It’s been seven years since the last installment in the Leprechaun franchise, with director Steven Kostanski’s Leprechaun Returns putting a bloody new coat of paint on the saga back in 2018. While we wait for the character to return to the screen, the production team behind the Terrifier series and Stream have made their own fan film tribute to the Leprechaun series.
Fuzz on the Lens Productions have just released 10-minute short Leprechaun Revenge, a reimagined continuation of the original 1993 classic that serves as a direct sequel.
Mark Holton reprises his role as Ozzie in Leprechaun Revenge, with Linden Porco reprising his role as the Leprechaun from Kostanski’s aforementioned Leprechaun Returns.
Maren Altman plays Ozzie’s long-lost niece, who makes a mysterious return into his life.
In Leprechaun Revenge, “After surviving the horrors of a malevolent creature obsessed with his gold, an older and reclusive Ozzie Jones has spent decades trying to suppress the trauma of his encounter with the Leprechaun. Now haunted by hallucinations and living in isolation, his compound is sealed with boarded windows, homemade charms, and arcane relics—his only defense against a nightmare that he’s convinced isn’t fully over.
“Will his defenses be enough when the Leprechaun comes for his revenge?”
Watch the bloody showdown between Ozzie and the Leprechaun below!
Director, writer and producer Michael Leavy said in a statement, “The Leprechaun franchise holds a special place in my heart—it was the first horror film I ever saw, and it instantly made me want to become a filmmaker. As a lifelong fan, I know this series inside and out, and I wanted to create something I know we all miss. This spinoff is pure passion rooted in what we all love about the films —a love letter to the original, paying homage to the franchise’s unique charm and tone, with our own darker, modern twist. So wherever this may lead, I think one thing is clear that we need a new Leprechaun film to fill the giant void in the horror genre.”
