| The Leprechaun (Warwick Davis) is back and he's about to open a demented can of whoop ass in the hood in the frightful thriller, LEPRECHAUN: BACK 2 THA HOOD, from Lions Gate Home Entertainment. |
The press kit for Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood was a modest affair. It was
included in a generic press kit folder from Lions Gate Home Entertainment that included
a color slide and a fact sheet for each of a dozen different movies, plus sell-thru sheets
with brief descriptions of numerous other releases. The Lep 6 picture is
displayed at left with Lions Gate's recommended caption, and the fact sheet
information is reproduced below.
LEPRECHAUN: BACK 2 THA HOOD
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
He's back, he's mean...he's high? Again? The Leprechaun is back
in the hood, all blazed up and seeking revenge! When a group of friends discovers
his treasure, they soon find out they've unleashed a can of demented whoop ass! With their
stack of riches, the group of hoodlums goes from poor to ghetto-fabulous overnight,
spending their newfound loot on pimped-out cars and hair extensions. One by one the
friends stand up to the weed-smoking, knife-wielding, car-stealing Leprechaun who
will stop at nothing to get his treasure back. Evil has a whole new rap and the
kids from the hood had better watch their backs!
