Plot synopsis:
Leprechaun 2 (also known as One Wedding and Lots of Funerals) is a 1994 horror film sequel to Leprechaun which centers on a sadistically evil leprechaun (Warwick Davis) hunting for a bride. It's assumed that the film takes place a few years after the events of the first film. chronologically it is the fifth film.This is the final Leprechaun film to be released in theaters. The rest were released direct-to-video.On March 17, 1094 A.D., The Leprechaun is a thousand years old. As March Seventeenth is his birthday, he can choose any woman to be his bride. He picks a young girl of the O'Day family, using her innocent father as his slave. The Leprechaun describes the girl he has chosen to O'Day, but when O'Day sees that the girl is in fact his daughter, he intervenes with "God bless you, my child" therefore denying the Leprechaun his bride, as the creature can marry any girl who sneezes three times, provided no-one says "God bless you." The Leprechaun captures, tortures and tells O'Day that he will marry his descendant in a thousand years time on St Patrick's Day, before he kills O'Day, whose corpse is then discovered by his daughter.In present day Los Angeles, the Leprechaun has found a petulant sixteen-year-old girl named Bridget Callum, a descendant of the O'Day bloodline, who is fighting with her boyfriend, Cody Ingalls. Cody, whose legal guardian is his uncle, Morty, frequently has to break their dates in order to support Morty, an alcoholic scam artist. The Leprechaun steals some whiskey and a gold tooth from a homeless man and a gold ring off the finger of Tim Street, a talent agent, who believes that the little man is some kind of performer. After all of this, he follows Bridget to her house, where a boy named Ian Lyle is attempting to persuade her into letting him in; she refuses with a swift elbow to his ribs.The Leprechaun then creates an illusion that fools Ian into believing that Bridget is asking him to kiss her breasts, while in actuality, they are a pair of lawnmower blades that start up after Ian shoves his face into them, ripping his face to shreds. Shortly afterward, Cody knocks on the door and apologizes, offering flowers, which causes Bridget to sneeze all over his shirt. The third time she sneezes, Cody begins to say "God bless you," but is unable to complete the blessing when the Leprechaun attempts to strangle him with a telephone cord. After a struggle, the Leprechaun grabs Bridget and disappears, losing one of his gold coins, which Cody soon finds.The police soon arrive, find Bridget missing, Ian dead, and a note from Cody at the scene, leading them to get an arrest warrant out for him. Cody returns to Morty's house and tells him what happened; Morty is convinced that he is crazy until the Leprechaun breaks into the house and they barely escape.Morty and Cody then go to a bar, which is filled with little people dressed as leprechauns, celebrating St. Patrick's Day. While there, Cody is given a piece of chocolate in a gold wrapper by one of the bar's patrons (Tony Cox). The Leprechaun appears and Morty challenges him to a drinking contest in honor of his wedding. While the Leprechaun downs whiskey, Morty is actually drinking soda and water. The Leprechaun eventually becomes extremely drunk, so much to the point he can barely speak properly or use his magic. He distracts Morty and Cody by turning on a jukebox with his powers, leading him to bash Morty in the head with a bottle to get away.He goes to a coffee shop, where he sobers up, and takes the time to murder a waiter (Michael McDonald) who was making jokes about his size and speech. Meanwhile, Cody and Morty break into the go-kart racetrack that Ian worked at since the office contains a huge safe on wheels made of wrought iron, the only thing that can harm the Leprechaun. Cody traps the Leprechaun inside, but Morty takes advantage of the opportunity to claim three wishes and locks Cody in a store room. His first is for the Leprechaun's pot of gold, which the creature causes to appear in Morty's stomach, grotesquely stretching it. Morty wishes for the Leprechaun out of the safe so that he can help him, and, for his third wish, asks for the pot of gold out of him. The Leprechaun cuts Morty's stomach open and pulls out the pot, killing Morty. Morty begs for help as he dies, but the Leprechaun laughingly says "love to, friend, but you're all out of wishes."Just then, as Cody breaks out of the store room, a security guard, who has responded to a silent alarm that Morty tripped, enters. The Leprechaun disappears, setting Cody up to take the fall for the brutal murder. Before he can arrest Cody, however, the officer is lured onto the track by the Leprechaun's impersonation of Bridget and is run over twice and killed by the little green man in his own custom go-kart. He attempts to kill Cody for his gold coin, but Cody realizes that as long as he holds it, the Leprechaun cannot harm him, leading him to run to the Leprechaun's lair to attempt rescuing Bridget.In the Leprechaun's tree lair, Cody runs into the skeletal corpse of William O'Day. After a hard and victorious battle, he finds Bridget, who breaks free from her shackles, and they both flee, but get hopelessly lost and separated. Cody then runs back into Bridget, who kisses him and says that it's okay to give her the coin. Cody does so, but finds out that Bridget is actually the Leprechaun, who laughs and says 'you lose' in his normal voice. Before he can claim victory, though, Cody proceeds to impale the Leprechaun with a wrought iron bar, revealing that the coin he handed over was the chocolate coin he received earlier, causing the little man to explode.Bridget and Cody head out of the Leprechaun's lair into the sunlight together. She asks how he knew that it wasn't really her. Cody replies, "He kisses differently than you." as they laugh and walk home.

