A Lep in the hood really doesn't do no good.

I really don't see all of the fuss with this and the other Leprechaun movies.Sure,it's stupid in some parts,but this is actually a very entertaining horror movie.Well,it's more of a comedy than a horror,but you know what I mean.There is a little bit of gore,especially the part where the leprechaun took out a persons heart,and it was still beeping and pumping blood.That's a goof.The one problem with this movie is that it's full of them.For example,when the leprechaun grabbed a cop's leg,he supposedly tore it off.But in the next shot,his other leg is gone.But to say the least,this is a very entertaining piece of film that fans of the others should enjoy.

When is 'Leprechaun 7' coming out?
