Leprechaun: Origins (2014)
Well it is a movie. It is not a Leprechaun Movie.
This movie was falsely billed as part of the wonderful Leprechaun series, formerly starring Warwick Davis, you know those delightful low budget horror comedies with tales of murder, marijuana and mayhem. This movie has literally nothing to do with those movies.
Leprechaun Origins, is basically a low budget remake of predator but set in Ireland. The leprechaun is a toothy little goblin like thing, who can see in predator night vision which is used constantly as if it is the coolest special affect ever. The Leprechaun does not crack one pun or make one limerick when killing people as it it is not humanoid and cannot or does not talk. It runs around biting ankles and chasing generic young hot chicks and their boyfriends in cabins, out of cabins, in woods surrounding cabins, in grassy fields around cabins, back into the cabins, in basements of cabins, back outside the cabin, around the woods in back of the cabin. There is a lot of the Leprechaun pulling people into things as the person holds on and people try to pull him back. I think because it is cheap and you just can show someone with his lower half of his body going into a door and him screaming.
Yes, here is lots of yelling, inaccurate gunshots at the "leprechaun" and darkness to obscure the cheapness of the actual leprechaun. No 4 leaf clovers, magic flutes or any other anti-leprechaun devices you might imagine would come up as necessary to battle a leprechaun. The leprechaun does not make any funny jokes, use any hilarious methods of execution, or horde a pot of gold.
This is basically the movie you would make if you had $50,000 a weird little creature puppet and a cabin to film in. Vince McMahon and his WWE films really ruined a great horror franchise with this abortion. Makes the new direct to video Hellraisers seem like the Godfather.
Dead End Road (2004)
An abomination beyond description
IF you love movies about fruity dudes who prance around with a top hats and canes while spouting off random line of poetry while stabbing their victims then this is the movie for you!!
If you like movies where it looks like the whole thing was shot with a camcorder, and when people get disemboweled their internal organs are made out of baked ziti an marinara sauce this movie is even more for you!!
And if you simply love movies where the acting and dialogue sucks so much that it makes you feel dead inside, then for God's sake run to the video store right now and buy this movie right now!!! Hurry go before it sells out!
