Leprechaun Returns | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

A cheap and nasty attempt to, yet again, revive the Leprechaun franchise, Leprechaun Returns fails to be original, modern, or entertaining.

Kostanski should really be working with material that matches his imagination and wonderfully silly sense of humor, but this career detour is acceptable fun, and the first Warwick-less installment to ease the pain of the actor's absence.

While there's a lot of charm to be found, it's also sloppy in its world-building and doesn't give us anyone to truly root for. It doesn't feel like anything we haven't already seen before, either.

With its bare-bones plot, lackluster characters and foolish adherence to slasher tropes, Leprechaun Returns is a film that should have been left at the bottom of the well.

With some riotously inventive kills, a load of silly humour, and a few throwbacks to the original, Returns should please long-time fans of the series and newcomers alike.