Review: Don't get me wrong, the original wasn't as scary or as a nightmare as this one; this time as the trailers said, "He's Back!" This time Leprechaun (Warwick Davis) is on the search for his bride after his latest 1000 birthday and wants to breed more leprechauns.
Like the first movie, he wants his gold after it has been stolen or has been retrieved by the main hero of the film.
The makers of these movies know that they're not making Shakespeare, and create agreeable horror comedies that may have some viewers groaning, shaking their heads, and struggling to get through them, and others having a fine old time.
I was confused and disappointed to see this film start off with a completely different leprechaun who just happens to look like the original.
LEPRECHAUN 2, in my opinion, is a very clever and hip horror film you'll love which will leave you feeling good.
The only things about it that scared me, like the first two, were some of the blood and gore and when the leprechaun (Warwick Davis) suddenly appeared or jumped out from somewhere.
According to this sequel's magical lore, once a leprechaun has lived for 1000 years, he can claim any woman as his bride simply by making her sneeze three times—just so long as no-one says 'bless you' afterwards.
When an evil leprechaun (Warwick Davis) fails in his attempt to take a beautiful young woman for his wife, he vows he will return in a thousand years to wed her descendant.
Fast forward a millennium, and sexy babe Bridget (Shevonne Durkin) gets the shock of her life to find that she is the unlucky distant relative of the 'one who got away'.The first Leprechaun movie was a mediocre-at-best, tongue-in-cheek horror made more bearable by the presence of a young and very tasty Jennifer Aniston; having quickly moved onto bigger and better things, Aniston unsurprisingly didn't return for this sequel, but thanks to part 2 actually having something remotely resembling a plot, plus some nastier-than-before violence and a fine replacement babe in the shapely form of sexy Shevonne Durkin, it actually proves to be a tad more fun than the original.As Bridget's boyfriend Cody (Charlie Heath) desperately tries to find a way to stop the diminutive troublemaker from wedding his woman, viewers are treated to plenty of zany humour (Lep getting drunk is priceless), a fair smattering of hokey gore, lots of dwarfs, and even a bit of gratuitous female nudity (although Durkin's topless scene almost certainly utilises a body double).
The only things that kept this movie from getting a flat out 1/10 were that it was entertaining to an extent at times, mainly due to the fact that I suspected it to live up to the first and get way better at any point in the movie, and it had a lot of good, fresh ideas which made the film somewhat tolerable.
This time luck has nothing to do with it, as the Leprechaun goes on a killing spree to find his gold & his bride to be!
Leprechaun 2 is a big disappointment if you saw the first.The killings are weak and the plot is dumb.In the first movie he goes after people because they stole his gold.In this one he wants a bride and doesn't care about his coins;Just anything gold.He lets people get away and it has too many funny parts to be scary,also it really slow.There's no one that famous in it; the only good thing about this movie is it's got Warick Davis.
The problem with the first movie was the fact that it was taking itself too seriously at times, but this sequel does the right thing by embracing the ridiculous nature of the character.On the one hand, the new human characters are more likeable than the ones in the first movie and the title character is always entertaining to watch.The plot on the other hand is a completely different story because it is so confusing and inconsistent that it is a mystery to figure out if this movie is connected to the first one..
I love how warrick davis played the evil little leprechaun yet again , I really love how the lep rhymes and shows more of his magic The only person I didn't care for was the character Bridget , I just really disliked the character, she was very annoying to even watch , the acting was just better bad Davis made up for her though with his evil funny humor , I loved how lep wanted to find himself a bride and would stop at nothing to get his hands on her Only part I couldn't understand was his weakness , I'm not sure why they changed that But other wise another great job by Davis :).
I know a lot of people consider this to be the best of the series, which let's face it doesn't say much, but I personally preferred the original movie by a whisker.
Leprechaun was a good little horror movie.
Leprechaun 2 (1994) Starring: Warwick Davis, Charlie Heath, Shevonne Durkin, Sandy Baron, Clint Howard, Adam Biesk, James Lancaster, Linda Hopkins, Kimmy Robertson, and Tony Cox Directed By: Rodman Flender Review THIS TIME...
The make-up effects are good on the Leprechaun and the acting isn't all that bad in my opinion I'm pretty sure when this was being filmed that the actors were clearly having a good time I mean Warwick Davis had to be having fun with this role if he came back for a sequel.
