User Reviews

My favorite of the series.

Of all the "Leprechaun" films, I found this one the funniest. You've got to love his little sayings and remarks. I found the plot entertaining from start to finish, with swell acting and directing, not to mention the comedy! If you want to pick a funny horror flick, rent "Leprechaun 3", you won't be disappointed, unless you're expecting real horror, of course.
