Leprechaun in the Hood (2000)

IRISH RAPPER
Here we go again...not only is this fifth entry in the LEPRECHAUN series unimaginative and repetitive, 95% of the dialogue contains profanity, profanity and more profanity. Shows that writers sometimes can't come up with legitimate dialogue and think that everyone in the world likes to use the F word in every sentence.
Aside from that though, the leprechaun franchise is worn out. The little leprechaun is always after his gold and the people who steal it are usually numbnuts or just simply stupid. The rap "music" in this film is bland and boring; the effects dimestore quality and hopefully even though there IS still another hood movie out, we won't be subjected to any more. Enough!!!

Not as good as other lep movies
I am a fan of the Leprechaun series. I think the little guy is both scary and funny. Some of the movies are good, some are not so good. First of all, your common sense has to go out for a smoke while watching these films. I enjoyed 'In Space' and 'Back to the Hood'. But this one 'In the Hood' just isn't as good.

Sure it has it's moments. The film starts out promising enough with Ice T dressed like Rolo from Sanford and Son and sporting a Hendrix afro, but not even Mack Daddy can save this film.

The stereotyping is deliberate and hysterical. Who can't laugh when Lep says "Steal me gold youlittle hoods, ye got more balls than Tiger Woods!" Other moments of true comedy are when the blind grandmother is feeding Lep and accidently pulls his eye out with a fork, and the 'Church Rap'. The lyrics are dismal to say the least. "Jesus loves me this I know, if He don't I'll find a hoe." Brilliant.

Leprechaun has a lot of powers in this movie., He can make your gun heat up so that you drop it, he can make your insides explode, he can make you turn your own gun on yourself, and he does a little 'Invasion if the Body Snatchers' too. He gets his small band of "Fly Lep cootchie girls' to do his bidding.

The plot (yes there is one) is as asinine as they come. Not only does Lep have a pot o' gold, he has a magic flute. No matter how bad your music is, just blow the flute and everyone will think it's the greatest music they've ever heard. It's every rapper's and garage band's dream come true. Three young rappers with a positive message go hard core and use the flute to go to the top. However, only one survives. He does this by dressing up like a woman. Uh, you'll have to see this part yourself.

As much as I love lep though, there's one thing that he must never, ever do again. I like to see the little guy kill and mame, but Lord, don't let him sing again.
