Monster Crap Inductee: Leprechaun Returns (2018)

Monster Crap Inductee: Leprechaun Returns
Back To Green Shit In Your World

2018

We are done with the Leprechaun series. This is the last film in the entire franchise thus far. That is a first as we have finished an entire series and looking at the fact there is one more terrible Gamera film in the future, this may not be the end of a franchise look at a terrible series this year. We’ve gone from Warwick Davis being the Leprechaun in many films to Hornswoggle in a suit being the Leprechaun to now a stunt double being the Leprechaun. But we’ll get more into that soon.

So I know the last Leprechaun movie I inducted was Back 2 The Hood and that film sucked. So what was the film after this.

Yeah….The Film That Tried To Reboot The Series With A Wrestling Midget In A Monster Suit That Made The Leprechaun Into A Mutated Demonic Mandrill. It Tried To Take The Film Seriously And Was Boring To Watch. It Won The GINO Award That Year For How Bad It Was. Fuck Leprechaun Origins.

But thankfully, some people were like “hey, let’s make another Leprechaun film that was fun” and they did it. Unfortunately, as had been mentioned in the past, Warwick Davis around this time decided he was no longer going to do the Leprechaun films until his youngest son was old enough to watch them (which in 2021, he is, but wasn’t by 2018). So they had to do a casting call for a replacement and they found Linden Porco, who had been a body double Little Man and Cult Of Chucky.

They also decided that unlike the other Leprechaun movies, which always had a different Leprechaun (despite having the same actor) and different story for it, this film will follow the first Leprechaun movie. However, only ONE of the actors from the first movie would agree to return to this film.

Oh Hell No….Jennifer Aniston Has Basically Disowned This Film Since Being On Friends.

Not The Kid, But Dumb Old Ozzie Returns In This Film.

And with a different cast and a director who did 2016’s The Void while mostly doing special and makeup effects, let’s see what movie we get.

First things first….

Yes, Leprechaun Returns Debuted On Video On Demand, Then On The SyFy Channel, Before It Was Released On DVD. It Has Been A While Since We Have Done One Of These Films That Was Made For SyFy Channel.

We then go to a four leaf clover.

You Might Also Notice The Leprechaun In The Background So If You Remember The First Movie, This Four Leaf Clover Is Going Down His Throat.
 
And since we don’t see clips from the first movie, we have to recreate the Leprechaun getting destroyed and the effects team is already on point.


“But Seth,” you ask, “I thought this was going to go back to being a film about fun.” Well, we can have great gore and funny stuff. You just have to wait…I mean, it’s only just been a minute into the movie.

Anyway, Here Is The Title Card.

We then meet our lead human character in Lila who just woke up while on the bus.


And for some reason, she has a nightmare about a decaying Leprechaun on the bus looking at her, wanting his gold.

Public Transport, Am I Right?

She wakes up from the nightmare and it is daytime.

Huh, Wonder Why I Am Having Nightmares About Little Green Irish Men. *Looks At The Camera*

She gets off at a gas station and I guess was supposed to have a ride, but the ride doesn’t show up. Instead, she has to get a ride from the guy everyone will call creepy. She tries to get a taxi, but besides being a paint worker, Ozzie is also the taxi in these parts.

Yep….The Guy People Think Of As Creepy Is Ozzie.

While riding with Ozzie, Ozzie talks about his experiences painting the place in the past. Lila reveals she just transferred to Larimore College and this will be her first year here. Lila also reveals that her mom used to live here and it is here we find out that Lila’s mom is Tory from the first movie (yeah, the Jennifer Aniston character). Ozzie asks how she is and because Jennifer Aniston did not have nice things to say about the film, we find out her character died off-screen due to cancer. Oh and we also know that the house that she is going to (which is the same house from the first film) is far from anything (even the college campus) so this is basically a house in the middle of nowhere.

