Rebecca L Leprechaun 3 is the third film in the cult horror-comedy series, and this time the wisecracking, murderous leprechaun takes his gold-hunting mayhem to Las Vegas. The setting makes for plenty of campy fun, since Vegas is full of greedy gamblers and shady characters — perfect targets for the leprechaun’s tricks. Like the earlier movies, the tone is over-the-top rather than scary. Warwick Davis once again steals the show as the leprechaun, bringing a mix of menace and silly rhymes that have become the series’ trademark. The special effects are low-budget but creative, and the kills are cartoonish and outrageous, leaning more toward black comedy than straight horror. The plot is thin — more an excuse for a string of gory gags and one-liners — but fans of cheesy ‘90s horror will appreciate its self-awareness and camp value. It’s not a polished film, but if you enjoy “so-bad-it’s-good” movies with plenty of tongue-in-cheek humor, Leprechaun 3 delivers. Verdict- A goofy, trashy horror-comedy best enjoyed with friends who like B-movies. Not for serious horror fans, but entertaining for those who embrace the ridiculous.

This one, yet again, isn’t good but isn’t the worst one in the franchise, no redeeming qualities in my opinion other than he’s in Vegas and he goes to a casino.

I say “probably” because i haven’t even seen any of the others, I just really like this movie lol, it’s a good st patty’s day watch if you’re into old shitty horror movies. Turn your brain off and enjoy it Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/21/25 Full Review SkyRo P "Leprechaun 3" piqued my interest after a friend of mine decided to dive into the series, and I thought it would be fun to follow suit, especially since we share similar tastes in older films. As I mentioned before, I found the original "Leprechaun" to be entertaining despite its low critical and audience ratings. The second installment was a bit of a letdown, and I often confuse it with the third. Now that I’ve rewatched them all, I can say that "Leprechaun 3" takes us to Las Vegas, which is a notable shift in setting. However, this installment felt off-putting to me. The lead character struck me as uncomfortable rather than charismatic. It's not about mocking his appearance; rather, he simply didn’t embody the qualities of a leading man. He seemed more suited for a supporting role, reminiscent of characters from horror films like "The Hills Have Eyes" or "Wrong Turn," rather than a central figure in the "Leprechaun" series. As he gradually transitions into the leprechaun persona, his luck begins to align with the role, but it doesn’t quite save the overall experience. While I don’t believe every actor needs to be conventionally attractive, a leading hero still must possess a certain charm or appeal to sell the role. Unfortunately, his performance was lackluster, and the script felt like a significant step down from the previous films, with cringe-worthy casting choices and uninspired kills. That said, Warwick Davis continues to shine as the titular leprechaun. His iconic portrayal is the saving grace of this movie, elevating it just enough to avoid a complete disaster. His performance is so legendary that it provides a touch of brilliance even in a film that struggles to find its footing. In conclusion, I found "Leprechaun 3" to be the weakest entry so far, and based on what I’ve seen, I can’t expect much improvement as we continue through the series. Nevertheless, the legacy of the first film and the decent elements of the second contribute to the enduring presence of this leprechaun villain in horror history.
