Summary: the best box set ever
Review: All five of these movies were pure genius. The reviews arn't that good but the movies are inventive, funny(sometimes even intellecual humor), and down right terrifing. With so much packed into five movies you'll find yourself asking yourself WHERE HAVE THE LEPRACHAUN MOVIES BEEN DOING ALL OF MY LIFE! Order as soon as possible.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Leprechaun Pot of Gore Collection REVIEW
Review: Any bad movie fan will want to pick up this collection of Leprechaun movies. Featuring all five movies, this DVD collection doesn't have much to offer in the way of special features aside from trailers but fans of non-stop gore and bad jokes will love.

LEPRECHAUN- Before she made it big with "Friends", the future Mrs. Brad Pitt herself, Jennifer Aniston starred in the first Leprechaun movie. Probably the best of the series.

LEPRECHAUN 2- A decent sequel with all kinds of gore and bad Irish jokes. Any movie where a guy is killed making love to a fan can't be all bad.

LEPRECHAUN 3- This one is pretty much the same as the last one with even dumber characters and a Vegas setting.

LEPRECHAUN 4- The Leprechaun in Space? Hilariously awful. Features Miguel A. Nunez, Debbie Dunning (The Tool Time Girl on "Home Improvement") and a cross-dressing robot.

LEPRECHAUN IN THE HOOD- Aside from Ice-T as a record mogul, this one is just terrible. Lots of dumb stereotypes and for some reason, there is a whole lot of men dressing up like women. What is up with this cross-dressing ...?

Summary: The Leprechaun Series
Review: I love the leprechaun series. My personal rating would be a 5+ because I enjoy this. But many movies in this series were not that good, even though I enjoyed them, hense the 4.

With each sequel, the series got a little bit cheezier. The leprechaun series is along the lines of the Friday the 13th series in that the story line is basically the same throught all the films. Somebody steals the leprechauns gold and he goes on a killing spree to get it back. There are few accomplished actors in this series. These films are supposed to be horror, but there is so much comic relief in them it's hard to tell if they are actually comedies.

Leprechaun - On a small rural farm, the leprechaun is released from a crate where it was held captive. It goes on a rampage looking to find his lost gold.

Leprechaun 2 - The leprechaun returns only this time he is in search of his bride. Oh the way he looses some of his gold. The people who have the gold use it as a bargaining tool to get the leprechauns ill-gotten bride back from his clutches.

Leprechaun 3 - The leprechaun makes his way to Las Vegas in search of his told. The people who come across his gold learn that it grants wishes. The leprechaun leaves nobody, who touches his gold, unpunished.

Leprechaun 4 - The leprechaun now battles a team of Marines in space in search of his gold and his bride.

Leprechaun in the Hood - The Leprechaun now ventures into the ghetto in search of his stolen gold.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Leprachaun is Pure Gold!
Review: I love these movies. I haven't bought the DVD set but I have them on VHS and plan to replace them as soon as my wife gives me the permission to spend the money.

I think In the Hood and In Vegas is the two best ones myself. The first one was really good too but that slow fellow got on my nerves.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great series
Review: I only gave it 4 because the movies went downhill, pretty evenly. But don't most sequels? The first one ruled just so much, and the other ones after that were going from good to okay to all right to just "eh, I love this series, but this movie isn't as good." It is just a psychological viewpoint that we use to judge sequels before they truly get a chance.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: 3 disc boxset (regioun 4)
Review: I picked up the Leprechaun 3 disc box set here in Australia [...]

It contains the first 3. Theres no other box set here of Leprechaun. So I'll just reveiw the first 3 movies.

Leprechaun - Warwick Davis (Willow, Ewok Wicket) plays the Leprechaun who is hunting down a man who has stolen his gold. The old man tries to destory the Leprechaun but instead leaves him inside a locked crete in his basement where he failed to finish him off. The old man has a stroke and moved to a retirment home. 10 years later a father and daughter move into the house. The daughter is played by *barf* Jennifer Aniston (Friends) she is an abnoxious teenager who doesnt like the house but decides to stick around when she finds a local buy she fancies. Eventualy the crete is opened and the Leprechaun escapes his prison and searching for his gold. Killing anybody who has his gold or gets in the way, the sinister warped mind of the Leprechaun seeks out his victoms singing his ryhems. Will they survive? Or will the Leprechaun take his revenge? Only a dozen ways to find out. The other charctors of the movie, I do recignise some of them, but I dont know there names, I know the kid was in "Mr. Nanny" the Hulk hogan movie. And The fat guy was Chubby in Teenwolf and in the recent Gacy movie. But I dunno there names, anyway who cares...

Leprechaun 2 - Somehow the Leprechauns back. And he be searchin' for 'is bride. He is stalking a bueatiful girl played by some unknown who is a blood reletive to someone he tried to marry 1000 years before, or something like that. But he's going to have to fight to keep her because her boyfriend wont let her go without a fight. with the help of his horror tours boss. The 2 of them go looking for the Leprecahun and try to find his girl. Theres a few funny scenes, and some low budget but ok effects.
About the only actor I recignised was Michael McDonald (MadTV) who plays a queer cafe worker who says the wrong thing to the Leprechaun and pays for it.

Le[rechaun 3 - The Leprechaun is somehow a stone statue that a bum takes to a pawn shop in Las Vega to cash in for some gas money. He warns the owner not to take the amulet off its neck. But does so anyway. Of coarse the wee little bugger is back and up to his usual tricks. And still someone has stolen one of his coins and so he's out looking for it and doing what he usualy does. A few more funny scenes, and some things that had potentioal, but probably didnt have the budget to do more with. Cant say I knew any of the actors, but that just makes the movie good to have unknowns, you dont really wanna be watching the one person you do recignise all the time.

I wouldnt call these scary horror movies. Some parts of them are humorus, there's hardly any killing in any of them, not much gore for any of you blood thirsty fans. Most of the death scenes are cut away. I havent got a clue what the next 2 Leprechaun movies where like, but I aint in a hurry to see them. The DVD's dont contain any bonus features at all. You get the menu/scene selection and the movie, and thats it. Not even subtitles!

But the movies are pretty good. There b grade horror flicks, I wouldnt praise them, I wouldnt say there great, but I wouldnt say they are bad either. Leprechaun is a cool image. The make up looks great on Warwick Davis and he plays a pretty good role of the sinister and coniving Leprechaun and his evil magic.

A recomended movie for you softcore horror fans who like the Imaage of a cool villian. Or worth it to pass time on a rainy day.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Disappointing..
Review: I'm a true fan of the first Leprechaun movie. Warwick Davis and Jennifer Aniston really make this film great. The humor interlaced with the story is hilarious. A true cult classic. Obviously filmed on a limited budget, the characters are written with some decent depth. As much depth as would be expected anyways. Believing that the sequels would be worth the cost of buying the boxed set, I purchased them. Sadly mistaken, I wasted my money. 2-5 are some of the worst written movies I've ever seen. Not to mention you don't recognize a single actor until Part 5 where Ice-T and Coolio come into play. They're ...not worth buying. Buy the original. Love it, watch it often. Rent the rest. And be glad you saved your money.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: For The Leprechaun Fans
Review: Just wanted to say love the Leprechaun films. I hope they make more and they should make a Leprechaun Back To Ireland. Very cool DVD set if your a leprechaun fan you have to have this lads.

Rating: 4 stars