In this movie, he returns after being ''killed'' in the original and searches for his long lost bride which he finds after a 1000 years and is a direct bloodline next of kin to the one he originally wanted back then.
A devilish Leprechaun (Warwick David) shows up with his eyes on Cody's girlfriend, Bridget (Shevonne Durkin), because she's the descendant of a woman he wanted to make his bride a thousand years earlier.
I've only seen the first four Leprechaun movies and this first sequel is definitely an all-around improvement, likely because the filmmakers had over twice the budget.
Sure, not many people actually die throughout the movie, but still, the ways they did was way better in part 1.And they also toned down the goofy cheesy comedy that was rampart in part 1, giving way for a more sinister leprechaun, though he is still firing off corny - and rhyming - catchy one-liners to torment his prey.The acting in "Leprechaun 2" was also better than what they had in part 1, except Shevonne Durkin (playing Bridget), sad to say.
While Jennifer Aniston's character was likable by the end of the first film, you can't help but to hate Bridget (played by Shevonne Durkin) throughout this one due to a huge lack of talent.
Cody is okay but Charlie Heath's acting can be rather pathetic at some points (ex: "I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE!").Now here's the good news: Warwick Davis (the Leprechaun) appears more frequently than he does in the original and Warwick's acting is even better.
Not only that, he gets drunk at a bar, something that obviously didn't happen in the first "Leprechaun".This is even less scary than the first film, but the gore is still somewhat graphic at times and the kills are more creative.Out of all six movies, I'd say this one is the fourth-best, third-worst.MY RATING: 5.8/10.
this time it is his 1000 birthday, and he is looking for a bride to call his own,, there are no quote stars in this picture like jenniffer annison from last time,, which i think helps the movie this time..
the leprechaun is up to his old tricks in this one, and more evil than ever, 1000 years before he missed the chance at getting his bride,, so now he says he ain't gonna make the same mistake again, all in all i think that this is a very decent picture,, lot's of gore for the horror fans,, so i give it a good rating..
Even, if it means killing a few people.I'm not sure how famous the 'Leprechaun' series is, but the original film has spawned one theatrical sequel and many straight to video sequels.
At least this time around, there ~was~ a story!The make up effects for the Leprechaun were much better also, but Warwick Davis is the only actor in this farce to pony up professional performance.
While it was still not a good film 'Leprechaun 2' for me was a marginal improvement, with a couple of assets done better while containing pretty much all the faults that the first film had.Davis is the best thing about the film.
This time there's some sort of narrative attached, if trivial and slight, but it bears no relation to the first film other than having Warwick Davis' fiendish leprechaun returning to cause havoc.
One thousand years later, the leprechaun is determined to take the beautiful descendant of the woman for his bride.This is your standard 1990s horror sequel, not much different than the direction "Child's Play" or "Children of the Corn" took at this point.
This sequel has a lot of things going on at once, and it works because it keeps focus on the major plot point - Cody and his search to find and save Bridget.
One thing I never liked was that it didn't really continue from the first film, and by all counts had really nothing to do with it other than there is a Leprechaun and his pot of gold.
I think that Leprechaun 2 is a great sequel to the first film.
The plot is very different but very absurd in a good way.I believe like the first film, which made this film entertaining enough was Warwick Davis as the Leprechaun.
The concept of the Leprechaun having a bride was also a nice idea and a great touch to the film.I'd give it a 7.5/10 as I believe it holds up with the original well..
Tedious sequel to yet another worthless horror movie has Warwick Davis returning as the titled character.
It has all the Good stuff found in the Original, Good Scares, Gore Galore, Perfect Acting, and a Very Bad Script that Somehow Makes a Good Plot and well Developed Characters.The Effects and Make-Up for the Leprechaun are Very well Done!
I left the movie on and started doing another things as well, I Don't think there was one scenes that I actually liked in this movie.The acting was really bad in this movie as were the effects and the dull plot!
LEPRECHAUN 2 is a pretty bad film just like the original but whereas the original at least had a good cast going for it, this one here just comes across as boring non-sense that never really adds up to anything.
Of course nothing wrong with that, I wished more horror sequels would do that but in this case it just doesn't work out for the good of the movie.
Again, this is largely due to Warwick Davis, who plays the Leprechaun character so extremely well and fun.I wish I could say that the other characters were halve as good or interesting as he was.
I have masterpiece script about a leprechaun horror flick!!" doesn't know the first thing about film making.
The only good thing out of this is that it gave me some of the biggest belly laughs I've ever had, just because some scenes were so poorly done that it came out hysterically funny.BOTTOM LINE: Don't waste your time or money on this film..
