“Pumpkinhead” (1988), directed by Stan Winston, 90 minutes. Rated R. Despite a silly title that probably sent it to an early box office grave, it’s a well-executed horror film about a man who calls upon satanic forces to help him avenge his son’s death.

“The Tall Guy” (1990), directed by Mel Smith. 92 minutes. Rated R. A light and very funny romantic comedy that suggests that even a clumsy fellow--with a plastic elephant’s trunk hanging from his face--can find love. With Jeff Goldblum and Emma Thompson.

“Frankenstein Unbound,” 1990, directed by Roger Corman. 86 minutes. In New Los Angeles in the year 2031, a monster is created by a scientist named Buchanan. Based on a novel by Brian Aldiss, this is an interesting tale of science without conscience and a monster that has far more in common with Mary Shelley’s literary creation (an intelligent being who is wrongfully spurned) than the violent savage of the 1931 black-and-white film starring Boris Karloff.

“House of Games” (1987), written and directed by David Mamet. 102 minutes. Rated R. A dark story of greed, death and deception that starts slowly but builds suspense as a psychologist first seeks out the con man’s world and then tries desperately to escape it. This film is full of duplicity and intrigue that is as interesting to watch as it is complex, which is saying a lot.

“Nice Girls Don’t Explode” (1987), directed by Chuck Martinez. 92 minutes. Rated PG. Young April Flowers has the uncontrollable ability to start fires with her mind whenever she becomes sexually aroused. Although it’s a parable about sexual repression and the trials of adolescence, this film doesn’t take itself too seriously and is a comedy tamer than the subject matter might suggest.
