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
birthday for a leprechaun. I'm
one thousand years old. Tonight,
I can claim me bride.
Leprechaun:
She sneezes once, she sneezes
twice, she'll be me bride when
she sneezes thrice.
Leprechaun:
The only whiskey is Irish
whiskey!
[an
angry woman chases them away from
her house]
Cody: Oh by the way, that
was the final resting place of
Bela Lugosi.
Tourist: Then who the hell
was that?
Cody: Um, his stepdaughter
Stella Lugosi.
Cody:
You can't drive the tour.
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 paying customer.
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 bathroom, but walks into a
toilet]
Morty: Of course, there's
always rule number two.
Cody: Which is?
Morty: Never kill a paying
customer.
Leprechaun
(Tears off an agents finger):
Me's going to like this town
(Licks the finger) Finger lickin
good!
Leprechaun:
[Showing Bridgette the
skeleton of William O'Day] A
little family reunion. You have
his cheek bones.
Morty:
They found this dead kid at
Bridgette's, she's missing,
everybody says you did it.
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 gold?
Leprechaun:
[Drunk] Pour all you want,
pour all you can, you won't beat
me, 'cause 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.
