Summary: Gosh and begorrah, this is one silly horror movie
Review: The basic premise of this movie isn't that bad: a really ugly, mean leprechaun is robbed of his gold, forced to lie trapped in a crate for ten years, and then comes out willing and able to kill everybody who stands in the way of his recovering his gold. That could work. Unfortunately, it doesn't, not in this movie. Leprechaun is the sort of movie I might expect to see from someone who took a dare that he couldn't make a horror movie in less than seven days. The movie does have one good thing going for it, though, and it's not Warwick Davis' inane portrayal of the villain. Although you may never hear her mention this film among her credits, a young Jennifer Aniston glides enticingly throughout this entire film, making one forget at times just how silly and mediocre the movie actually is. Aniston plays Tory Reding, a spoiled young lady from L.A. forced to spend the summer with her father in an all but condemned house in North Dakota. She refuses to stay in the nasty new house only to run into a young painter outside who accuses her of being afraid, at which point she immediately decides to stay after all. What no one knows is that the house's former owner not only stole a leprechaun's gold, he trapped the little bugger in a crate down in the basement, sealed with the magic of a four leaf clover. Thanks to Ozzie, a backward but good-natured member of the far from talented Three Guys Who Paint, the little green guy escapes and goes on the rampage again. The brains of the painters' outfit, a 12 year old boy, actually finds a bag of gold at the end of the rainbow, yet still he (and everyone else) refuses to believe Ozzie's leprechaun story. The rest of the movie consists of your basic "when leprechauns attack" scenario, providing nothing resembling fright or dark comedy or anything else. There is a slight bit of blood and gore, but the leprechaun spends more time trying to be funny (with little success) than providing us with satisfying deaths. Far too many ridiculous sight gags and tricks are played, insulting the intelligence of even the youngest of viewers, and the climax occasions nothing more than a shrug of the shoulders on the part of the viewer. In the world of horror movies, Leprechaun is mediocrity personified.

Summary: Suckfest 1993 Style
Review: The worst movie in the entire world is better than this. Rated R...perhaps for "Ridiculous"? there was absolutely nothing scary about this movie, except for the lack of talent and the wardrobe. Eeesh. Who would subject themselves to this movie? Unless you want a great laugh, stay awayyyy.

Summary: Leprechuan
Review: This film is about an Irish Gentlemen, Daniel O'Grady who steals the gold from a Leprechaun. The Leprachaun, who is anything but sweet, comes to O'Grady's house and kills his wife. However, O'Grady manages to lock the Leprechaun in a box and put a 4-leaf clover on the top(The only thing that can kill it.) 10 years later, Tory(Jennifer Aniston)and her dad(John Sanderford)stay at the house. However, a bumbling idiot(Mark Holton)accidentally releases the Leprechaun, who begins to kill as he searches for his gold... Most people accuse the film of attempting to use a creature that's usually sweet and nice and make it a evil little devil that ain't scary. First off, no matter how good of a script it was, there's no way you could make a Leprechaun scary. Can't be done. So instead, they went a little comical with the Leprechaun and the whole movie, even though the film seemed a bit more serious than some of the sequels. Warwick Davis and Jennifer Aniston were great as the Villan and our heroine. Mark Holton, Ken Olandt, John Sanderford and that little kid were good too(Same can't be said about the sequels.) All in all, this film is great. It's so hilarious and it's something different to look at. While the Leprechaun is kind of a mix of Chucky's Size and Non-Scare ability, he has a bit of Freddy Krueger's morbid humor, but takes it his own way instead of copying off of Mr.Krueger. This film is definetley one of the best Horror/Comedies out there. I highly recommend it. Not exactly Shakespeare, but fun to watch on a Saturday Night with friends.

Summary: Cheesy, silly, fun
Review: This is another of my fav movies. This first installment beats out the second and comes close to the third. Warwick is hilariously funny as the Leprechaun, and its too bad that he's one of Hollywood's underappriciated actors. If you like cheesy, campy fun this movie is definately for you!

Summary: "Jennifer Aniston"
Review: This is one of Jennifer Aniston's best work. Though she has done better in Friends as Rachel Green. She is now pregnant and married to Brad Pitt! The movie is RECCOMENDED! Outrageously Funny and scary! I honestly think te little green horror is scary! Though the rest of the sequels aren't as good1 Jennifer Aniston is my favority heroine!

Summary: You'll be sorry.
Review: This is one of the most mesmorizingly awful horror movies I've ever seen! Irritatingly inept and insipid, this slasher has dubious jokes, sharp shocks of gore, ill logic, and mind-numbing predictability to make you wish you had rented something else. The movie is so banal you can play "Mystery Science Theatre" while watching it. Even Halloween 6 would do the job better! While wathcing this movie on T.V. I can remember what my Dad said after commercial breaks: "Aw, we have to watch the movie? I was hoping we could watch more commercials!" That statement should tell you something.

Summary: leprechaun
Review: this movie is a definite blend of horror and comedy. What is better than a short little leprechaun running around trying to find his pot of gold. A definite film for people who like these type(horror-comedy) of films.