The bar scene with all the little people as leprechauns was a real hoot, especially Tony Cox from Bad Santa.Warwick Davis, known to modern movie goers as Filius Flitwick in the Harry Potter films, played the evil Leprechaun.The barista getting steamed was also funny.Like I said, more comedy than horror.

Bridget's boyfriend, Cody, tries to find her while being chased by the police for a murder he did not commit.This is the second film in the Leprechaun series.
this is not a good movie by any means,but it is better than the first.it's not as slow or boring and there are a few funny moments,including some not bad one liners.the story has nothing to do with the original,other than the fact it has the same Leprechaun who just wants his gold.of course if he has to kill anyone along the way,that's just a bonus.the story is also a bit better than the first.there's a little more going on while the first one didn't merit a sequel,at least the sequel was better.Warwick Davis returns as the psychotic title character,and he seems to be having even more fun in this one.this movie is funny occasionally but it's not scary in any way.i won't say it's good,but it's just not as bad as the first.i guess that counts for something.in this case,it counts for 3*/10.
Warwick Davis is the only reason to watch this, the other actors aren't worthy to share the screen with him.Our evil Leprechaun is celebrating his 1000th birthday and chooses a bride in the sexy, but talentless Shevonne Durkin.
i liked this one the storyline is pretty strong the Leprechaun wants to find a bride to marry and to share his gold with but then his plans went bad when his "wife" knocked him out and tried to run away its a good movie 7/10 stars.
This movie features the leprechaun claiming a girl to be his bride because a slave of his promised a descendant would be his bride or some stupid thing like that.
This movie takes place at Saint Patrick's Day. I guess it's weird to watch this for a Halloween Month but with all the people the leprechaun kills, it's more appropriate here.
There are some really good scenes in this film that I liked a lot.
Basically in medieval times, William O'Day (James Lancaster) is chased by a nasty Leprechaun (Warwick Davis), after he attempted to steal his pot of gold, he locks the young man in a collar and threatens to kill him if he tries to escape.
Apart from Davis, the rest of the actors are naff and given dreadful dialogue, this time the story is a little less about the gold, it is about the creature going on a killing spree while finding himself a bride, hence why it is sometimes referred to as One Wedding and Lots of Funerals, as it came out the same year as Four Weddings and a Funeral, you can laugh mostly at how bad it is, there is slight fun to be had, but it is another lacklustre horror comedy.
The original 'Leprechaun' movie might had a lot of flaws; but the film had a few things going for it; that this sequel directed by Rodman Flender is lacking.
The sequel also abandoned any continuous storylines from the first movie, instead, focusing on a really disturbing angle, in which, the sadistically evil leprechaun (Warwick Davis) tries to force a nuptial on a woman, Bridget Callum (Shevonne Durkin) in order to consummate; while her off & on, boyfriend, Cody Ingalls (Charlie Heath) tries to prevent it.
The reason why, is because the leprechaun was able to kill, another character holding a pot of gold, later in this same film.
Nevertheless, the deaths were a lot better than the first film, even if some of them, lack the gory special effects like the lawnmower scene.
Overall: This is my least favorite movie of the film series, besides the 2014's reboot 'Leprechaun: Origin'.
But Yes, he came back!!Like the first film this one starts with a flash back (to 1094 AD) sequence to set the scene, in this movie the Leprechaun has turned 1000 years old and is looking for a wife.
What the film than makes good is Warwick Davis.
It was all so fake, it was like watching to a film who made a joke of the original Leprechaun film.I give this film a 5/10 Warwick was great and saved this movie from a disaster.
Warwick Davis is creepy as the evil leprechaun (though the make-up on his face looks like Play-Doh), but some of the other performances are so wooden that I wouldn't be surprised if Flender wanted the acting to be bad as part of the "B" movie tradition.
(SPOILER)This movie was OK but the first movie is so much better and i am so happy that the cool Warwick Davis from the first movie came back to play the evil Leprechaun.The acting in this movie is mostly bad but this movie is a b movie so what would u suspect.And there are some OK gore scenes in this movie like when The evil Leprechaun rips out a old mans gold tooth and when the Leprechaun tricks a man and he gets a pot of gold put in his belly.Over all this movie was OK/good and my rating is 4 and a half out of ten..
And a darn good one I must say myself.Leprechaun(Warwick Davis)is 1000 years old.
It's St. Patrick's Day & the evil little Leprechaun shows up to claim a new bride, namely Cody's hot girlfriend Bridget (Shevonne Durkin) & kills one of her friends, a guy named Ian (Adam Biesk), in the process.
The Leprechaun puts the wedding plans on hold as he ventures into Hollywood to find Cody & reclaim his gold using his sinister magic powers along the way on anyone who tries to stop him...The first of 5 (so far) sequels to the '93 comedy horror film Leprechaun this was directed by Rodman Flender & was nowhere near as good as the original.
