Nothing like a St. Patty's viewing of Leprechaun. Way more of a comedy than horror. Definitely the best in the franchise, but I'm not sure that's saying a lot. How this poorly constructed, B-movie spawned 5 sequels baffles me. Warwick Davis's makeup and Jennifer Aniston's hotness are about the only things good here.

The first film in the saga and probably one of the best of the entire lot, which doesn't mean a lot. It stars Willow (who will star in all the other films), Jennifer Aniston and that guy who was a real dick in Pee Wee's Big Adventure. It's set at some run down farm house in God knows where. The protagonists show up to paint the house, which they suck at, and end up getting more then they bargained for when a Leprechaun comes to life in the basement. This movie isn't really scary and at times, is pretty funny, which is the over all tone of every film in the franchise.

Before Da Hood. Before Space. Before Friends. Jen Aniston battled Willow. Picking four leaf clovers and shining shoes. Horror movie or family film? Either way, not a good one. Nice makeup on Warwick though.

First of all, Jennifer Aniston did some terrible acting in here.
Also, this film really sucks but if you're in for that type of thing, go for it.
The end.

A funny and bloody 90's horror film. The story is ridiculous but, still fun. Theres decent kills especially the one involving a pogo stick and enough blood to keep a horror fan interested. Not a masterpiece by any stretch of the imagination, but it is the best of the franchise (equal to the third) and it's very nastalgic for me. This is always a fun watch on St. Patty's day.

Peliculón mierder donde los haya con Jennifer Aniston antes de Friends.

The luscious Jennifer Aniston makes the movie some kind of worthwhile?!

This is one of the classic bad films of the 1990's, technically a horror comedy. The only thing is, it's really just a comedy. It's not even a little bit scary.

A little kid and a retarded man find a bag of gold at the end of a rainbow. A psychopathic leprechaun chases them and their friends in order to get it back. But the leprechaun has a weakness... if he sees dirty shoes he must stop whatever he's doing and clean them.

It's has a bad script, bad acting, bad camera work, and probably the worst lighting effects I've ever seen. The leprechaun character is more of a clown than anything, doing silly things when he should be threatening or killing people. This is not a good movie.

Of course it spawned a cult following, and then five sequels.

Oh, and this was Jennifer Aniston's first movie, by the way.

Absolutely horrible. Why did I watch thia again. I want a wish and it would be that I've never seen this.

This week Forest and Cory celebrate St. Patrick's Day with Shamrock-Shakes and a Warwick Davis double-feature! Don't get your hopes up, you will find no Willow here. Listen as they share their thoughts, and nightmares, on the films Leprechaun and Leprechaun in Space.

Also, the boys share their love and loathing for the Highlander movies, soundtracks written and recorded by the epic Queen and they comment on the passing of pro-wrestling's Paul Bearer.

It gets half a star because I'm a sucker for period films (the sweet smell of early 90's is unmistakable) and for the makeup. Otherwise, awful film.

"This old Lep, he played one. He played pogo on his lung."

Complete and utter crap.
You can't attempt to turn a horror movie about killer Leprechaun into a drama about a kid trying to raise money so his mentally challenged friend can "get his brain fixed".

I think the producers were on crack..

I have always liked this movie. It's the best of the leprechaun movies and is a fun time!

I still can't figure out how they managed to build a franchise around .. this.
