Hiking through the Irish countryside, a group of tourists encounter a group of demented locals living in a remote village offering sacrifices to a deadly leprechaun intending them to be next and must find a way to fight off the villagers as well as the deadly creature.This one isn’t nearly as bad as it’s reputation. One of the strongest aspects of this one is the fact that there’s a lot of work done here to enhance the historical connection of their trip with the folklore of the area. The film features some rather enjoyable work about the story of the Celtic origins of the area, from their stories about the past settlers and it’s connection to the different monuments around the woods to the different measures of protecting them from the creature as it sets out to hunt them one-by-one all manage to readily make this one quite nice in that regard. As well, there’s plenty of incredibly fun action to be had throughout here which carries this one along quite fast and frantic, with the opening stalking of the couple lost in the woods, the later scene of the group getting chased through the woods into the secondary cabin where not only do they come face-to-face with the true intentions behind the arrival there and a pretty enjoyable brawl in the woods where they’re captured and prepared for the sacrifice. The ensuing fight with the creature when it appears is rather decent as well, and the final lead-up to the brawl in the cabin where it tracks them down for it’s final big fight is a big highlight, yet none of this is possible without the glorious high-impact action with them trapped in the cabin unaware of the creature stalking them outside. Discovering their trapped inside, the first hints that something is inside with them and the different means of barricading themselves away and it breaking through which really enhances the suspense of the situation and gives this one a ton of action along the way. The finale does come close to the impact of this one, with the scenes of them inside the truck and escaping into the woods with the creature right on them and leading into the house ambush which is rather tense and gives this some solid action to finish this off on a high-note. Along with the fine gory kills, these here hold this one up over it’s few flaws as it did have a few troubling issues. The film’s biggest problem is the fact that the creature never really seems consistent in it’s motivations. Initially it seems to be after them for encroaching on it’s territory, then it goes after the franchises’ storyline of the desire for gold and then it becomes apart of the sacrificial storyline which doesn’t make any sense and contradicts most of the other issues here as it never relly seems to be consistent within itself. Neither of these really make it play that well into the franchise as well which gives it a rather odd feeling of being just an ordinary creature on the loose and has nothing in common with the others so it does feel somewhat out-of-place in that regard. The other problematic area is the rather lousy special effects on the creature itself, which is usually so blurry and distorted by the rapid-fire quick-cut editing that you never get any kind of view of it and can tell what it looks like until the end despite it being present most of the movie. These here really drag it out.
Rated R: Graphic Language and Graphic Violence.
Sure is an odd naming convention for a movie that contains neither an Origin nor a Leprechaun. I guess they didn’t have faith in the more accurate title: _The Lamer Adventures of Scar from The Descent for Some Reason_._Final rating:★½: – Boring/disappointing. Avoid where possible._
No luck, here. This movie is not a pot of gold. It’s a pot of shite.
F*** you, lucky charms! Honestly, all the Leprechaun films are pretty bad. These movies are so embarrassingly awful, that I really wonder how something like this gets rebooted. Directed by Zach Lipovsky and produced by World Wrestling Entertainment AKA WWE films, Leprechaun: Origins tells, the story of a group of unsuspecting Americans backpacking, through Ireland. They soon, came across a sinister town, hiding a dark secret and a mysterious creature trying to hunt them down. Without spoiling too much, the movie has potential, but sadly, getting rid of the comedy elements was a really bad idea. This film goes for serious scary tone, instead of going for campy-horror schlock. In my opinion, this is not a film franchise to try do a ‘legitimate’ serious horror film. After all, it’s about a Leprechaun for goodness sakes. I really miss, Warwick Davis as the Leprechaun. Davis had some really funny one-liners in the previous films. By not having him in this movie, made the film, a little more boring. It’s OK that the movie focus more on the lore, but the leprechaun in this film doesn’t even look like that, as well. They’re supposed to look like fairies in Irish folklore. Most, usually depicted the leprechaun as a little old man, wearing a coat and hat, who partakes in mischief, but this movie depicted them as naked Orc like creatures who speaks in animal-like groans. It was a bit disappointing because actor/wrestler Dylan Postl better known under his ring name Hornswoggle is known for playing a Leprechaun on TV. He does have some acting chops. If you’re a Hornswoggle fan, well, you’re out of luck. He doesn’t have one line nor do you ever see his face. He so generic in this role, he looks stupid in it. Hornswoggle is in a full prosthetic suit far too large for him. The fore-arms and legs are too long and you can see where it bends. The film is jarring in the way, he was shot. They try to hide the poverty of a rubber suit by using only quick, blurry shots of the monster. Not only, is it embarrassing, it gave me a headache. Whenever the monster shows up, we can never tell what’s going on, due to how blurry, it is. This is a major huge red flag. The movie is full of shaking cam, obfuscated shots, pitch dark scenes, and awkward quick cuts. It’s also funny to see that the killer cam shot has thermal vision and infrared vision as if similar to the one in 1987’s Predator. Does that mean that the Leprechaun came from the same planet as the Predator? Anyways, all the crappy shots make the movie really unwatchable for the most part. The only good shots of the film is the overview shots of the lush Irish countryside. The actors playing the Irish town folks were alright, even if they playing the Irish stereotypes, way too well. Garry chalk as Hamish is by far, the best thing, about this film. The actors playing the American backpackers were alright in their acting, but they come across as very dull. The writers, didn’t the actors really given anything to stand out. Most of their dialogue is pretty dumb. A good example of this, was the line ‘You got a pretty mouth’, a 1972’s Deliverance film reference line that somehow got into an Irish movie. I know, it’s supposed to represent how the backpackers felt about the local town folks, but it comes across, as ignorant, seeing how they’re in Ireland, not the Deep South. For a WWE movie, I was really shock that both well-known Irish wrestlers Dave ‘Fit” Finlay & Stephen Farrelly AKA Sheamus wasn’t in it. They would make this film, a little more interesting. Despite being Rated R, there is lack of harsh-language, little to no gore, and no nudity. The special effects were mediocre, at best. It’s quite cheap looking. The movie ends with a chances of sequel. It could happen, I hope not though. This had an extremely limited theatrical run, before going onto DVD. Overall: A film you might regret watching. Completely unengaging, and not bad enough to be funny. This franchise has gone to the deep end of the rainbow. Dirt-poor, and I watch a lot of WWE films. Avoid. This movie is far from magically delicious.
