Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood is an American horror-comedy film directed by Steven Ayromlooi. It was released direct-to-video by Lions Gate Entertainment on December 30th, 2003 and is the sixth installment in the Leprechaun film series. Warwick Davis reprises his role as the rhyming, wisecracking leprechaun one final time. Joining him are another collaboration of would-be victims which includes, Sheik Mahmud-Bay, Tangi Miller, Laz Alonso, Page Kennedy and Sticky Fingaz.
Several of the Leprechaun's lines in this movie reflect earlier Leprechaun films. The "Damn clovers" line and the "eye for an eye, me dear" were used in the original.
The Leprechaun has a new outfit in this movie than the others giving him a more demonic look.
Emily Woodrow's friends poke fun of her desire to attend college in Kansas, remarking, "She's going somewhere over the rainbow". This is a reference to The Wizard of Oz, a children's novel written by L. Frank Baum in 1900 and popularized by the musical film production in 1939 which included the song Somewhere Over the Rainbow. The reference may also be construed as an off-hand comparison between the leprechaun and the Munchins of Oz.
