My god it got worse.

Aye, it's time for our yearly torture session. I'm honestly not entirely sure what the hell I was thinking when I suggested we watch all these damn movies, considering the first one in the series sucks balls in the first place.

Well, after watching the last in the series, I was encouraged. By then, it had moved into total silliness territory and I wondered how exactly it had arrived there. So we started back at the second edition and trudged onward.

I'm here to report that it wasn't part 3 that did the series any favors.

Now, there is a bit of the silliness that is to come (by watching the trailer for part 4, where we get the inevitable "So and So...IN SPACE!" edition, I think that's where it jumped officially to Corntown), but there was still an...'effort,' let's call it, to make a scary movie. This time there's a bit of the Wishmaster where everyone gets what they want...AND MORE! He still rhymes all the time (oops), plus when Scott gets the Leprechaun's lime flavored blood in him he starts with the limerick crap too, so it's double the dumb.

Speaking of Scott, holy hell - he is the dopiest motherfucker alive. He walks around everywhere with stars in his eyes, even betting his ENTIRE COLLEGE TUITION on one table in one casino. Yeah, he's supposed to be some hick kid but he comes off as mildly retarded. He and Tammy definitely deserve each other, being dumb as posts and all (she met him like two hours earlier and now she'll never leave his side?), and neither one of these people can act. And how they thought they could pass someone who was at least 50 years old as a fresh faced 18 year old kid, I dunno. Took some big brass ones there.

Once again, the entire premise is still dependent on the Leprechaun being a complete dumbass. If he's so damn worried about his stupid gold, he should stop leaving it unattended so much. Get a bank account, for crying out loud. He even puts it in a safe at one point - why was it not there in the first place? Leprechauns need to move into the 21st century. This is ridiculous.

Seriously, is there a Union for these guys? Do they pay taxes? Every time he gets killed, does he go home and bitch about his bad day at the office? And since when is there anything about Leprechauns being like little annoying vampires?

Still not a lot of actual "gore" to speak of, though one magic trick had some ok red stuff. Another person bites it by exploding a la "Thunder" in Big Trouble in Little China, though she turns into little flakes of sawdust which was confusing.

Only two more of these damn movies to go, but I am not looking forward to next year's. Well, maybe I am - I don't think it can get worse than this travesty. But I wouldn't BET on it! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
