The Leprechaun (Warwick
Davis) is eager to get his bride on his
1000th birthday on St. Patricks Day as
when the woman of his dreams sneezes
three times without someone saying god
bless you my child she becomes his bride
but however when he tries to make a
daughter of one of his slaves named
William O Day (James Lancaster) but
William saves her and the Leprechaun's
marriage is jeapardised so he has to wait
1,000 years later on St. Patricks Day.
Well the Leprechaun awakens present day
to look for his bride along with some
gold. Well he spots a teenage girl named
Bridget (Shevonne Durkin) as her and her
boyfriend named Cody (Charlie Heath)
tries to scam tourists into their limo
for money called Darkside Tours trying to
make out that they are going to horror
film celebrities homes.
Eventually the Leprechaun makes Bridget
sneeze three times and she is trapped in
his cave but Cody took one of the
Leprechaun's gold coins and he will kill
to get it back while Cody tries to find a
way to rescue Bridgette from the
Leprechaun's evil grasp before he weds
her as he tries to look into the history
of a Leprechaun to find out how to stop
him.
Normally most
sequels aren't better than the original
film itself but I enjoyed this one much
better.
There was more comedy used in this film
with lightens it uop plus it was a
different story altogether just the same
evil Leprechaun with his dark humor while
killing with his evil magic.
There's tons of neat scenery in the film
and lots of fun touches throughout this
film too.
The acting is in
top shape for this film as Warwick
Davis uses his same humor for this
film and still doing well with his role
as the evil Leprechaun
Charlie Heath is impressive as
the typical teenage scammer and it's
great watching his dynamic performance
when his character tries to rescue his
girlfriend.
Speaking of which, Shevonne Durkin
is talented and looks great in her role
proving that she can pull off as a
character actress.
The best out of them all is Sandy
Baron as he knows how to play a
convincing drunk but wisens up when he
finds out that he must save the day.
Truly a classic performance by him.
We have a special appearance by Clint
Howard as he pulls off well playing
a comedic tourist.
Pkus we have a memorable cameo by Michael
McDonald before his fame in MAD
TV as a waiter at a coffee shop
with adds a nice touch to this film
Shevonne
Durkin takes off her top fully
breasted during a scene when the
Leprechaun tries to fool a teen that she
wants to seduce him in a garage
A finger is torn
off an agents hand
A face of a waiter is blistered to pieces
The Leprechaun explodes
Rodman Flender
brings the goods to this film and
makes the film very watchable.
He shows a great opening of the film of Warwick's
character trying to find his bride 1000
years before present day with a great
forestry area surrounding him
Then there's a nice moment when he
returns present day still as evil as ever
showing great effects of a tree lighting
up
His most memorable direction was with the
phony limousine tour involving Heath, Durkin,
Howard and some other characters
playing the tourists as it shows non stop
comedy there and then we have a cameo by
Broadway actress-singer Linda Hopkins
bitching and complaining about them
snooping around her neighborhood which
gives it a nice and entertaining touch
delivering a couple of laughs.
Of course he directed Heath and Durkin
terrifically together making them a
convincing couple caring for one another
Also Durkin and Baron were
great playing off of one another in
trying to trick Davis as the Lerpechaun
and fuinding out his weaknesses.
Flender's whole environment with
this low budget film was just brilliant.
Jonathan Elias
does the typical classical type playing
on a synthesizer but he is wonderful at
it proving that this isn't too typical
with a low budget film
Leprechaun:
It's the seventeenth of March. The feast
of St. Patrick.
William O'Day: And your birthday.
Leprechaun: 'Tis a special

she'll be me bride when she sneezes
thrice.

Morty: Why not?
Cody: Because you're plastered!
Morty: What difference does that
make? Now, never forget rule number one.
Cody: I know, never turn down a

Morty: I may be a little loose,
but I am not so far gone that I would
turn away a packed hearse.
[Morty drunkenly tries to exit the

Cody: Me? That's crazy!
Morty: That's what I told the
cops, now what the hell happened?
Cody: A leprechaun did it.
Morty: Maybe I should call the
cops.
Morty:
Okay so you found a gold coin and it
looks like the one in this book. It's
probably worth some cash. But this
leprechaun stuff...
Cody: Listen, it says
"Leprechauns are devious creatures.
They live for trickery, even get pleasure
out of it".
Morty: Cody, if you were taking
some dope you would tell me, right?
Morty:
I should've returned that book to the
library five years ago! I don't know what
you saw, but leprechauns don't exist!
Leprechaun: What's that ya say?
Leprechauns don't exist?
African
American Leprechaun: Yo man, want me

I'm a Lepre*CAN*. Mph! Cahn.
Leprechaun:
Do you wish me out of the safe?
Morty: Yes, goddammit! I wish you
out of the safe! Where the hell are you?
Leprechaun: You'll have to open
the door. It's wrought iron. Remember?
Didn't you read the book?
Morty:
[Dying] Help me.
Leprechaun: Love to, friend, but
you're all out of wishes. Ha ha ha ha!
Leprechaun:
Cry as you may, cry as you might; its
going to be one hell of a wedding night.
Bridget:
How did you know it wasn't me you gave
the coin to before?
Cody: He kisses differently than
you.
