Hindi Leprechaun In The Hood

He's been in the country side, he's been downtown, he's been to Las Vegas, he's even been in space, now that evil Leprechaun is in DA HOOD! Three young rap artists are looking for a break. They need money to buy some music equipment so they can go to Las Vegas and enter a contest. They meet up with a local pimp named Mack Daddy who agrees to "hook them up", but later declines. The rappers want to get even with him so one night they break into Mack's place and steal a lot of his jewelry, gold, and even the medallion from an ugly looking statue. Shouldn't have done that! Because without the medallion, the statue transforms into the Leprechaun, who goes on a killing spree looking for his missing gold, once again! And the song says it all, "there's nothing' scarier than a Lep' in the hood!"
When three rappers want to get even with a pimp, they accidentally unleash a leprechaun who goes on a killing rampage in the 'hood.
Leprechaun in the Hood directed by Rob Spera Another weak entry into the series. The script is terrible and unless you are the kind of audience for the type of gangster hip-hop story lines, they you won't think much of the characters. They just become typical stereotypes and become most annoying than anything, although Ice-T does pull off a fair performance. Unfortunately, this is Davis' weakest turn as the Leprechaun, which is supposed to be the driving force behind the film. The end result makes possibly the worst Leprechaun film.
Leprechaun in the Hood starts some years ago as two gold hunters Mack Daddy (Ice-T) & Slug following a map to a sealed room containing a statue of a Leprechaun & lots of gold. Slug removes a gold medallion from around the Leprechaun's neck after which the Leprechaun (Warwick Davis) comes to life & kills Slug with his comb. Mack Daddy discovers that by putting the medallion back the evil Irish Leprechaun is turned back into a statue, Mack Daddy also steal the Leprechaun's magic flute. Jump forward to present day Los Angeles where three young rappers Postmaster P. (Anthony Montgomery), Stray Bulllet (Rashaan Nall) & Butch (Red Grant) are trying to make it 'large' in the world of rap music & want to enter a competition but need money & equipment. Which is where the now successful gangster Mack Daddy comes in, he has the money & connections to help them make it big but tells them to get lost. In revenge Postmaster, Stray & Butch decide to rob Mack's place but end up stealing the magic flute, the gold & in an ensuing struggle accidentally sets the Leprechaun free again. However Mack sees them & goes after them with the intent of regaining his magic flute, the Leprechaun also is on their trail as he also wants his gold & flute back & both will kill to get them... Directed by Rob Spera Leprechaun in the Hood was the fifth film in the Leprechaun series (& the only one I've seen thus far) following Leprechaun 4: In Space (1997) & preceding Leprechaun: Back 2 Tha Hood (2003). I have to admit that I actually rather liked it for what it was, it ain't brilliant but I found myself having fun with it. The script by Doug Hall & John Huffman moves along at a nice pace, thankfully never takes itself too seriously & mixes horror & comedy to good effect in my humble opinion. The three central character's were surprisingly likable, there are lots of quite amusing dialogue although the film features non stop swearing with the term Mother F*cker constantly being used throughout. In fact at times it almost seems like a competition to see how many swear words can be inserted into a single sentence. The leprechaun himself gets plenty of one-liners & wise cracks while constantly talking in rhyme, he makes for a decent villain. I particularly liked a scene in a Church when the rappers were singing & swearing all over the place in front of the congregation! The story was OK & it mixed rap & horror to a reasonable extent which I wouldn't have necessarily expected. There isn't much in the way of blood or gore, some severed body parts in jars, the Leprechaun puts his hand through someones chest & makes a couple of people's stomachs explode & Leprechaun in the Hood is maybe the only film I've seen which features a blood spurting death by plastic comb, stuck into someones throat no less! There are some seriously hot looking babes in this as well, it's just a shame about those awful green computer generated eyes. Technically Leprechaun in the Hood has the look of a made for TV film, the special effects are OK at best, the film's soundtrack is populated by foul mouthed rap music which I didn't like too much & as a whole it's generally quite well made in a low budget horror sort of way. The acting is alright as long as no one tries to do anything serious which luckily isn't very often, Ice-T is alright but despite his top-billing in the credits has doesn't feature too much, apparently Coolio is in here somewhere but if you blink you'll miss him. For what it was I liked Leprechaun in the Hood, I thought it was quite often funny, had a certain charm & personality & has decent character's. It ain't no masterpiece but then I never expected it to be, hard to recommend but you could do a lot worse that's for sure.
