jacobjohntaylor1 This a very underrated movies. It is not a 4.3. It is a lot better. The original Leprechaun is better. The sixth Leprechaun movie Leprechaun back 2 t.h.a hood is also better. But still this is a great movie. This is one of the scariest movies made in 1994. This movie has a great story line. It also has a great story line. I also has great special effects. See this movie. It is a great movie. If this movie does not scary you then no movie will. Charlie Heath is a great actor. Warwick Davis is very scary in this movie. He is such a great actor. This movie is a must see. Shevonne Durkin is a great actress. This movie is a 9 not 4.3. See it.

one-nine-eighty If you read my review of "Leprechaun" and wondered if Warwick Davies survived the first film then welcome to your answer….. No, he died in the first film…. But Yes, he came back!!Like the first film this one starts with a flash back (to 1094 AD) sequence to set the scene, in this movie the Leprechaun has turned 1000 years old and is looking for a wife. During the flashback he is tricked by a O'Day (a slave) into sparing the young lady who turns out to be the slaves daughter, angry about being tricked he makes a magical pact to one day wed the descendant of his previous potential bride - this will coincide with his 2000th birthday. It's easy to see why this film is referred to as "one wedding and lots of funerals". Despite finding a potential wife (Bridget Callum) he can't go through with the marriage as the young hero of the film (Cody Ingalls)managed to steal a gold coin which will prevent the marriage from taking place. This film is very similar to the first film in that it's pretty awful but still entertaining. It's an odd jump from the first film's objective of retrieving his gold to looking for a bride in the film. Upon reading more about this I found that the audience would normally assume this to be after film one in chronological order when in fact it's the 5th film if you do your research - just trying to get your head around that after watching the films back to back will confusing. Some of the standout scenes include the Leprechaun conjuring an illusion of Bridget who wants her breasts kissed only for it to actually be lawnmower blades; the St Patrick's day Leprechaun's all drinking in a bar together who treat Warwick's Leprechaun as one of their own; the tree lair of the Leprechaun with it's magical tunnels; the consequences of locking a Leprechaun in a wrought iron safe and what happens to anyone who'll free him; and not forgetting the Leprechauns super charged customer painted drag racing/ go-kart!!!!Similarly to the first film the lead up the end of the film is an almighty battle between good and the Leprechaun. Will he survive this film? Will he win? Will somebody kill him with wrought iron or a 4 leafed clover? Will Bridget nullify the wedding? Will Cody ever get a break with his famous tour job? Can a gold covered chocolate coin be responsible for the downfall of evil folklore? Will he come back to be in a third film?? You'll have to read my review of "Leprechaun 3" to find out ;)

mtrahan97 This movie is a marvel to say the least. The first Leprechaun was such a horrible movie that I went into this without any trace of hope. I've seen Children of the Corn sequels okay? I know what I'm in for. This seemed like something I would loathe being on my screen. No one is more shocked than me that I actually consider this a... good movie. Not a guilty pleasure but a... GOOD MOVIE? This is a movie that fixes 90% of the problems from the first movie. The pacing is miraculously improved, the acting is improved, the humor is improved, Warwick Davis is better, it is more creative, it does a better job exploring and parodying Irish myth and lore, and it has... wait for it... likable characters!!! Imagine that!!!Sure, finding a wife is no better a premise than finding gold, and wrought iron as kryptonite makes as much sense as a four leaf clover. Also some things in general don't really make sense and you get a bad line reading here and there. But good god, I was actually not annoyed this time! How refreshing. If I caught a Leprechaun and received wishes, one would be that they just released this in place of the first movie. Jennifer Anniston didn't need that film. I didn't need that film. It is a complete waste of time and should be skipped at all costs. This one, however, is actually entertaining and stands on its own as a fun horror comedy. I can only hope that the later sequels can hold on to this quality.

lost-in-limbo What am I doing watching this film? I disliked the first film, and I've seen "In Space" which was completely stupid. So far what I've seen, hasn't clicked. This first sequel is an improvement, but not by much. Mediocre at best, nothing flashy. This time there's some sort of narrative attached, if trivial and slight, but it bears no relation to the first film other than having Warwick Davis' fiendish leprechaun returning to cause havoc. Dead bodies begin piling up and the jokey humour looms large. It clearly plays for cheap laughs and jolts. This time it's set in the big smoke, where the centuries old leprechaun finds himself in Hollywood on St Patrick's Day to claim a bride who sneezes three times. This feature is playful, crude, risqué and mean-spirited, but moves at a welcoming pace. The make-up effects stand-up really well and the set designs, especially the hidden lair demonstrated some visual candy. In the title role Davis is having fun, spitting out those witty puns and it shows with him being truly being unrecognisable in costume. While the rest of the cast are acceptable, without making all that much of an impression. Although Shevonne Durkin sure was easy on the eyes. Still there are a lot of TV stars showing up in small/cameo parts. The eccentric set-pieces do standout more so than the story, but there is some creativity and twisted ideas around its daftness. Too bad I find it all to end on a whimper though, after a smart gag to outwit the leprechaun.
