My posse's full of women, computer nerds and thugs.
Much to my dismay, I'm none of the above.

    The only way to save this movie is if you recast Shaquille O'Neal's role with a silverback gorilla.

    ½

    I honestly can't tell whether or not it was supposed to be bad. It's incompetent on a level that frankly feels staged, but it's not crazy enough to make it worth watching regardless.

    The Leprechaun's Game is like an itemized list of zero-budget filmmaking cliches, right down to the camera shaking in some scenes because the filmmakers clearly either couldn't afford or didn't use a tripod. I'm not sure how this got to the point where it was anything other than an embarrassing .mpg on the director's desktop.

    ★★★

    I can see why somebody would hate this. It's a low-budget body-swap horror film that seems to ask the question, "What if you made a Clive Barker movie with 90% less (homo)eroticism?"

    It's smarter than it looks, though. Imagine a zombie movie full of rational, effective people who generally come off like they're interested in survival and/or figuring out what's happening to them. Some real thought and care was put into this movie about, let's be clear, some kind of fungus from Siberia that can impregnate men.
