A
group of friends from south
central Los Angeles finds a
treasure chest full of gold coins
in a burial ground only to find
out that it's owned by an evil
Leprechaun (Warwick Davis) as a
wise old psychic named Esmerelda
(Donzaleigh Abernathy) warns them
about his dangers who stake his
gold.
They all take it with a grain of
salt as they end up spending it
on expensive things plus they are
terrorised by gangsters led by
the nasty Watson (Shiek
Mahmud-Bay) who owe them money
too but yet they end up dropping
like flies when they encounter
the Lep's deadly wrath.
They go back to the aid of
Esmerelda as she tells them the
only way to kill him is having a
four leaf clover.
Hopefully this will
be the last of of the Leprechaun
series as it is really getting
totally boring.
It's nice to see the story of how
he became evil out of the fairy
tale during the beginning of the
story and I loved the setting
with the cast members playing
gangsters but that says it all
throughout this film.
The acting is just
above average for this one but
it's nothing special to say the
least.
This is probably Warwick
Davis' best performance out
of all the films as he showed
great menacing and powerful
actions to his character as the
Leprechuaun
Tangi Miller seemed rather
boring during the beginning of
this film but she gets better a
quarter way through.
Supporting actor Shiek
Mahmud-Bey played a perfect
bad ass dealer as he seems one of
those every day gangsters.
Supporting actress Donzaleigh
Abernathy was also wonderful
as her role playing a
fortuneteller.
The Leprechaun's
eye is stabbed out of his socket
An officers leg is torn off
A heart is ripped out
A jaw is ripped off
Michael
Whittaker composes alot of
powerful classical music in this
film which works better than the
story.
Steven
Ayromloo directs this film
at an even pace and does
especially well with Warwick
Davis at being comedic.
We shows nice events with him
smoking a marijuana pipe and
getting high which looks funny as
well as him being intoxicated
walking into the kitchen.
He performs a nice battle scene
between two nasty police
officers.
We also have nice confrontation
between supporting actor Shiek
Mahmud-Bay (Who was also well
directed showing mean expressions
too) and Davis about
wanting his gold coins back and
have a goofy battle scene
together.
He directed Donzaleigh
Abernathy terrifically of
telling the dangers of the
Leprechaun and does a nice brief
battle too with good electrical
effects.
There's a nice camera shot on Laz
Alonso looking menacing when
shooting the Leprechaun
Leprechaun: What's up
ninjas?
Policeman:
[after Leprechaun rips off his
leg] Hey! You give that back!
[Leprechaun
is talking on a cell phone]
Girl: How tall you, sweet
thing?
Leprechaun: How tall am I?
Uh, about 3 foot 6.
Girl: 3 foot 6?
Leprechaun: Yeah, but,
but, I make up for it in other
areas, if you know what I mean.
[pause, then dial tone]
Leprechaun: Hello?