And There Is The House That Is Owned By The College Now. Gotta Say, They Did A Good Job Making The House Look The Same From The Original Film. Also....AU Is The Elemental Sign For Gold. 

While getting Lila’s luggage out of the back, Ozzie unknowingly drops his cellphone. Ozzie mentions that everything is okay because they made sure of it, but if it isn’t…to just look in the basement. Ozzie leaves as Lila hears something coming from the well. She is then met by one of the sorority sisters who lives in the house.

This Is Katie

Katie wonders why she is already here when her bus didn’t get here at 4 pm. Lila reveals it is 5:30 pm and that she basically had to get a ride from Ozzie. Katie also reveals that Meredith isn’t even back with the car yet so it was probably for the best Ozzie gave her a ride. Oh and Rose, another sister, has gone into a green phase where everything is done using the Earth instead of gas or electricity.

This Is Rose. She Will Be Very Annoying.

She also doesn’t realize that it is 5:30 pm. She gets Lila immediately to work in helping getting a hose from the well to the house so they can have water and be off the grid. Yes, Rose’s big thing is being off the grid and being self-sustaining. It’s something that isn’t exactly cheap to set up so you guess one of them might be rich. Oh, we have no internet, no cell service, and no electricity until we get the solar panels installed. We also learn that Meredith is a bit of an asshole, but since she is studying native plants, they need her.

We go to Ozzie and he seems to not be able to find his cellphone so he has to go back to the house in the middle of nowhere. Meanwhile back at the house, Rose says that as long as Meredith is booze free, she is great. And here comes Meredith with some booze and some guys.

It’s Gonna Be Between Her And Rose On Who I Freaking Hate More

Oh and one of the guys is an on-again, off-again boyfriend to Katie (off-again right now).

This Is Andy

And the other guy (the one not with the pizza) is Matt.


Rose gets upset that Meredith brought boys and Meredith says they are here for a few extra hands for right now. Katie is upset that Andy is here and tells Lila that she absolutely is not going to sleep with Andy tonight.

Ozzie is back at the house and immediately finds his cellphone. Ozzie hears some noise from the well and goes to investigate. The well bursts and Ozzie gets a whole bunch of water in his face.

That Water Is Green. That Can’t Be Good.

Ozzie drives away, but has to stop in the woods because something is not going right with his stomach.

Aw Crap…..

Ozzie runs a little bit and throws up a four leaf clover.

It isn’t long after that the Leprechaun comes out of his stomach.


You can kind of guess that Ozzie is dead, but he isn’t yet. The Leprechaun jokingly calls him Papa and Ozzie says they killed him 25 years ago. The Leprechaun laughs at it being 25 years later and says he should have taken better care of his body. Ozzie dies and the Leprechaun completely comes out of his body.

Whatcha Gonna Do….When Leprechaun-A-Mania Comes Ripping Out Of You!!!!!

He then rhymes about his own death and rebirth.

Oh And He Gets The Gold Coin That Had Still Been Ozzie’s Stomach 25 Years Later.

The Leprechaun says that he has a lot of killing to make up for. The Leprechaun looks at his reflection in Ozzie’s eyes and wonders when he got better looking. He also finally gets his hat out of Ozzie’s stomach.

The Leprechaun leaves as we fade to night back at the house.

He Even Does The Irish Side Jump As He Leaves. As A Part-Irishman Myself, I Have Always Tried That, But Never Succeeded.

Anyway, at the house, they are only going by lanterns and Rose says they will be going solar by the end of summer. So yes, this is summer break and they will be working several months on this BS. Someone like myself would never be able to live in this. Meredith is tired of talking about work and she instead wants to learn more about Lila. Lila reveals that she didn’t really have any friends and spent most of the time taking care of her mom. Apparently, Tory (since the first film) had some mental health issues and thought that monsters were always trying to get her. Then she got cancer and everyone stops wanting to hear about it. Well, except for Meredith who tells Matt that Lila’s mom was crazy and that might be hereditary. Lila is upset and she decides to head to bed.

