Soon, the friends will find that one of Ireland's most famous legends is a terrifying reality.
Likes : From what ive heard this is supposed to be a prequel or a re-imagine of the old films of the same name,but seriously this film was none of the above, the storyline didn't have anything to do with Leprechaun over than the gold.
Eleven years since the last Leprechaun film, Lionsgate and WWE Studios bring us a useless re-imaging of the cult classic Leprechaun horror villain from the early nineteen nineties. The original franchise lasted for ten years and had six films, one even involving the Leprechaun in Space. This re-imaging has nothing on the original film. The original film was different for its genre at the time, while this film simply tries to be the same as the other genre films, which is doesn't do to bad but the story is very weak.The acting is ok in place but this film is so flawed its awful.
Dislikes : If this film was supposed to be origins of the the first film's they should have had the Leprechaun in this instead of weird looking creatures they put in it because the only thing mention that says anything is the gold but this was not a Leprechaun concept, maybe in mythological creature sense yes, but anything else no.
Some of the acting is a little wooden & moment you feel like this film has no intelligences special curtain scene when a creature is in the other room you run into the other, you stand in the door way to the room you just ran from is just how bad this film gets.
This is a film that supposed to represent Ireland.....where on earth did this film represent Ireland, this just looked like a normal village in america with a few people speaking Irish, this is a film that could of had potential to be a great film but the concept & storyline just complete falls flat.
This just looks like a cheap SyFy channel movie that seriously was shockingly god awfully to watch, nothing about this film scream scary or portrays the legend in an way, it just looks like another B movie creature feature on a low budget, sadly this is one i would avoid watching, but some may like this film.
Overall : Weak storyline, Nothing to do with the legend that is Leprechaun other than the gold, its just a poor film that could of been better done.
Rating: 3.5 out of 5 for entertainment / 3.2 out of 10 for concept / storyline
