Anyone with fond memories of the campy original (and that probably doesn't include Jennifer Aniston, who made her screen debut in it), should steer clear of this edition, whose title character has no devilish charm at all.

Alternate Ending

Tired, airless, inexcusably ugly.

In the end, what we have is a mediocre movie that nobody would care about if it didn't adopt the name of a semi-popular horror franchise and smack a pro wrestler's name onto the top of the poster.

Rated: 2.5/5

Leprechaun is the worst kind of horror movie. It's just so generic and bland that it's not worth a second of your time.

I'm not going to pretend the original movies were classics, but they definitely won't lull you to sleep like "Origins."

Davis's performance, his sense of theatricality, and his villainous make-up are deeply missed.

Leprechaun: Origins deceives. Rather than being silly like its predecessors, Origins would prefer to turn to being a generic monster flick with next to nothing in congruence with the first films. The gore is good, but a startling lack of creativity, especially when contrasted against the last films, sets a new low bar for our (once was) green friend.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

Pretty annoying. Just another dumb adult group getting into trouble. You hardly see anything. Nothing happens. Watched for an hour and gave up.

The monster isn't a leprechaun, they're escaping from goblins.

It is underrated, it is way better than the Child's Play remake.
