The fact that this movie had 5 that came before it should tell you that all these films are a piece of cinematic art. I found all of the dialogue enlightening and deep. The way the director told the story was truly delightful. I suggest every person watch this film.

Warwick Davis goes back to the LA "Hood" and it's about what you'd expect. As with the previous films, the production value is below average, the story and characters are underdeveloped, and most of the picture relies on Davis' evil grin and diminutive figure wreaking havoc to carry he film. But watching the creepy little leprechaun take out gang members, racist cops, and pretty much anyone who gets in his way actually goes a long way. "Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood" was the sixth and final appearance by Davis and the leprechaun. I'm not sure the series was going to be able to sustain itself much longer, but I will have to admit that Davis inserting himself in a seemingly unconnected genre is pretty darn entertaining, much the same way he did when he went into space (essentially becoming the xenomorph from "Alien"). Who knows, maybe the series could have gone on to further installments by taking the leprechaun into other seemingly unrelated genres (Romantic comedy? Buddy cop film? Post apocalyptic? etc.). But if they insist on another urban drama for a seventh installment, how about placing the leprechaun into a movie where he's the newest teacher at a tough inner city high school? Sadly, this was the last entry in the Leprechaun series to feature Warwick Davis as the Leprechaun before WWE decided to reboot the series with an ill-conceived notion that trying to make a serious scary leprechaun film was a good idea.

Well, I'm going to say that this was the worst movie I've seen for Direct To Video Month. I skipped the previous one where he went to the hood first, but I don't care in the slightest. This movie features people in the ghetto finding the leprechaun's gold and he horribly kills them one by one. What makes this movie so stupid is that nothing in it makes any sense. We get a lot of scenes in the beginning that just focus on the human characters and it's all pointless. It's said that the leprechaun's weaknesses are his gold and four leaf clovers. They do in fact use a four leaf clover against him and nothing happens.Well, he gets shot by them but the bullets float out of his body like little yellow orbs. What? At one scene near the end, the leprechaun's gold is thrown into a furnace which should kill him, but for some reason it doesn't? We see the leprechaun melt and then he's back to normal. His gold should have been destroyed, but it's okay too. The leprechaun's chest of gold has this new ability. Whenever it's emptied, it magically refills. Why than, is the leprechaun afraid when people throw the gold coins out? It can just replenish them.I couldn't understand anything in this dumb movie. The leprechaun gives off more gory deaths including a police officer whose leg is ripped off and he doesn't even notice it at first. He also literally rips a girl's upper jaw off. Nice, huh? I admit it did kind of make me laugh with how stupid it was, particularly with how the leprechaun was shot over and over and never died. There's this psychic who tries fighting the leprechaun even though she knows she can't. I understood nothing and didn't want to. *

Hairdresser from tha hood Emily Woodrow (Tangi Miller) and her ghetto pals discover a chest full of gold coins and, ignoring a warning from a psychic woman to deny their newfound wealth, find themselves threatened by a malevolent leprechaun.What has made the Leprechaun sequels bearable thus far is their blatant silliness and camp characters, with the focus on twisted humour rather than genuine horror. Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood plays everything a little too straight for its own good, with not nearly enough in the way of knowingly dumb nonsense: the death scenes are forgettable, and with some of the least likable protagonists of the whole franchise (drug smoking, gun toting thugs with few redeeming qualities), Back 2 tha Hood proves to be quite the painful experience.The funniest scene in the whole sorry mess is when Leprechaun (Warwick Davis, returning for the paycheck) smokes a bong, but we already saw the little guy get stoned in the previous film (which handled the whole 'G' thang with a lot more fun).
