Critic Reviews

  • Tim Brayton, Antagony & Ecstasy

    It's not a very good film in any way, but it manages to be average, and that alone makes it a franchise standout.

  • Michael Dequina, TheMovieReport.com

    Such a title tells you all you need to know about the story.

  • Stefan Birgir Stefansson, sbs.is

    yeah, that's what the hood needs, a leprechaun and coolio

  • Gregory Weinkauf, New Times

    Coolio's finest moment.

  • Luke Y. Thompson, New Times

    Fast forward through most of the movie, and check out the Leprechaun's rap video at the end. That alone is worth the price, and merits a three star review.

    This is hilarious; more of a spoof than an actual horror movie. The film is one half "Friday" and one half Leprechaun. The "getting out of the hood" story could actually stand on its own and be a decent little flick, but throw in the Leprechaun and you instantly… More

    Another enjoyable installment. Mainly because it takes a very cliche story and shoves the Leprechaun right in the middle. We have a struggling rap group that fail often as they are trying to send out a positive message. In a desperate attempt they decide to rip off a local record… More

    The Leprechaun series continues with the bad little dude (Warwick Davis) causing some trouble for two boys in the hood. There's some funny rapping, and a run-in with a gang lord (Ice-T) named Mack Daddy. Actually, it's one of the more enjoyable Leprechaun films!

  • Joey T


    Leprechaun in the Hood is probably the worst movie I have seen in a long time. Not only does it fail to scare to an unsettling degree, thanks mostly to the idiotic title character, but the humor is ridiculous, the script is god awful, and the performances are abysmal. This is… More
