** out of ****

Why couldn't this movie pick up where "Leprechaun" left off? I was confused and disappointed to see this film start off with a completely different leprechaun who just happens to look like the original. Although this film is flawed and not as imaginative and atmospheric as the first, it still remains watchable. It helms a slightly decent plot, has a few genuine "jump" scenes, and features crisp, bright costumes and sets. The problem with the leprechaun series is that it takes the leprechaun to new and uninteresting heights when it should try recapturing the atmosphere and fear the original was able to deliver.
