S17 Ep892: Leprechaun: Back 2 Tha' Hood (2003)

“We’re going back to the Hood with a significantly smaller budget!” - Andrew 

On this week’s episode, we’re closing out the 2026 Halloween Spooktacular by having our good buds, James A. Janisse and Chelsea Rebecca from Dead Meat, back on to chat about the next chapter in the Leprechaun saga, Leprechaun: Back 2 Tha’ Hood! 

Why does the movie wait a full 30 minutes to really get the Leprechaun action going? Why are they bothering with this storybook device at the start? Is the cold open actually the end of a better Leprechaun movie? Is Laz Alonso the third most recognizable person to star in a Leprechaun film? And is this movie better or worse than the Leprechaun’s first adventure in the Hood? PLUS: You can check out Fresh Meat now, streaming exclusively on Pijama! Click through here to rent it!

Leprechaun: Back 2 Tha’ Hood stars Tangi Miller, Laz Alonso, Page Kennedy, Sherrie Jackson, Donzaleigh Abernathy, Shiek Mahmud-Bey, Stikcy Fingaz, Keesha Sharp, Sonya Eddy, and Warwick Davis as the Leprechuan; directed by Steven Ayromlooi.
