#Leprechaun Back 2 Tha Hood

[fanofspooky]

Your luck just ran out!

[jasonsutekh]

Leprechaun films: 1 (1992), 2 (1994), 3 (1995), 4 In Space (1996), 5 in the Hood (2000), 6 Back 2 Tha Hood (2003), Origins (2014), and Returns (2018)

A magical being is inadvertently summoned to wreak havoc until he can retrieve his gold, no matter how much slaughter it takes.

Most of the films in this franchise have a decent balance between the comedy and gore elements which contrast nicely while varying the style of entertainment. They aren’t all the same as the third one twists the narrative into a more interesting dynamic by making the protagonist more powerful. There’s also some inventive magical lore involved and developed at times.

Some of it is inconsistent to say the least. The fourth film in particular is so bizarre that it’s irrelevant and the leprechaun is played out as an alien in it, despite still being Irish and cliché. It’s not the only sequel to get a little too silly to take seriously as a horror, or even a comedy horror, but others compensate in the opposite way by becoming too blood reliant.

Warwick Davis is the main actor for most of the title role and he has an odd kind of charisma about him, as some of the other great horror monsters do, the ones that can talk at least. What is occasionally a surprise is that some of the jokes, gags, and even limericks are actually pretty good, though they’re peppered into the general one-liners.

Despite the niche comedy in some sequels, Origins is probably the weakest as it doesn’t chronicle the actual origins as the title suggests, it relies entirely on the horror genre, but the leprechaun doesn’t talk so it may as well be any monster. In each film the characters are very variable in their reactions or inventiveness, even the smarter ones can show a profound lack of insight or sense.

Leprechaun: 5/10 -Can’t find a better example of average-

Leprechaun 2: 4/10 -It’s below average, but only just!-

Leprechaun 3: 5/10 -Can’t find a better example of average-

Leprechaun in Space: 3/10 -This one’s bad but there’s some good in it, just there-

Leprechaun in the Hood: 4/10 -It’s below average, but only just!-

Leprechaun Back 2 Tha Hood: 4/10 -It’s below average, but only just!-

Leprechaun Origins: 3/10 -This one’s bad but there’s some good in it, just there-

Leprechaun Returns: 4/10 -It’s below average, but only just!-

-The sorority house in Returns is named AU, the chemical symbol for gold, however the Greek symbol for u is Upsilon, the upper case of which is a capital y (Y).

-The clover patch in the original was planted on set and lit with green light. The four-leaf clover was so rare, a three-leaf one had to have an extra leaf glued on.

-In the third one Davis can briefly be seen without the horror make-up playing on one of the slot machines.

Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood

[neon-green-reagent]

Ranked: Leprechaun

Yep. I watched every Leprechaun movie. And you know what? I'm extremely happy that I did. This series is an absolute blast. Maybe I can convince you of that. We'll see.

Leprechaun: Origins : The weird thing about this movie is that it isn't a bad film. It's just an extremely bad Leprechaun film. If you're unfamiliar, the Leprechaun is a mischievous, funny, quippy asshole. For whatever reason, they decided to make this version dead silent. So no more jokes. Also, it looks like a creature from The Descent. Just a gray goblin. That means we're now in creature feature territory, and I wouldn't really call this a slasher anymore. The movie is serviceable as a monster movie, but it doesn't do anything especially thrilling, and it kicks all the other movies right in the face by changing the main villain so drastically. Also, origins? Of who or what? The Leprechaun? It's set in modern day... I just don't...

Leprechaun Returns : Eeeeee, okay. This is the latest movie. They rerailed the derailment of Origins with jokes and quips and making it a direct sequel to the first film. And it's... pretty meh. You know how, when Jackie Earle Haley replaced Robert Englund as Freddy... It's not that it was a BAD performance so much as not the same? Feels off? Yeah, that. They're not recapturing the magic like they'd hoped. Not to mention the movie knows it's shitty, so it keeps winking at the camera, and I'm obstinately telling my screen, "no. No, I refuse to be in on the joke, shut up." The whole time. It had its moments, but they were few. This was mostly just me wishing Warwick Davis was back.

Leprechaun : The very first movie, yeah. We started with a fizzly little fart, truly. It's a movie that's shockingly boring. With a lot of battle of the sexes humor that had me screaming into my hands. Our heroes do a lot of nothing. And while Warwick Davis as the titular villain proves to be very memorable right out of the gate, they struggle to find things for him to do. Apparently this was a family movie that became an R-rated horror film via reshoots. There's a lot of him wandering around, finding a stranger, and doing something magically delicious to them. But those moments are a little too few and far between. Still, that pogo death tho.

Leprechaun: Back 2 Tha Hood : Leprechaun in the Hood was a surprising success for the series. So they did it again. But worse? Not sure why you'd do that, but they did. Look out for a lot of special effects failures, uncomfortably close close-ups, and thin characters being stupid when the plot requires it. The kills are even hard to enjoy because of all the continuity errors within them. But if you're looking for a bad time while imbibing your drug of choice with friends? Here it is.

