Film Overview"Leprechaun 2" is a 1994 American dark fantasy comedy scary film and the second installment in the "Leprechaun" series. Directed by Rodman Flender, the movie stars Warwick Davis as the title character. Instead of being a direct extension of the very first movie, "Leprechaun 2" adopts a brand-new story, presenting a brand-new group of characters combating against the mischievous and deadly leprechaun that Warwick Davis represents.
PlotThe movie's plot tosses back to a thousand years back when the Leprechaun attempts to marry a princess to guarantee his lineage. However, he gets tricked when the lady he intends to wed sneezes thrice without being blessed each time-- a loophole through which he loses her. Cut to modern-day (1994) Los Angeles, the Leprechaun get ready to declare his bride-to-be again.
On St. Patrick's Day, the Leprechaun emerges once again to claim his unwilling bride-to-be, Bridget Callum (Shevonne Durkin), who came down from the original princess and shares the specific similarity. Cody Cavanaugh (Charlie Heath), Bridget's partner who operates a dubious horror-themed directed tour with his scam-artist uncle, is the one standing in between Bridget and the Leprechaun.
Main EventsAfter kidnapping Bridget, the Leprechaun locks her in his lair, meaning to make her his bride-to-be. He punishes those who come in between him and his bride with terrible and often lethal tricks. On the other hand, Cody, who has a piece of the Leprechaun's gold, finds that the creature can not hurt him as long as he has it. Nevertheless, the Leprechaun tricks Cody into using up his dream, allowing the animal to assault him once again.
Climax and ConclusionIdentified to conserve Bridget, Cody gets in the Leprechaun's lair. He impales the Leprechaun with a wrought iron bar, which can eliminate a Leprechaun. Believing the animal to be dead, Cody attempts to entrust to Bridget. Unbeknownst to them, the Leprechaun had currently regurgitated the piece of iron. The Leprechaun resumes his attack, however Cody tricks him into swallowing a pot of molten gold, causing him to take off. Cody and Bridget escape from the burrow and leave hand in hand, safe at last.
Reception"Leprechaun 2" has actually made its specific niche cult following, comparable to other horror-comedy films of the era. While it received mixed reviews upon release, the special facility, cheesy storyline, and Warwick Davis's interesting efficiency contributed to its lesser-known cult status. Noted as a motion picture that's so bad it's good, "Leprechaun 2" is frequently fondly reminisced by fans of '90s horror. The film showcases a specific brand of horror-comedy, blending splatter, slapstick, and satire while boasting a delightfully hammy performance by Warwick Davis. It continues to be a midnight motion picture favorite and part of a scary binge-watch tradition around St. Patrick's Day.
