Special effects are not the type of fancy practical applications that make you gasp at their realism. Instead, the filmmakers opt for tonnes of bright red blood spray. They then generally spray it out of whatever orifice is being ripped off. There are plenty of torn-out spinal cords and, eye-gouging. There is even one lovely moment where a heart being eaten doesn’t agree with our demon’s tummy and he proceeds to shower the room in a delightful brown clotted mist.
Nevertheless, Peckerhead’s likability is what saves this from being obnoxious. There is a certain empathy to relate to Uncle Peckerhead. Even his explanation for his chosen moniker is lined with a certain sadness. After all, his daddy called him Peckerhead for his whole life.
Despite Judy’s desire to leave Peck behind, her bandmates buy his story. He states that he has his affliction under control. Also, he would never eat Judy, Max, or Mel. What’s more, he proves himself to be handy when it comes to selling DUH merch and riling up the crowd.
I almost expected him to fall off the stage given his previous clumsiness but alas he just musically ripped it up.

Jeff Riddle Is A Real Muso
Max, played by Jeff Riddle, stars as the band’s guitarist and singer and wrote the music that features in this ironically silly horror movie. Subsequently, he has an album, DESTROY, which you can listen to for free online. I went looking for it because I really enjoyed his singing voice in Uncle Peckerhead.
