Dan O'Grady (Shay Duffin) steals 100 gold coins from a leprechaun (Warwick Davis) while on vacation in Ireland. The leprechaun follows him home, but Dan locks the murderous midget in a crate, held at bay by a four-leaf clover. Ten years later, J.D. Redding (John Sanderford) and his daughter, Tory (Jennifer Aniston), rent O'Grady's property for the summer. When their new neighbors accidentally release the leprechaun, he goes on a murderous rampage to reclaim his gold.

Jason Bailey Flavorwire May 28, 2016
The basic problem with 'Leprechaun' is that it just isn't scary, not even a little bit, not for the tiniest second, and that's the result of a basic failure at the conception stage. Go to Full Review

2.5/4
The first scene teases a decent 90s horror film, then Jennifer Aniston shows up, and it all falls apart. Go to Full Review

3/5
This gory, comical horror movie has long aggravated critics, but has pleased horror hounds over the years with its playful attitude and silly approach; taking it seriously is to do it a disservice. Go to Full Review
Stephanie Archer Film Inquiry Mar 19, 2021
Leprechaun is a film that severely requires the viewer to suspend all believability and plausibility. Yet, if you sit back and just go along for the ride, you will find Leprechaun to be more enjoyable than you might expect. Go to Full Review

If the film was either considerably goofier or significantly more horrifying, it might have worked. Go to Full Review

Kylo W Feb 3, 2019 an elf who wants the money back ... a good idea if you want to write a fairy tale about kids, a bad idea if you want to make a horror movie See more
Poe G Jan 19, 2019 This movie is the first horror movie I can ever remember seeing. As a movie that's about a killer leprechaun I'm glad they didn't take it seriously that and the great acting by Warwick Davis this movie is definitely one I'd watch on a Friday night with some popcorn. I'm giving it a three and a half mostly cuz nostalgia. See more

George G Oct 27, 2018 Goofy and corny in all the right ways, Leprechaun is a true underrated classic.
