Essential Scares

40. Leprechaun (1993)


Listen Later

Centering a month around St. Patrick's Day had to include Leprechaun (1993)!  Warwick Davis absolutely steals the spotlight every single time he is on the screen, and unfortunately the other characters are all awful.  We take a good amount of time to talk about all the things we hate about this film, but none of us truly hate the film.  How does this movie flirt with being a racist stereotype of Irish Mythology yet not end up offensive?  How did Rachel Green end up in New York City? Most importantly though, is it essential?