Oh and you remember when Katie said she wouldn’t be sleeping with Andy tonight?

She’s Sleeping With Him Tonight.

Oh And We Got A Peeping Leprechaun.

As Lila goes to lay down, she sees the ghostly apparition of a gory Ozzie.

Lila screams and she wakes up in the morning with blood on her cheek. She wonders where that blood came from as she sees Meredith and Rose sleeping in the same bed.

No Sexual Chemistry Here

Lila looks around the place and she sees that the basement is flooded.

She tries to fix the pipes, but we also see the Leprechaun is down there.

Complete With A Rip Off Jaws Theme

But he doesn’t get to act like the shark as Rose comes down as well. Lila tells her she took care of the pipes and that she just needs the water pump and the well, she will have this taken care of in a few hours. Rose is impressed that she can do that and Lila says she got so good at taking care of her mother that she got really good at problem solving. Rose says it probably would be wise to not mention her mother so much. We also find out that Meredith likes to juice fruits and vegetables and put them in jars. Lila jokes that she must be health conscious and Rose says that she mixes them all with alcohol. After they leave, the Leprechaun comes out of the water to say something.

Leprechaun: I Love The Smell Of Me Gold In The Morning.

Katie and Andy are on the roof setting up the solar panels and immediately start arguing over how to drill the boards that keep the solar panels into place. Meanwhile, we see Matt flying a drone around the property. Rose is upset that Meredith is still in her pajamas with all the work they have to get done. The Leprechaun tries to kill Lila with the rake, but without gold for 25 years, his powers aren’t exactly working right now. We find out that Matt is really here to do a documentary on the setup of this house into a place that can be purely green in power and water. Lila gets upset when she sees Ozzie’s ghost and she yells why the ghost is here, but since no one else can see the ghost, it is awkward.

They finally are able to have electricity in the place, but Katie starts hearing strange laughter in the woods, but ultimately ignores it to move on to another task. Meanwhile, the mailman arrives to deliver the mail. When putting the mail in, he gets bit by something.


He thinks he hears a kitten, but it is actually the Leprechaun.

Attack….Of The Killer Mail Boxes…

The Leprechaun grabs the mail man’s head and gets it stuck in the mail box.


The Leprechaun then goes into the mail man’s mail truck and backs into his ass.


The Leprechaun gets out of the vehicle and makes one last insult to the now-dead mail man.

Yep….Your Head Is Very Fragile These Days

The Leprechaun even has a joke about it, which he can’t finish because he has a piece of brain matter on his shoes.

If You Forgot From The First Film, The Leprechaun Had A Huge Issue With His Shoes Not Being Clean….So He Cleans Them Here.

That night, the Leprechaun sneaks into the bathroom while Lila is taking a shower. You think the Leprechaun is going to pull the shower curtains on a naked Lila, but no….he has a more assholish idea.

Flushing The Goddamn Toilet Which Makes The Shower In Many Old Houses With Old Pipes…..Scalding Hot. Although In This Case, She Loses All The Hot Water Which Makes Me Wonder If This Movie Really Remembers What Happens When You Flush The Toilet.

Later, Matt shows people some of the shots he made with his drone as Katie is happy that they all have internet again. Suddenly, Irish music starts playing which confuses Meredith as this was not on her place. Rose goes to put a fence over the garden because they might have seen a rabbit and rabbits are bad news for a garden.

Yep…Bugs Bunny Is Enemy #1 To Rose

In her bedroom, Lila finds a portable speaker, but is weirded out by her stuffed panda bear being under the covers.

Maybe Po Just Wanted A Nap

Maybe Not….

Yep….The Leprechaun has decided to wear the stuffed panda’s head.


