For a lot of monsters that have giant grins, It seems to me that their face is just shaped that way, and they cant really stop smiling. The fact that you can see the leprechaun NOT smiling in the convenient store implies that he's genuinely gleeful while drowning the dude in lucky charms, making this all the most terrifying

I don't really like horror movies, because they make you get a feel for the characters and a lot of long breaks between actual scary scenes. Short horror films like this one on the other hand just cut right to the chase with a little bit of context.

@DarkenedX08 23 күн бұрын

@@RandomGamer-The long breaks add tension, which make the actual scares scarier.

@dernerdderkluge2206 Жыл бұрын

My theory is that the leprechaun isn‘t actually evil. He only appears when someone wastes food or steals. You see the cashier took the cereal without paying for them (maybe he‘s the shop owner but let‘s just say he isn’t) and threw the cereal from the box to the dirty floor which means that he wasted food just for a toy. There are tons of poor starving people searching for food. The leprechaun probably gave him nightmares just to teach him a lesson. Edit: Or maybe the guy ate the whole cereal before getting the toys out of the box which made him get a sugar rush

@kelvingoh8405 Жыл бұрын

The moral of this animation, is there's no reward for cheaters who never play fair. The cashier had been wasting cereal just to collect the 3 figurines. If he had really finished them before collecting, maybe the leprechaun will grant a nice wish.
