Flashback Lunch: Jennifer Aniston Vs. The Leprechaun

Jennifer Aniston has been so glamorous for so long that it’s hard to remember she was once a big-haired wanna-be hopping from failed sitcom (Ferris Bueller) to failed variety show (The Edge). With all due to respect to the TV movie Camp Cucamonga, her lowest point—even lower than that Herman’s Head guest spot—was starring in Leprechaun, a low-budget horror film featuring Warwick Davis as the titular beastie, murderously searching for his gold coins. Aniston spends most of the movie in tight shorts, screaming and running from a costumed dwarf in a wheelchair. The movie was a surprise success, with Warwick heading everywhere from outer space to “the hood” in its five sequels. Now that’s she’s a star, they’ve slapped her face on the DVD box. Bet she’s proud.

Check out the film’s riveting climax after the jump.