The Leprechaun tells her that her bear isn’t the only animal on the endangered list and Lila is trying to convince herself this is not real. The Leprechaun asks if he looks like a figment of imagination, but gets hit by the portable speaker as Lila tries to make a run for it. But the Leprechaun grabs her leg and….licks it?

Ew…..Is This Leprechaun Matt Gaetz????

The Leprechaun and Lila both realize that each are familiar with Lila being Tory’s daughter and the Leprechaun being real, meaning her mother was not crazy. The Leprechaun reveals the piece of gold he got from Ozzie’s bowels and tells Tory that he wants the rest of it, figuring that she knows where it is. Of course, Lila does not know where the pot of gold is, but the Leprechaun does not believe her. He thinks her necklace is gold, but it is fool’s gold so it burns the Leprechaun’s hand.

Lila is about to kill the Leprechaun, but the Leprechaun turns the lights out. The lights being out is blamed on Andy of course because he was filling an air mattress and Katie goes out to fix the power. As everyone leaves to do other stuff, Matt decides to film himself acting like Alfred Hitchcock. He hears noise and knowing it is Lila, stops recording to go and help her. Lila tries to find the Leprechaun with a light and we see that the Leprechaun is even more of a pervert who saw her boobs and wants to film her best angles. She calls him disgusting and he asks if he is disgusting in a sexy way.

Yep….This Leprechaun Is So…..Matt Gaetz

Lila finds him and knocks his head off.

But of course the Leprechaun is able to put his head back on so he is fine, also adding that she gives great head. The Leprechaun smiles upon hearing Matt’s (not Matt Gaetz) voice and knocks him over. Lila checks on him and yes, explains that what ran past him was a leprechaun. She of course thinks everyone will think she is crazy and runs off to find the others before the Leprechaun gets them.

Meanwhile, Katie has finally been able to get to the fuse box and Andy is also there so….you know exactly what that means.

More Banging Like They Are Rabbits….Which Rose Obviously Hates.

With Meredith Watching This Time, Not Amused.

Of course, Meredith gets met by the Leprechaun.

Leprechaun: There once was a lass in college who studied the spirits for knowledge. She laid hard with the devil to rise of a great level, but no one begrudged her the mileage.

Meredith spits out her drink when she sees the Leprechaun and the Leprechaun calls it a golden shower. Yeah, that is not a…..you know what, to avoid telling you what it is, I’m going to lie and say spitting bear at someone is a golden shower. Please do not look up what a golden shower actually is because I think you will regret it.

Meredith immediately thinks the first thing to do in this situation is to take a selfie with the Leprechaun.

I Know A Guy In Alabama Who Would Pay Good Money For That Photo

The Leprechaun tells Meredith that he is looking for something and if she tells him where it is, he won’t rip her to shreds. Meanwhile, Rose is upset that the electricity hasn’t been fixed yet so she goes to find Katie. Lila and Matt come out with Matt saying he filmed an animal in the house and Lila explaining it is a leprechaun, which of course Rose doesn’t believe. Meredith comes out saying that there is a deranged dwarf obsessed with money in the house. Meredith just thinks that it is a deranged crackhead.

Oh Yeah, They Definitely Have Seen The Whole Alabama Leprechaun Video

Meanwhile, Andy goes to take a leak after sex. Andy thinks Katie is coming to talk to him, but it is the Leprechaun instead. After his whiz is done, Andy also decides to take a selfie with the Leprechaun.

The Leprechaun then picks up Andy

Not Exactly The Most Convincing Pickup

Rose, Lila, Matt, and Meredith look around the house to find the creature. But Rose screams when she feels a piece of carpet that isn’t flat and thinks it is the Leprechaun, causing everyone else to run, leaving her all alone. Katie finally goes to fix the fuse, but hears Andy scream and the rest (except for Rose) come out. Andy gets thrown nearby and they all confirm that it is a Leprechaun. Andy asks if that throw is all the Leprechaun has, to which the Leprechaun has this response.

