I'd guess it has more to do with the fact that a big wooden head would be too heavy for the structure they have, and a foam one would blow over. It might save some costs to have a smaller head, but it can't be that much, plywood is $29 for a big sheet. Skimping out on one sheet over two or three would've only saved a miniscule amount, and I don't think we're at quite those levels of penny-pinching yet.
EDIT: come to think of it, that might actually be why the Creepshow facade is a big box instead of just one sheet. They don't want a heavy-ass piece of plywood leaning on the tent (the weight can damage the tent over time) so they make it a box to make sure it can freestand and withstand the wind over three months.
