WWE Studios President Michael Luisi has described the film as 'a little darker, a little more traditional horror than the Warwick Davis ones that people remember'.[3]

Plot[edit]

A young couple, Catherine and Francois, are attempting to escape from a figure who eventually catches and drags Francois to his death. It also grabs hold of Catherine just before she arrives at a monolith in a grassland.

Four American college friends, Sophie, Ben, Jeni, and David are vacationing at an Irish countryside at Sophie's behest. The driver, Ian, lets them go at the monolith seen in the beginning. Sophie, who is a history bachelor, takes note of the monolith's symbol before heading to a local bar with the others, where they meet with a friendly old man, Hamish, who tells them about the history of the village: it was formerly a mining center for gold obtained in a nearby cavern, but when the gold ran out, the population dwindled. The four agree to be taken to a cottage where they can begin hitchhiking to the cavern, though they are wary of Hamish and his grumpy son, Sean.

That night, Jeni investigates a ruckus outside and glimpses a figure sprinting past the window. She wakes the others, who discover that Hamish and Sean had locked them up. A figure suddenly enters the cottage through the fireplace and forcibly takes Jeni's gold earring. After a brief struggle which sees David's leg being bitten by the monster, the four escape the cottage and race to the village hall, where they hide in the cellar. From a mythology book, Sophie learns that the monster is a Tuatha Dé Danann, also known as a leprechaun, who owns the gold that the villagers sought after. Hamish and the villagers refused to return the gold and didn't want to leave the village. In return for the gold, the villagers have to sacrifice at least two humans each year as 'compensation'. The leprechaun lusts after gold, but it can be repelled by a certain symbol, the same one carved into the monolith, which serves as a barrier beyond which the being cannot get out. There was another monolith symbol barrier at the leprechaun's cave; however, when the villagers mined the cave and took the gold, the cave collapsed, causing the leprechaun to escape 15 years ago. Hamish and Sean are joined by their friend Ian outside, where Hamish tells him of his suspicions of his son becoming disillusioned with their sacrifice plot.

The four are confronted by Hamish, who confirms that the villagers sacrifice tourists each year to avoid having to sacrifice themselves, and Sean, who has grown weary of the unjustified sacrifices, eventually lets them go, while Hamish finds Ian impaled on some farm equipment in a shed. He escapes as the creature kills Ian. The four take the offer to escape by an old woman, Mary, who is revealed to be Hamish's accomplice. The four are then tied to trees as offerings for the leprechaun. The monster arrives and rips out Jeni's golden tongue ring. David manages to get the leprechaun away from Jeni, but the beast slashes his torso, also cutting the rope, allowing him to break free and release the other three before he is attacked and killed. The remaining trio head back to the cottage to set a trap to kill the monster, but the leprechaun tricks Sophie and Ben into striking Jeni with their axes, killing her.

Sophie and Ben fetch Hamish's truck but are cornered by the leprechaun inside the village hall. The leprechaun eventually gets hold of Ben and kills him by ripping his spine out. Though cornered by Hamish, who is still intent on sacrificing her, Sophie is saved by Sean, who pushes Hamish into the cellar out of guilt for letting his father and the villagers sacrifice so many people over the years. The leprechaun kills Hamish in the cellar, much to Sean's devastation (Sean is never seen again; presumably the leprechaun killed him too or he escaped). Meanwhile, Sophie boards Hamish' truck but crashes midway while trying to avoid the leprechaun. She resumes her escape on foot and when the leprechaun finds her she distracts it with gold coins, then decapitates it using Francois' knife, which he had left in the prologue. Sophie finally manages to cross the monolith to safety just as 3 leprechauns are revealed running in the tall grass, before continuing her escape.

