What happens

Leprechaun: Origins is a 2014 horror film directed by Zach Lipovsky, written by Harris Wilkinson and starring Dylan Postl (better known by his wrestling ring name Hornswoggle), with Melissa Roxburgh, Garry Chalk, and Brendan Fletcher co-starring in the film. It is a reboot of Leprechaun (1993) and the seventh installment in the Leprechaun franchise. WWE Studios President Michael Luisi has described the film as "a little darker, a little more traditional horror than the Warwick Davis ones that people remember". It is an international co-production between Canada and the United States. The film was released to select theaters on August 22, 2014, followed by VOD on 26 August and a DVD/Blu-ray release on September 30. The film was panned by critics and fans upon release.
