S2E5 - Leprechaun (1993)

It's a hopelessly, horrible, overplayed and overused stereotype and on paper most people should hate it...but it's also enjoyable in the worst way possible. It's Leprechaun. While the year of 1993 would see the rise of such icons as Jurassic Park and Mrs. Doubtfire later in the year, it really started off with a bang when this was released. It began as a kid-friendly film inspired by a Lucky Charms commercial but became a multi-sequel black comedy b-horror franchise. It's exactly what you expect yet somehow it gets better and worse than that simultaneously. Just watch it and you'll see what we mean.
