Leprechaun

from Third Channel Podcast · host Third Channel Podcast

It’s not nice to steal gold coins from a leprechaun. Join PJ and Derek as they find the end of the rainbow in Mark Jones’ low-budget oddity, Leprechaun (1993). In this episode the guys unpack Warwick Davis’ unforgettable performance beneath layers of prosthetics, bringing menace, mischief, and manic glee to one of horror’s strangest villains. Plus, how the film blends grim fairy-tale folklore with campy one-liners, why its tone swings wildly between slapstick and sadistic, and how that chaotic mix somehow became its greatest strength. 📺Join us on Third Channel Patreon to support the show and gain access to bonus content!Follow us @thirdchannelpodcast on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, & YouTube and @thirdchannelpod on Bluesky, Twitter, & Letterboxd.
