Summary: Dull
Review: I'm a huge fan of these cheezy, low budget sci-fi films, but this one falls short even by my low standards. Our leprechaun pal is trying to get a princess to marry him, so that he can take over her kindgom, but a group of Marines storms in and blasts him to bits. He, well, how to describe it...he "accompanies" them onboard their spaceship, and comes back to life. Then he proceeds to kill them off.

I would have really enjoyed this film if it had a tongue-in-cheek sort of humor to it, but instead it often tries to be an outright comedy, especially when it comes to the 10% human / 90% robot doctor and his silly sidekick. This really destroys the mood and ruins what normally attracts me to these sort of films. The movie's got a lot of good things about it, and it could have been a great grade B flick, if not for the fact that the humor is too over-the-top.

It would have been better with more gory death scenes and more T&A, but there's very little of either. The female marine is really sexy in her disco dancing scene, but that's extremely short.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: For those who appreciate finer movies
Review: I'm tired of all the senseless and downright mean Leprechaun bashing. This is a wonderful movie. It has everything that makes good horror flicks. Nudity? check. Decent Body Count? check. A manical villian with a good sense of humor? Double check. When the Leprechaun is reborn from a soldier's penis, you know this is going to be a rock'un sock'um movie.

The sub-plots are well thought out, and the movie moves along at a breakneck pace when it needs to. The mad scientist who is all head and part washing machine is almost as evil as the Leprechaun himself. The heroine is a blond cutie who is in fact a 'biological engineer'. She doesn't go topless, buyt the monster rips her pants off in the end and all youcan say to yourself as she runs around in her leotard is "Damn! That's a close shave!"

The Leprechaun is the real star though and he is here in all his splendor. He wants the princess (a blond bimbo who shows off her [***] for know reason during a speech that makes NO sense), his gold, and well...that's about it. You can't keep a good man down though. When you got a guy like Leprechaun on the screen pulling the strings, you know you're in for a [***] of a ride. Highly recommended.

Summary: Aliens for everybody
Review: In the future of man kind, the leprechaun has become something of a threat to human existence. He hijacks a space craft to catch a spoiled princess and kill some dumb jocks with guns. Their only hope is the ship's female doctor and any member of the crew with a brain. Starts off well for a space movie with a refreshingly calm performance by the leprechaun. But the whole film goes to hell fast as it fails to use anything new to keep our attention focused. The viewer is left pretty happy to see it end.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "In Space"? Pure Gold
Review: This is one of the greatest movies I have ever seen. Despite it's small budget which resulted in horrible visual effects, costume design, and overall goodness, this movie scored on every level. The chick from home inprovement was so sexy and the random nudity from the princess was SO HOT!!!! Warwick Davis turned in his finest performance since the original Leprechaun, or even, dare I say, Willow. The part with the head dude dressing up like a woman, even hotter than the random nudity. Everyone should go see this, I swear. It has sexy results. Remember that scene that ripped off Star Wars? That is "As Good As it Gets"

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Awful
Review: This is quite possibly the worst movie in the history of film making. I began thinking to myself, "No way could this get ANY worse", but to my suprise, it did. I'm not quite sure how this movie was funded, seeing that the 3rd Leprechaun movie would surly be enough to drive the producers into bankruptcy, but somehow, a few dollars were scrapped up to pay for horrible effects and no name actors. I have just been informed a 5th Leprechaun movie was also made...why? If you are looking to waste an hour and a half of your time, please do something other than watch this movie.
