[@leprechaun4gold221]

From the farmhouse to the stars, my journey's been wide, in search of me gold and a bonnie bride. I've danced through the fields and gambled in Vegas, but don't be fooled, for I'm quite contagious. In space, I floated, a cosmic rover, me magical antics, not once sober. I've rapped in da Hood, a rhyme-spitting fiend, me pot of gold, still to be gleaned. But then came Origins, a tale so muddled, a goblin pretender, left me befuddled. They thought they could replace me charm, but this Leprechaun, came from a crate in the farm. So here's to the movies, where I've roamed free, a mischievous spirit, as you can see. I'll take me shillelagh, and tip me hat, for I'm the Leprechaun, and that is that!

[@J-DEVTV]

I love your ranking as it's similar in spots to mine. 8. Leprechaun 5: In the Hood 7. Leprechaun: Origins 6. Leprechaun 6: Back 2 Tha Hood 5. Leprechaun Returns 4. Leprechaun 3. Leprechaun 3 2. Leprechaun 2 1. Leprechaun 4: In Space

[@galaxyvideomax1592]

I’m happy to see Returns getting the top spot here, it’s my favorite Leprechaun movie too! As someone who really liked Ozzie in the first film I love what they do with him here as a ghost, it was really funny and a little sweet too.

[@ImJustMe39]

I love Warwick Davis.My all-time favorite movie with him is Willow,not horror,but a pretty cool flick. I also love this franchise(though I haven't seen Leprechaun Returns). I looked it up on IMDb since the one guy in a clip you showed looked familiar, and lo and behold, it's Ozzie from the first Leprechaun movie. Personally, I would have ranked In the Hood & Back to the Hood higher. And Leprechaun in Space lower. And most definitely, Origins dead last. Returns I don't know since I haven't seen it. Or maybe I would have just moved this first Leprechaun movie up a couple of spots. Keep up the great work.

[@transformersfan3509]

1. Leprechaun 3: My absolute favorite of the series. 2. Leprechaun Returns: A much better film and the true sequel to the original. 3. Leprechaun In the Hood: I actually love this film. 4. Leprechaun: A great original film in my opinion. 5. Leprechaun Back in the Hood: Enjoyable and Fun. 6. Leprechaun 2: Really stupid but watchable. 7. Leprechaun 4 in space: Jason X was better than this. 8. Leprechaun Origins: At least it was a dark film and it was gory, but its not enough from this to be a horrible movie.

"In Space" is far more entertaining than some of the later entries imo. I like #3 more but the hate it deserves is a bit unwarranted. Also, you gotta watch Return of the Living Dead now!

[@samgayman4266]

i think a super fun video idea would be if you bought a few horror movies from the dollar tree and reviewed/ranked them to see if there’s any obscure ones worth the watch

[@callmejacob3234]

Leprechaun in the Hood was actually pretty I enjoyed it mostly because it reminded me of a Neil Breen film.

[@FourTilSunday]

I love the Leprechaun movies. They're silly fun, not meant to be taken too seriously. My ranking from favorite to least favorite: Leprechaun, Leprechaun Returns, Leprechaun 3, Back 2 tha Hood, Leprechaun 4, In the Hood, Leprechaun 2, Origins. I feel like Leprechaun Returns is highly underrated among the fandom due to Warwick Davis not being in it, but I think it's one of the most well done movies in the franchise, and Linden Porco really did a fantastic job. Like you, I also loved his makeup in that one.

[@ArtTheClownEnthusiast]

I can enjoy a low budget film, all i ask is that you try, (like I own all and enjoy most of the Puppetmaster films), and refuse to ever watch the leprechaun films again

[@ivanpaganCHAMP]

This was a wildly controversial list and that’s what I love about your opinions and more so the fact of art, that everyone gets something different and formulates there own emotions, cheers to the group of die hards that get angry from this and cheers kylie

[@slagarcrue85]

The original leprechaun had a little boy character. With one of the best unique one liners in the movie. Little boy loads the four leaf clover into his sling shot. Says fuck you lucky charms and shoots the four leaf clover into the leprechauns mouth and down his throat. Then he falls into the well then he gets set on fire after getting some short of flammable liquid on top of him. Then you hear that finale audio voice over couple of lines from Davis. I think the line is curse this well were my soul must dwell before I get my magic to break this spell. Sadly I gave my three dvd boxset which had the first 4 films to good will recently.

