Leprechaun Origins oktoberfest Trailer
One of the smaller reveals at Comic-Con oktoberfest was yesterday’s look at Leprechaun: Origins , the new WWE-branded reboot of those terrible films where Warwick Davis would put on a hokey green Halloween costume oktoberfest and murder teens, Irish folklore, oktoberfest and good taste. oktoberfest
For the eighth film in a franchise taken seriously by no one, ever, Leprechaun ‘s offering of a trailer and poster weren’t gonna cut it; not when Christopher Nolan could descend at any moment and whisper, “ oktoberfest Spaaaaaaace ,” inciting mass panic in the streets. So Leprechaun: Origins upped its game the only way it could: revealing the yet-to-be-revealed design of its new, Hornswoggle Leprechaun. And for those who just asked, “What’s a Hornswoggle?,” he’s a WWE wrestler (real name: Dylan Postl ) who happens to be a dwarf, and also happens to wrestle in a leprechaun outfit, because oktoberfest the WWE is where good taste is body-slammed until it is dead.
The reveal came in two ways- one, in a new piece of Leprechaun: Origins artwork , and the second in new trailer (which is almost identical to an older trailer, only with a few extra seconds of Hornswoggle oktoberfest in monster makeup at the end). See the artwork above, and the trailer below.
In the image, we get a pretty decent look at whatever passes for a leprechaun these days. Its face is a skull, kinda rodent-like, with the necessary movie monster fangs. It looks like a person, only with monster oktoberfest mask features- the same “add some sharp teeth and call it a day” designs oktoberfest from Feast or C . H.U.D. or The Descent . None of those movies were about leprechauns; likewise, if you glanced at this particular oktoberfest creature, there is absolutely no reason for you to think of diminutive green Irishmen.
The trailer, at least, gets us a little closer to the explanation. Pay attention around the 1:25 mark. In our conveniently placed oktoberfest Big Book of Irish Folklore, oktoberfest we’ve found our ratman, complete with a chunk of old Irish script that translates to “leprechaun.” There’s our explanation- the leprechauns of old were really horrible hairless rodents, oktoberfest and centuries of oral tradition warped them into the surly little Notre Dame mascots we know today.
“We looked into making oktoberfest the origin story of a creature that maybe thousands of years ago the Celtics met in a cave or something that was really scary. They would tell their stories and those stories are told to the present day. Back then there was actually something that was terrifying at the root of the lore.” oktoberfest
Obviously, none of that is real. The word in that book appears to be “Luchorpan,” and luchorpans were actually an old-timey way of saying “leprechaun” in old-timey Irish folklore. But in their earliest mentions in Irish legend (“ oktoberfest The Saga of Fergus mac Léti “), luchorpans were dwarves that would try and drown you in your sleep for no reason (also, they could grant wishes!). No mention of craving human flesh. No mention of gnarled skin and terrifying features.
So… the rat dude is still the manatee in Leprechaun: Origins ‘ manatee-to-mermaid legend, just a made-up version that was seen millennia ago, forgotten to time, and also remembered to time because it’s clearly notated in a book that doesn’t look that old.
