Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with LEPRECHAUN IN THE HOOD (2000)

March 17 : 7:00 pm 9:00 pm

“[T]he Gaelic gargoyle becomes a blunt-smoking, boot-knocking playa with a couple of grudges to settle… Bloody, broad, and comically brutal, it’s blaxploitation at its best.” – Entertainment Weekly

If it’s St. Patrick’s Day, that means it’s Leprechaun Day at Arkadin! We continue our annual tradition of screening each increasing absurd entry in the silliest slasher series of them all with the most outrageous entry yet—LEPRECHAUN IN THE HOOD. Our favorite tiny Irish terror has been to Vegas, he’s gone to space, but you’ve never seen him like this: rampaging through South Central, making his mark on the hip hop game after a trio of aspiring rappers accidentally steal his magic flute. Warwick Davis chews all the scenery in sight once more as the rhyme-spitting diminutive demon, and Ice-T co-stars as music mogul Mack Daddy O’Nassas. It’s all as absurd, bloody, and unhinged as you’d hope for, a priceless direct-to-video treasure from a bygone era of gleeful bad taste.

Arkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films, as sensitivities vary from person to person. However, we encourage researching titles to determine if a screening may contain content that could be upsetting to you. Please feel free to contact us for guidance on specific films. Information about content can also be found on Common Sense Media, IMDB and DoesTheDogDie.com, as well as through general internet searches.