[@JohnFranklinMovieReviewer]

Happy St. Patrick's Day to you too. I have seen this franchise many times except Leprechaun Origin. I saw that one a few times. My ranking is: 8. Leprechaun Origin 7. Leprechaun in the Hood 6. Leprechaun Back 2 Tha Hood 5. Leprechaun 2 4. Leprechaun 1 3. Leprechaun 4 In Space 2. Leprechaun 3 1. Leprechaun Returns

[@HeroesKey]

I feel like I've heard of one of this movie but never bothered to watch it cause it never interested me. And watching this video, I've now learned there wasn't just one movie but a whole franchise. So I appreciate all the info you provided for this cause I knew literally nothing. Also I love the green lighting and happy st. patrick's day!

[@jasonvoorhees310]

Who doesn't love watching the green little shit from time to time. Every St. Patrick's day I turn on the Scy-Fy channel and watch Warrwick Davis at his best. Thank you Mr. Bartarlos for you great make up effects work.

[@jonThe1975]

When Jennifer Aniston refused to resume her role as Tory Redding for leprechaun returns, the production contacted Heather McDonald to replace her by imitating her voice. She played the lead actress' mom

[@doctorstrange4868]

The original Leprechaun will always hold a special place for me because it was the first, and only movie we sneaked into. My cousin and I bought tickets to Home Alone 2, I believe, and we slipped into Leprechaun instead. Honestly, I 14 years old then and I thought the movie was great. Now, it is more about that memory, I know these movies are not good. Ha Ha! Happy St. Patty's Day!

[@kylelawson5715]

I've seen these movies more times than I'd like to admit and your ranking is definitely fair. Leprechaun isn't a quality series, just mostly a fun one. My favorite is probably 3. I love the Vegas setting and Warwick Davis's pun game is at its peak.

[@Vinyan88]

When I was younger, Leprechaun getting thrown out of a window in 3 was the funniest thing ever.

[@HauntedHippie]

!!!

[@slagarcrue85]

Davis was also in willow as willow. then he had a lesser minor roll were he didn’t talk in English because in return of the jedia he played on off the Ewoks named I think it was wicket. I think he was the Ewok that found Carrie fisher after she fell of the speeder bike. Keep a couple of the storm troopers from catching Leia.

[@BluRayAddict1]

Great ranking. My ranking from my favorite to my least favorite is 1. Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood (3/5) 2. Leprechaun 3 (3/5) 3. Leprechaun in the Hood (2.5/5) 4. Leprechaun Returns (2.5/5) 5.

I had no idea they did 8 of these. I like the original, but nope'd out after the second one.

My personal worst to best ranking #7 Leprechaun Returns #6 Leprechaun 2 #5 Leprechaun 4 #4 Leprechaun 3 #3 Leprechaun 1 #2 Leprechaun 6 #5 Leprechaun 5 Leprechaun 5 and 6 have the most character driven stories with first-rate performances and the most satisfying deaths. nothing more nice than watching the leprechaun slaughter those annoying wannabe gangsters.

Happy saint Patrick’s day weekend! I see with your green background that you’ll be safe from any pinches hahaha I ate a bowl of lucky charms for breakfast too I’ve actually never seen any of these movies before but judging by your letterboxd review of each movie, I think I made the right call skipping them lol It’s so funny seeing young Jennifer Aniston in the first movie! I mean everyone’s gotta start somewhere and bonus points for debuting in a horror movie! And Ice-T is pretty much on the same level as busta rhymes in Halloween resurrection haha Thank you again maggot mother for keeping us children fed with another cult meeting! And Please watch return of the living dead soon!

[@jwnj9716]

Leprechaun Returns was a pleasant surprise. It's a dumb franchise, but you can have a good time with friends around. I can't believe Mother's Milk battled a Leprechaun. At least he went up to 11 dealing with superheroes.

[@matthewganong1730]

Hold up. We need to talk about Return of the Living Dead. I recommend you make it a 4th of July thing this year. You’ll get it when you watch it. And I really think you’ll love the film.

[@anthonywheeler2082]

I recently rewatched 1 and 2. Leprechaun 2 is still my fave. The topless fan kill has always stuck with me. What kind of "fan" even is that? It's like nightmare lawnmower blade thing haha. Morty's death was also pretty memorable when the treasure ended up in his guts. Lots of body horror in that one. 2 was also the first movie where the Leprechaun goes to a place and does things. The rest of the series took after that one in my opinion more than the darker look of the first one. 2 looks more like a horror SNL skit that I think is just fun. Need to rewatch 3 and 4 though.

[@HauntedHippie]

if you like 2 I think 3 and 4 are also a treat!

