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.

This sequel is so much better than the others, for starters its much darker and the Leprechaun's costume is also much better in this movie. Gone are the stripy socks and bright red pants, instead we have a more 19th century dark, creepy looking Leprechaun. The humour is still there in this film, except that its not cringeworthy like it was in earlier outings and is actually funny. There are very few hokey special effects and the storyline is played out well. They have also brought back the four leaf clover to kill a leprechaun mythology from the first film. Will it win an Oscar? No, but it sure makes up for the last few sequels which completely ignored the fact its supposed to be in the horror genre and instead tried to be too much of a comedy. All the Leprechaun films are fun in their own way, but this one is far less hokey - there's hope for the series yet!

The hairdresser Emily Woodrow (Tangi Miller) finds a fortune in golden coins and she shares the amount with her close friends. However, the owner is the evil Leprechaun (Warwick Davis) that returns from Hell to get his treasure back, killing each member of the greedy group."Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood" is silly, but funny in some moments. The problem is that the pothead and drug-dealer characters are non-likable and extremely ambitious, with the exception of Emily and Lisa; therefore the devilish Leprechaun becomes not as bad as he should be. The scene with the leg of the policeman is hilarious. My vote is four.Title (Brazil): "O Duende Perverso" ("The Wicked Leprechaun")
