Lionsgate is offering up today’s first Halloween treat: news that Leprechaun Returns will be arriving on Digital and On Demand December 11, 2018, Bloody Disgusting can exclusively report.
The devious and deadly wisecracking Leprechaun that we all know (and love to hate) returns to reclaim his pot of gold from a sorority house property…all while gleefully going on a Leprechaun-style killing spree.
Bloody also has the exclusive poster debut that’s perfection. Not only does it look Mondo-esque and collectible, but it harkens back to the finale in the original 1993 film where the title character had a four-leaf clover shot down his throat and falls down a well. It looks like this is a direct sequel, much like this month’s Halloween.
Furthermore, while the Leprechaun is now played by Linden Porco (TV’s “Channel Zero,” Cult of Chucky), Leprechaun Returns co-stars Mark Holton, who returns to the series for the first time since the original 1993 film! Boom!
The Void‘s Steven Kostanski directs the film:
“The deadly, wisecracking Leprechaun is back in all his gory glory. When the sorority sisters of the Alpha Upsilon house decide to go green and use an old well as their water source, they unwittingly awaken a pint-sized, green-clad monster. The Leprechaun wants a pot of gold buried near the sorority house, but first, he must recover his powers with a killing spree—and only the girls of AU can stop him.“
The release includes two never-before-seen special features.
