experience getting high to every song in that after school special.

Not enough people talk about Swamp Critters. It'd be on weekdays after school, one of those shows that wasn't good but I'd watch just because it was odd and nothing else was on. The Gumbo end theme still lives rent free in my head. I had no idea this guy did cartoons too. Given how cheap the costumed puppet show was, this bad animation checks out. Weird how it turned into a safety ad at the end. We really lost out on Lumpkin merch.

They 100% came up with the name first, because it rhymes with pumpkin, and then didn’t know what to do for a story.

Yooo I remember watching this when I was itty bitty, I THINK my mom rented it? Instead of us owning it, or being lent by a cousin or whatever. Whether it was standalone or part of some complication thing idk. I also remember the reveal of the reflector thing pissed me off even at my little age because of the mere idea that I should be wearing a doofy pumpkin thing over my cool scary costume.

About halfway through the video, I realized that the art style is oddly reminiscent of the non-stop motion Rankin-Bass specials. In fact, this whole thing feels like an amateurish attempt to make a Rankin-Bass-style special.

Being vision impaired myself, we actually hate that shit. Some narration here and there for context is nice, but most with the feature tend to drown out the music and atmosphere and bog it down with needless explanation.