Leprechaun: I’ll Admit….Without Me Gold, I’m Not In Top Form. But I, Unlike You, Still Know How To Perform.

Still Useful Even Today

Andy throws a trash can at the Leprechaun, but the Leprechaun jumps on it and runs on it for humor.

The Leprechaun is tired of having fun and causes a solar panel to fall onto Andy, splitting him into two.

Okay….Note To The Team Doing The Effects During This Film: A+ Job There, Guys.

Everyone tries to run for the car, but Meredith says that she left the keys in her room. Katie is still not convinced that Andy is dead, but after thinking about it for a few minutes with the others looking at her, she comes around to realizing that dude is dead. Matt wants to run, but considering this is in the middle of nowhere, they wouldn’t be able to get far. Also, Rose is still in the house.

We go to Rose, who is hiding in the closet. Rose is met by a hat which the Leprechaun pops out of.

Booyaka Booyaka 619

Rose scream, which the Leprechaun takes his face off to scream right back.

I Think That First Pick Could Also Go Well As A Facepalm As Well.

Rose’s response is to hit the Leprechaun in the head with a high heeled shoe.

The Leprechaun is also called a troll, which he finds offensive. Rose throws a bunch of shoes at him and runs away while the Leprechaun has to satisfy is OCD manner of cleaning all of the shoes.

Matt suggests that the Leprechaun might have eaten Rose and no one buys it since the Leprechaun seems a bit to refined to resort to cannibalism.

Hey, Hannibal Lecter Was Refined And He Was A Cannibal.

Meredith says they have to go back for her and everyone is shocked Meredith is saying this since she normally is not about doing the right thing. While the Leprechaun is looking for them, Lila and Meredith get the keys for the car and the team of Katie and Matt find Rose. Rose isn’t the biggest fan of leaving everything that has been worked on here, while trying to say they worked on when really she only cares about herself, but thankfully Katie talks her out of her stubbornness by saying you can’t save the world if you are dead.

Meredith says they should hide in the basement and when Lila goes in, Meredith shows her true colors and locks Lila in there, saying she made a deal with the Leprechaun. Meredith finds Katie, Matt, and Rose and convinces them all to leave with her while saying that Lila is dead. They are about to start leaving, but the Leprechaun is in the back seat.

Katie gets out and Matt kicks the Leprechaun out of the car and into a pile of rabbit shit. Katie gets back into the car and they drive off as the Leprechaun scoffs at that type of car being the car of the future.

Back with Lila, she goes down in the basement and there she meets the ghost of Ozzie once again, but Ozzie is not their to hurt her and in face shows Lila the treasure map to where they found the Leprechaun’s pot of gold. Lila now has to figure out how to get out of the basement and Ozzie goes through a wall, but that is not how Lila is going to get out so she has to use a hammer on a basement window.

Meanwhile, Meredith, Rose, Katie, and Matt are driving away from the house, but Meredith is drunk so it isn’t easy for them to get away. They think they have gotten away and it is at this point Meredith reveals she left Lila to die because of the deal with the Leprechaun. But they don’t get too far into this as the Leprechaun is riding a Matt’s drone.

They side swipe the Leprechaun on a drone and the Leprechaun gets his face impaled onto a branch.

They now think they have gotten away, but Meredith has to swerve to avoid Ozzie’s truck and they crash into a tree.

After getting out of the car and looking for keys to the truck, they find Ozzie’s body. Katie looks for the keys and almost gets them, but the Leprechaun steps on her hand.

You might have noticed the Leprechaun is missing an eye. Well, he fixes that real quick by grabbing one of Ozzie’s eyes and using it as his own now.

Meredith says she did what the Leprechaun wanted and reminds the Leprechaun that he wouldn’t lay a hand on her if she did it. The Leprechaun agrees and lets her go. Showing her full selfishness, Meredith leaves the others. Of course, Meredith may have wanted to read the fine print because while a Leprechaun is true to his word that he won’t lay a hand on her, he has magic so he doesn’t need to lay a hand on her to kill her. While she is running through the garden, the sprinklers magically turn on. The sprinklers then start flying into her and the Leprechaun reveals his trick.