Leprechaun 2 : They were still pretty sure everyone wanted to see a constantly arguing couple fight the Leprechaun, and that's a shame, but at least he gets to do more here. The cast of characters is much more colorful than the first film, with a lot more silly gags and over the top acting. Basically, it takes a couple of movies before I decide a franchise isn't for me, and this is the point in my journey when I saw this had immense potential. That it was beginning to live up to with this extremely wacky and fun villain.

Leprechaun in the Hood : This film is incredibly well rounded. You care about the characters. I know, what a shock! In my comedy horror series? The deaths hold weight. Leprechaun being out of his element and still managing to rule to roost is very amusing. Ice-T knew what movie he was in. There is a major misstep with a trans character; I want to be clear and warn about that. But that is genuinely the only thing the movie gets wrong. It handles the plight of inner city guys just trying to make it better than you'd expect. While also being openly so bad, it's good.

Leprechaun 4: In Space : You read that right. Leppy-poo can join the ranks of Pinhead and Jason Voorhees. Also, he's treated like an alien? Instead of a magical creature from folklore? And it's Aliens but if it was stupid? And there's a morally bankrupt scientist who talks in a kind of wink-wink German accent. Who also becomes a parody of Brundlefly. Throughout the course of the movie, the Leprechaun has a lightsaber, gets blown up, returns to life by crawling out of a penis, flattens someone's face cartoonishly with a pan, becomes giant, explodes in the vacuum of space... I love this. Okay? I love this.

Leprechaun 3 : The perfect Leprechaun movie. They figured out FINALLY that what we want is MORE LEPRECHAUN. More of him hamming it up. More mugging for the camera. Weirder, magical kills. Warwick Davis having the time of his life. MORE MORE MORE. And we got it. Set in Las Vegas, which is perfect considering all I just said. A city of excess for a film of excess. There are human villains, plucky heroes. A guy starts turning into a Leprechaun and eating too many potatoes. This scrumptiously dumb shit is what I live for with this series. This is the tiptop of cheesy horror comedy goodness.

So Leprechaun is one of my favorite slasher villains now. My respect for Warwick Davis for bringing him to such vibrant life is through the roof. Man's a genius. It was also stunning to watch someone with a disability do the majority of his own extremely physical stunts in these films. What a fucking king. I'd love to see him return to the series, and until he does, if more of these get made, I'll watch with... my expectations sadly lowered.

Leprechaun 6: Back 2 Tha Hood

2003 • R • 1h27m

When Emily Woodrow and her friends happen on a treasure chest full of gold coins, they fail to heed the warnings of a wise old psych.

Once March arrives, the weeks leading up to St. Patrick's Day see a celebration of all things Irish or even just green, but for horror fans, we know it's a time to revisit the campy exploits of the Leprechaun franchise. Whether you're a devout fan of the franchise or entirely new to its exploits, SYFY will make sure that your holiday is filled with the series' deadly adventures by airing a marathon of the films on March 17th. From the original 1993 film to prequels to sequels, the marathon will include a variety of entries from all corners of the franchise. The event will kick off at 12 a.m. ET on March 17th. The original film sees the supernatural leprechaun (Warwick Davis) seeking vengeance against a family he believes has stolen his pot of gold. While the first sequel in the series also earned a theatrical release, subsequent sequels were released straight to video, up through 2003's Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood. Leprechaun Origins attempted to reinvent the concept, replacing the wise-cracking figure with a more monstrous creature, which earned a limited theatrical release. Leprechaun Returns aimed to channel the success of the original films, serving as a direct sequel to the debut installment, featuring Linden Porco in the title role. ⚡️🍿🍿🍿🍀 #comiccon #spoilermagazine #news #losangeles #podcast #magazine #art #instagram #galaxy #film #tv #hollywood #feature #movies #fandom #graphicdesign #nyc #spoiler #comicconradio #comicbooks #leprechaun #warwickdavis #stpatricksday (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp2F-HFOqfx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It still blows me away that the best Leprechaun movies are the hood ones. The characters are actually likeable and entertaining and the setting is used quite well, especially for movies late in a franchise. Most slashers, which the Leprechaun films kind of are, usually become repetitive after a while, ie most of the Friday the 13th movies are Jason telling kids to get off his lawn. And while the Hood movies also followed the pattern that the rest of the series has, the setting is more relevant because it drives the characters' actions. They want to either escape and/or better their lives. I was rooting for the heroes of both movies so hard that I cried whenever one of them died.

Plus the Hood movies had Ice-T, Radon Randell (Dreams!), Ice-T pulling a bat out of his afro in the opening scene (side note, he looks so much like my dad did in the 70s) and the Leprechaun rapping
