So true

[Jennifer Lawrence Fan]

So I just got done watching Leprechaun: Origins which is on demand starting today. And yeah. Nothing like the original Leprechaun movies. This is more one of those In name type of movies. It's almost like a SyFy creature of the week stuff they show. The Leprechaun is sorta like Pumpkinhead and The Predator. I say this cause there is something in this that looks like the predator vision in it.

[Show spoiler]Even one character gets their spine ripped out halfway.

[Show spoiler]The story is totally cliche and something out a ep of Supernatural deal with a similar thing. In this the towns people go into a cave and steal the Lep's gold. So in return they have to leave sacrifices for him. Yeah, in this one he eats people.

Alot of the stuff is predictable before it happens.The only connection to the original is the "F**k you, Lucky Charms" line in this aswell. This happens at the end of the movie as the lead girl is the only one left alive. She is running through the fields or woods. She trips over something and happens to see a backpack and in it there are some gold coins. Plus a machete sticking in the ground from the couple we see in the opening of the movie. She takes the coins and the lep is face to face with her. She throws the coins into the air as the lep looks at them. She says The F you, lucky charms line. Takes the machete out the ground and slices off his head.

But at the end of the movie as she runs to safety we hearing a growling noise to say he's alive yet. After he had his eat cut off!

So if it were rated out of 5. I'd maybe say 1.5/5

Also the film says 90 minutes, but the actual movie is 78 minutes and so many seconds. So almost 12 minutes of end credits.

So he doesn't look like Warwick Davis' version of Leprechaun... at all?

No. A picture of what he looks like was posted in here. Neither does he speak at all. Just growls. The laughing you hear at the end of the trailer is actually one of the humans I think.

As I said a total creature feature movie. So if anyone is expecting it to look or have that same feel of the original you'll be sorely disappointed. There is no comedy in this movie. It plays it for totally serious. Aside from the thing of the one girl telling her friends the thing after them is a Leprechaun and they laugh.

From the first so many minutes of the movie you can already tell the plot. He's almost sorta like a side villain.

[Show spoiler]Seeing as the townies stole the Lep's gold from inside of a cave. And the town's folk need to leave a sacrifice every so often for the lep and will the towns folk alone. They lure kids into a cabin and lock it shut and let the lep in.

Hmm. What a crock.

I'll still check it out eventually, but that's sorely disappointing.

I mean it's a okay monster movie as long as you don't try to connect this and the first.

Wow.... lame. They turned him into a generic monster with no personality?

Why even call the movie Leprechaun. Feh. Just feh. At least the boxset has the other films.

[Randall Flagg]

I thought Hornwaggle was the new Leprechaun? Was it a small monster at least?

Indeed. If your entire wrestling persona gimmick is that of a Leprechaun...

Why the hell would they hire him and then make the Leprechaun in the film some generic growling monster.

Is that what this is? Wow wtf?

[Donl1282]

Well as long as it's a true serious horror film I'll give them credits. I never understand why they try to make horror films funny, if that's the producer's goal then just make comedy films.

They probably just used him since seeing it was a WWE film and he works for the company.

I guess since this is more a less a reboot of the series. They tried something different with the lore. But people see the name Leprechaun and that will see it to most people alone.

yes, he was the new Leprechaun. It was about the size of him. Just covered in alot of make up and all kinds of other stuff. if you didn't know he was playing the role. You wouldn't recognize him.

The original Lephrechaun was awesome because it had comedy and horror together. If they are going to remake it why not keep to the same spirit?

You can tell they tried going for a far more serious vibe. Though some of the lines the actors are funny. But they aren't suppose to me. Just how the actors overacted.