Reception[edit]

Critical reception for Leprechaun: Origins has been predominantly negative. On Rotten Tomatoes the film has a rating of 0% based on reviews from 7 critics.[7]

Common complaints include clichéd scripting and poor direction.[8][9] Cliff Wheatley of IGN panned the film, writing 'Slasher movies of this ilk come with a certain expectation of quality. But even the cheapest, most shoddy productions can manage some thrills, kills, and laughs with memorable characters and a cohesive plot when skilled filmmakers are at the helm. Leprechaun: Origins, unfortunately, offers none of these things.'[10]We Got This Covered criticized the movie for being overly clichéd, stating 'Honestly, the scariest bit of Lipovski’s vision is how blatantly stolen most scenes feel, be it the 'long grass' scene from Jurassic Park: The Lost World or detailed costume rips from Red Clover, but what else do you expect from an unintelligible cash-in short on reveals, lacking on death scenes, and heavy on infuriating redundancy?'[11]

They’re on cereal boxes of Lucky Charms, they’ve tormented Jennifer Aniston in a horror movie and they’ve been part of Irish folklore for generations. So, we’ve decided to put together a complete guide on the myths and legends of the Irish Leprechaun.

Here’s some of the most common questions people have about the Irish Leprechaun…

What Jobs did Leprechauns have?

Leprechauns were the fairy shoemakers of Ireland and they made shoes from the finest Irish leather that were said to be so comfortable you could walk from Kerry to Donegal.

Did Leprechauns have children?

No, according to legend Leprechauns did not have children and there are no female leprechauns.

They are decedents of the collection of ancient Irish gods known as the Tuatha De Danann, the ancient and mystical tribe of the Irish Goddess Danu.

These gods are deeply associated with the ancient mythology of Ireland and are still associated with our most sacred ancient places.

Are leprechauns a member of the fairy family?

Yes, they are members of the Irish Fairy family.

They are famous for their love of gold, the crafting of the finest shoes and most of all for their mischievous and sometimes tempestuous nature.

Other legends depict the Leprechauns as quiet creatures that like to keep to themselves.

Do Leprechauns Grant Wishes?

Yes, according to Irish Myths and Legends if captured a Leprechaun must grant his capture three wishes. Be very careful what you wish for though. One of a kind defense mac os. If you wished to be as big as an Ox he could turn you into an actually Ox. Be very clear what you wish for, as a Leprechaun will take you literally!

Once your three wishes are granted you must set him free.

Do they have a Pot of Gold at the end of the Rainbow?

Again, this is very true according to Irish folklore. Hence why it’s so difficult to find those pots of Gold. They’re always just out of reach and only a leprechaun can reach the end of a rainbow.

Legend states that Leprechauns have a gold coin for every year they’re alive, so King Brian would have a very lucrative pot of Gold!

How can I catch a Leprechaun?

So, this is a very popular question, why? Because everyone wants those three wishes, the pot of gold and the claim to say they’ve caught the magical green-cloaked fairy.

If you want to catch a leprechaun you’ll need to be extremely cunning. Not many people can outsmart their kind. You’re going to have to find their weakness and believe me they do have it.

Their major weakness is alcohol. I’ve heard they like Guinness but whiskey and Poitin are their tipples of choice. When a Leprechaun is intoxicated they are at their most vulnerable.

Leave some whiskey outside in your garden some evening and you may have the opportunity to catch one. Make sure you tie a string to their ankle.

Don’t expect to be greeted too positively when he wakes up. They’re grumpy, old and badly behaved. They’ll be looking for a way escape straight away.

Who is the King of the Leprechauns?

King Brian is the 5,000 year old King of the leprechauns and was featured in the 1959 Disney film, Darby O’Gill and the Little People. This is a great movie to watch if you’re going to brush up on your knowledge of these fairy creatures.

Do Leprechauns Dance?

Yes, leprechauns love to drink and dance. The Irish Jig is their favourite dance accompanied by traditional Irish music played on the fiddle. They love to dance so much they wear out the soles of their shoes. Some think this is why they went into the profession of shoemaking.

What type of clothes do Leprechauns wear?

They’re famous for wearing green however according to the Book Legends and Stories of Ireland from 1831, they work dark red clothes with a tri-cornered hat with shoes and gold buckles.

What’s the Real Truth behind Leprechauns?

Well, they are just legends and we’ve only heard stories of people that have seen them. No one can actually prove they exist, although a man in Louth claims to be the Last Leprechaun Whisperer.

According to his website, Kevin Woods found the remains of a genuine leprechaun in 1989. His bones still held within his suit. He organises regular leprechaun hunts but has yet to capture any.
