Seen In: Leprechaun 1

Location: Run down shack in North Dakota

Angus is a surly little devil. He relies on treachery and will pretend to be a cat or a little child in order to reel his victims in. Gold is very important to him and he is even willing to cut open a retarded fat dude’s stomach in order to retrieve his loot. Angus has been spotted using tricycles and mini-truck looking go-carts when transportation is necessary.

Jennifer Aniston, looking especially cute in an early 90's sort of way, is his main object of scorn. In addition to Mrs. Brad Pitt, Angus chases down a retarded fat dude, a MacCaulkin look alike, and some prototypical early 90's stud.

Special Gold Powers: As far as magic goes, Angus isn’t much of magician. He just wants his damn gold!

Achilles’ Heel: Those damn 4 leaf clovers. Unfortunately for Angus, 4 leaf clovers grow under one tree in North Dakota. He also seems to have an odd shoe fetish that hampered him in his quest to regain his gold.

Seen In: Leprechaun 2

Location: Somewhere in Los Angeles, possibly Griffith Park or the Hollywood Hills

All Finbar wants to do is marry his slave’s mustached daughter. His slave fucks up it and Finbar puts a curse on him. Somehow, Finbar’s tree-home gets relocated from Ireland to Los Angeles and finds the relative of his slave that he’s destined to marry. Surprisingly, she looks just like his slave’s daughter and still sports a mustache. As in the previous Leprechaun movie, somehow he loses one of his gold pieces and must try to kill whoever has it while trying to keep his future wife in check. Finbar has been known to tear off a dude’s finger just to get a precious gold ring.

Special Gold Powers: Finbar doesn’t really gain any magic from his gold, but the bearer of one of his gold coins does. You see, Finbar can’t harm the person holding one of his coins. This comes in handy to everyone but him.

Achilles’ Heel: Wrought Iron. It’s such a pity that he can be killed by wrought iron, considering he has been relocated to Los Angeles and pretty much everyone has wrought iron bars on their windows. Death can come at any time to Finbar.

Seen In: Leprechaun 3

Location: Las Vegas

Like his cousins, Feidhlim has lost one his precious gold coins. This time, he needs to find it in makeshift casino in Sin City. Unlike his predecessors, he must take on another leprechaun in this movie that doesn’t look like him or his cousins. He doesn’t seem to have the sense for his gold like the others, as he is always a step behind, blaming people who no longer possess the gold.

Special Gold Powers: Similar to his cousin Finbar, Feidhlim doesn’t derive any powers from his gold, but the bearers do. Anyone holding his gold can make a wish and it will come true. We wish we would have had one of the gold pieces to wish this movie away, but we weren’t that lucky.

Achilles’ Heel: As much as Feidhlim loves his gold, it can also be his downfall. Destroy the gold and you destroy him.

Seen In: Leprechaun 4

Location: Crappy CGI Version of Space

We can neither confirm nor deny that Killian is related to the Leprechaun’s we have met previously. He doesn’t seem to have the same desire to protect his gold as his predecessors had. Killian also doesn’t seem as interested in obtaining more gold, though he probably wouldn’t mind it either.

Killian also seems to be a more refined leprechaun almost to the point of snobbery. In his space travels, it seems very possible that he read the works of Shakespeare and Machiavelli. He knows that through ultimate power that he may also accumulate ultimate wealth. Killian isn’t going to diddle around with ripping off people’s fingers for gold.

Special Gold Powers: Unlike his cousins, Killian Skywalker isn’t that concerned about his gold. All he wants is his little princess slave back so he can rule the universe. Killian is all about the pussy and power.

Achilles’ Heel: From what we observed, Killian doesn’t have any noticeable weaknesses. Sure, his quest for power might be considered a downfall, but that would be reading way too much into a movie with the sub par quality of the Leprechaun in Space. He didn’t even really die in an original way. Think Alien and you’ll figure out how he died.

Seen In: Leprechaun 5 - In tha' Hood

Location: A “hood” in L.A

Liam is a leprechaun that somehow finds himself in the hood. You aren’t going to find too many Irish folks hanging out in the hood, let alone a hideous looking leprechaun. At least he has his spirited limericks to help him fit in because we know how much people in the hood enjoy a good rhyme. He even tries to ingratiate himself by soaking up the hood culture. When he is offered a joint, he unquestioningly partakes in the reefer madness. He even busts a rhyme when Ice-T offers him a joint. You can’t beat a rhyme like “A friend with weed is a friend indeed.” In the long run, the hood has gripped him so much that he even decides to take try his hand at being an rapper, albeit with rather poor results. There are two memorable scenes that take Liam to a place we though we’d never find him. First, he is seduced by a cross-dresser (he kills the She-male but we’re puzzled as to why he followed Shim into Sher room,). Secondly, Liam is literally bitched into a room by a blind ninety-three year old black woman, who proceeds to feed him potato soup, and poke out his eye with a fork. It was done better in Young Frankenstein, but for a Leprechaun movie, this shit is masterful.

Special Gold Powers: Before Ice-T came and stole it from him, Liam had a gold flute that made bad rap music actually sound like something other than crap. It’s not certain how this worked for albums, but for live performances, it worked like a charm. While Liam hasn’t really displayed a penchant for being a rap mogul, he still really wants his gold flute back. It’s too bad that by the time he gets his flute back that he doesn’t use it during his own rap sequence.

Achilles’ Heel: The Achilles’ heel in this movie was a little confusing. If you put a special gold necklace around his neck, he will turn into a statue. He also seems to have a problem with clover laced weed. None of this matters though, because in the end, Liam proves to be a stronger foe than his predecessors.

Seen In: Leprechaun 6 - Back 2 tha' Hood

Location: A different hood than the one Liam was hanging out in

Rory must be very closely related to Angus (seen in the original Leprechaun) because he seems to have some of the same characteristics. Rory is much tougher than Angus though, and dresses more like The Penguin than any of the previous leprechauns. Unlike Angus, Rory puts up with having several caps busted in his ass and being dragged by a ’64 Impala. Rory gets the shit beat out of him on a regular basis. If it wouldn’t have been a lame ass joke, I would have named him Timex for his ability to take a licken’ and come back for more.

Rory also seems a little more ruthless and sinister than Angus. His penchant for killing can only be matched by his cousin, Killian Skywalker. Unlike Killian and more similar to Angus, he just wants his gold back. It’s not certain if he would have stopped his killing streak if he would have gotten back, but it certainly would have helped.

He also seems to really enjoy his weed, even more than Liam (OG Leprechaun Hood Rat). Rory gets stoned out of his mind while taking several manly rips on a nice glass bong that he later uses as an instrument in his killing spree.

Special Gold Powers: Rory doesn’t really rely on special powers outside of calling a rainbow to locate his gold. He has some magic and will use it when necessary, especially while facing off with a crazy tarot card reader that resembles “Miss Cleo” after her stomach stapling.

Achilles’ Heel: Hollow tipped bullets with a special shamrock surprise. Strangely enough, the guy who has the hollow-tipped bullets also sells weed that for whatever reason is laced with clovers. I guess we have a new definition for shamrock shake.
