Leprechaun Origins (2014)
Country: USA
Director: Zach Lipovsky
Main Stars: Dylan Postl, Stephanie Bennett, Andrew Dunbar, Melissa Roxburgh, Garry Chalk, Brendan Fletcher, Teach Grant
Storyline: Back to Ireland to learn the origin of the leprechaun.
Review (Spoils): Starts off with landscape that looks more like Canada than Ireland two young couples head off to the island as one of the young girls is a history buff. They pay someone to drop them off in field near the stone and they walk to the tavern to learn of the stone of the gods. Let me tell you a story type sandbox storyline.
Old man talks the young people to head out to a cabin to stay so they can see the stones of the gods near an old fallen in mine. With some terrible accents and a random shot at wild boars the young people still decide to stay. Noises in the night as the boys are total douches and ignoring the babes here comes the little beast at night.
We have a very bad accent from the old man son, douche boyfriends, sweet babe (Stephanie Bennett), gold, camera dragging pulls, roars, an earring rip, nice leg tear, gun shots, tongue stud rip, bloody claws scratches, monster leprechaun which has visual able zero connection, an insane axe to the head scene (worth the film right there), hay prong through the chest, spine pull, shitty Teach Grant acting, machete head chop,
Rating: Garry Chalk was awesome enjoy the acting and character and of course the nice 2min bedroom shot of Stephanie Bennett was enjoyable. The storyline itself was not bad but the roaring sounds and the idiots’ boys was a little too much where you can have a wish they would go first. Be warned also this has no comedy and no classic Warwick Davis in this budget. Not even sure if this film is related to the classic series. I personally was not expecting much from this as the classic series is a hit and miss. But this basically has zero connection is a fun monster film. It can drag in parts, but the gore is out there, and it was something a little fun and different. I was surprised and enjoyed the ride “Fuck you Lucky Charms!” Classic!