[@KevintheMarvelfan2004]

1. Leprechaun 3 - best 2. Leprechaun - great 3. Leprechaun Returns - great 4. Leprechaun Back 2 tha Hood - great 5. Leprechaun in the hood - great 6. Leprechaun 2 - trash 7. Leprechaun 4 in Space - trash 8. Leprechaun Origins - trash

You deserve a like just for putting yourself through this.

[@kenyonschempp3997]

I was determined last year to watch them all, but gave up after 2. (The one time I gave up on a franchise) so I’m thinking next year I’ll give the franchise a second shot.

[@AlexApproBAT]

I thought I saw all of these, but I seem to only have views on Letterboxd for 1, 2, and Origins (I gave them all positive 2.5 stars). I'm kinda curious about the others, but if I ranked these three so low the rest will probably be even more of a slog. Although the newest one does sound kinda interesting.

[@omen351]

Leprechaun was one of the first lot of horror films I watched when I was like 8. My older sister had a sleep over birthday party, where her and her friends had rented a bunch of horror films. Which included child’s play 1&2, Night of the creeps, leprechaun and maybe return to horror high 🤔. Over the next few days I watched them all. Child’s play 2 was my favourite. Anyways I remember watching leprecahun and having a laugh at the pogo stick scene, but got bored of the movie. I recently rewatched Leprechaun last year, when it was on Netflix here in Australia. Watching it as an adult, I realise how fucking awful it is 😂😂. I did try watching the second one years ago, when it was on late at night on tv, I didn’t make it half way through, let alone trying to watch the entire franchise 😂.

[@madcoolclips2800]

Thanks so much Kylie I was going to watch a few of these this weekend 🍀 #Leprechaun

[@cashthecurator666]

Digging the green background, nice choice! If I’m being honest, I’m not a huge fan of the Leprechaun franchise at all. I love Warwick Davis, but these movies are just shite in my opinion. Jennifer Aniston was good though, which was no surprise. She’s good in pretty much everything.

[@DesiSJ]

If I were someone who bet money I would've lost guessing your ranking 😂😂 I would've had your last 2 but your top 5...I was wrongity wrong wrong wrong 😂

[@HauntedHippie]

nooo what did you think hahaha

[@adamthehorrorfanatic]

Maybe I need to rewatch Leprechaun 4. Its always been my least favorite, or at least tied with Origins, but I haven't watched it since it first came out so it's been a while.

[@BB13131313]

I've got nothing for these.. I've never seen one from beginning to end, but I've seen parts of different ones over the years because they used to always play them on TV, I'm sure they still do.. so these films are still oddly nostalgic for me.. I also remember Jennifer Aniston being embarrassed about the film and used to always say "we don't talk about that one" whenever she was asked about it lol, but that was many years ago so who knows how she feels about it today..

[@creepersteal497]

Anytime I watch the Leprechaun movies I pretend Origins doesn’t exist. Really tempted to just throw away the blu ray of it that I have but idk why but I can’t lol. I can’t even bring myself to sell it cause why would I wanna curse someone with the ability to watch that movie?? So I just hide it behind Returns😂

[@mb-pc3zn]

The first leprechaun is a classic in my eyes and was a pretty good horror film.The rest of the franchise,not so much 😂.The 2018 remake was actually decent and had some great kills.Nobody could argue tho that Warwick Davis did amazing portraying leprechaun 💪

[@bensneb360]

Leprechaun is one of my favorite horror franchises, it’s definitely a guilty pleasure in some cases, but I find it fun in Warwick Davis is really good in the role. My ranking is: 1. Leprechaun 3 2. Leprechaun (1993) 3. Leprechaun 2 4. Leprechaun 4: Lost in Space 5. Leprechaun Returns 6. Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood 7. Leprechaun in the Hood 8. Leprechaun: Origins

Oh you poor dear, eight leprechaun movies. I don’t believe I’ve ever watched any of these films. Lucky me. Since you reviewed them all I may have to try some out in your rantings. Just for the fun of it. They probably have an eight DVD box set for $20. Thanks for watching these films so a lot of people don’t have too. Yes, no deep dive. Bury that idea. 🧐🙂

In my opinion the first Leprechaun might objectively the best movie or one of the earlier movies might be the best but my favorite is probably Leprechaun in the hood I watched this one a lot as kid because it was so bad it's good kind of way it's so damn bad and hilarious and Ice T was funny AF in this movie too 😂😂, also I mainly know Miguel A Nunez as the voodoo guy from the 2002 first live action Scooby Doo movie Lol