Leprechaun: I Just Said I Wouldn’t Lay A Hand On You. I Never Said I Wasn’t Going To Kill You.

The Leprechaun kills Meredith via flying sprinker to the mouth,

Nice Touch Having The Sprinkler Still He On So It Sprinkles Out Blood Instead Of Water

With that out of the way, it is time to go after the other three. Matt finds his drone and decides he is going to use it on the Leprechaun, hoping to slow him down while the girls get away. He says if Werner Herzog can do it, then so can he. Rose of course calls him Werner Herzcock and goes away, with neither of them knowing who he is. Lila finally gets out of the house and decides to try to use the map to find the pot of gold this Leprechaun is looking for. Lila finds Katie and Rose and they join her in finding what the Leprechaun has been looking for.

The Leprechaun sees the drone and quickly takes control of it. The Leprechaun does a bunch of movie jokes with murder spliced in them as he sends the drone to decapitate Matt. Matt of course doesn’t do the easy thing and just freaking move so he ends up dead.

Lila, Katie, and Rose finally find the pot of gold and see that their isn’t as much gold as their used to be.

It is here where Rose reveals why either she or Meredith are the most detestable in this film. She reveals that she found the gold months ago and pawned most of it off in Bismarck so she could get the necessary parts to create a self-sustaining house, while still being kind of “what I, I mean, we did” with the house. Of course, Rose should have let the others know about it and fucked the sorority code by not telling them. She reveals that she lied about the successful GoFundMe project (which this is the first I am hearing about it) and says the only people who gave money were her stepdad and some guy who wanted to see her nude (which she gave him pics of her nude). Katie is pissed because they have nothing to offer the Leprechaun to keep them alive. Lila calms Katie down and tells the two that they will just have to kill the little green guy. They figure out that with Fool’s Gold (remember Lila’s necklace burning the Leprechaun from earlier) being Iron can maybe destroy the Leprechaun.

The Leprechaun comes across them arguing about giving the gold back to him. The other two leave and Lila goes to give the Leprechaun the gold. Lila is now in the house waiting for the Leprechaun to show up and when he does, she says she is giving this to him so they can survive. The Leprechaun grabs the pot, smells his gold, and then starts counting the coins. Lila tries to leave, but the Leprechaun refuses to let her leave until he has counted his gold. As he counts, he finds a tampon in the gold.

Thankfully It Wasn’t Used.

The Leprechaun dumps the gold and it reveals that most of it was tampons with only the top being actual gold. The Leprechaun is definitely not happy about this, but before he can do anything, Katie and Rose appear, signaling that whole argument he saw was merely just a ruse. They start beating him up with loaded pillow cases and then trap him in a circle filled with iron while Lila puts the necklace on him. He begs for them to let him out. Meanwhile, we have a comedy spot where Katie falls onto half of the remains of Andy.

Katie then fixes the fuses and electricity has returned to this house. Rose finds clover juice from some of Meredith’s jars and puts them all into a tub.


The Leprechaun tries to bribe Lila with a wish if she lets him go and even tries to do the voice of Tory (which isn’t Jennifer Aniston, but a Jennifer Aniston voice impersonator) to get her to want to make the wish of her mother being alive again. Lila seems like she is going to fall for it, but grabs the necklace and says she just wishes the Leprechaun would just die already. She puts a hose in the Leprechaun’s mouth with the other end of the hose being in the tub of clover juice.


They start the process and Lila makes the joke about a Shamrock Shake coming up.

Oh I Wish It Was An Actual Shamrock Shake. Those Things Are Good.

The Leprechaun explodes because of this.

