**_A malevolent Leprechaun is on the loose_** In the town of Keening in eastern USA, a teenager (Courtney Halverson) inadvertently resurrects a creature linked to her Irish heritage while out hunting with her grandad (William Devane). They attempt to convince her skeptical father, who happens to be the sheriff (Billy Zane), as they try to figure out how to stop the murderous lil’ devil. "Red Clover" (2012) was originally titled “Leprechaun’s Revenge,” but it has nothing to do with the series featuring Warwick Davis. The creature here is uglier, humorless and more malevolent, ripping faces off, disemboweling victims and cutting a person in half. The scriptwriter wrote “Headless Horseman” and the contemporaneous “American Horror House,” as well as directed “Sharknado” the next year. This is cut from the same TV-budget cloth. Redhead Courtney Halverson is decent as the teen protagonist with her unique look, but she’s almost anorexic looking. They needed someone who is able to keep the viewer’s attention in a flick of this ilk, like Cindy Busby in “Behemoth” or Danielle C. Ryan from “Snowbeast,” both of which came out a year earlier. Erin Karpluk from “Wyvern” is another good example while Joelle Westwood in “The Hunting” is a more recent one. Yet the green-hued cinematography is welcome and I liked how the actors took the material seriously with an occasional stab at droll humor. The father’s explanation for the missing mother, however, is ridiculous and leaves a bad taste, along with the ending in general. The flick runs 1 hour, 28 minutes, and was shot in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. GRADE: C