The three girls celebrate the demise of the evil Leprechaun. So to make sure he never comes back, they plan to burn all the pieces into a pyre. Unfortunately, they do not get everything quick enough and we get a bunch of mini Leprechauns now.

Rose tries to kill one of them, not realizing there are others. They do throw a hammer at her, which wounds Rose.

One of the mini-Leprechauns also makes sure to make a joke.

Mini-Leprechaun: Stop….Hammer Time

Rose goes to hit the minis with a hammer, but one of them gets to her face and bites her nose. She bites that one till it is dead and proclaims that she stopped poachers from killing marine life so a bunch of miniature pixies isn’t going to stop her, but they trip her into her much coveted golden spade trophy.


Lila and Katie go inside to find the mini-Leprechauns and a dead Rose. The mini-Leprechauns then start to combine to reform the Leprechaun as one entity.


They then remember that gold is a conductor so after falling, Katie rips off wiring off of a lantern and puts it on the gold that the Leprechaun is standing on.

The Leprechaun has a great moment of realizing he is screwed.

Leprechaun: Oh Shite…

This electrocution causes things to catch fire, including the Leprechaun.

They try to escape through a window, but it is made out of fiber glass so that is no good with the Leprechaun making a joke while burning about Global Warming. The two ladies go through the basement and go out the broken basement window, but the Leprechaun grabs Lila’s leg. Lila has a pretty good one liner.

Lila: I’ve Got A Limerick For You. Eat A Dick, Ass Baggins!!!

She then kicks the Leprechaun away before escaping while the house burns down with the Leprechaun inside. Unfortunately, the explosion does impale Katie with a piece of something.

Thankfully, these girls aren’t completely stupid because they do not do what feels natural to do in taking the impaling piece out since you just bleed to death immediately if you do so. A fountain of green goo sprays all over them.

Don’t Swallow Any Of It Or You’ll End Up Like Ozzie Earlier

Speaking of which, Ozzie’s ghost appears, waves bye, and then leaves.

The Larrimore University representative comes by and drives them away after a little bit of an explanation that probably the best green footprint is no footprint at all.


But because the Leprechaun’s hat wasn’t burned…..the Leprechaun comes back to life. So the last scene we have of this film is the Leprechaun hitching a ride on a chicken truck heading to Bismarck.


And with the film now over and not much known about how well this film did, we can look and see what happened to the director and cast. Steven Kostanski is still directing while doing special effects and just this year did the pretty good film I saw known as Psycho Goreman. The small cast this film had…..hasn’t really done much of note since this film, but it has been 3 years so I can give them time.

I guess I should mention that there could be another sequel in the future as director of Saw 2 and the upcoming Spiral: The Book Of Saw Darren Lynn Bousman has an idea about a future Leprechaun film where the Leprechaun would be in a gold mine and would hopefully include Warwick Davis back as the Leprechaun since the time he said he wouldn’t do horror films has passed. Would I want to see it? You bet your ass I would love to see it.

So now let’s talk about my thoughts on the film and quite frankly, this has overtaken Leprechaun In The Hood as my third favorite in this series (only being surpassed by Leprechaun 3 and the first Leprechaun film). The gore is top notch, the effects for the most part are great, the acting is good (Linden Porco, while not Warwick Davis good, does a fine job as the Leprechaun and you can tell he is having fun with the role), and with a film about a killer Leprechaun, that really is all you can ask for. Remember that this is a horror comedy so of course some of the deaths are going to be silly if you think about it too long. The only issues I have are the characters of Rose and Meredith although that may have been intentional. I know the absence of Warwick Davis as the Leprechaun might bother some of you, but I would say give this film a chance.

So now that we have that out of the way, what’s next.

Hey, You Remember That Terrible Gamera Film You Mention As All You Have Left To Be Done With That Series?

*sigh* Yes, I do.

Well, guess what is next?

You Know, I Really Only Have Myself To Blame For This Being Next Since I Mentioned It Earlier. Oh Well…..
