The unlikely slasher villain's journey through all six films has been traced, from his roots in the first Leprechaun movie to his frankly fantastic excursion to space, and then his frollicks in the hood.

Michael from Watching Hammer has also brought an important piece of Horror news to everyone's attention this week, please be sure to read on below and do your part to save Hammer Horror's Bray Studios:
As some may be aware, Bray Studios in England are in danger of closure and demolition to make way for housing. This would amount to the destruction of an important part of British film and cultural history. Bray was home to Hammer Films for many years (where iconic productions like
The Curse of Frankenstein,
Dracula and
The Mummy were filmed) and subsequently was used in the production of many other films (including the
Rocky Horror Picture Show and the model work for
Alien) and TV programmes (including
Space 1999 and
Dr Who). The
Save Bray Studios campaign, organised by Hammer expert Robert Simpson, is trying to raise awareness of this imminent threat and encourage others to do likewise. As such, if you love classic and horror cinema please consider taking part in the following, and inform others of it:
The
Watching Hammer blog (http://watchinghammer.blogspot.com/) would like to propose next week (Sun - Sun) as a week of
"Blog on Bray Days".
Please take part and choose a day next week as your
"Blog on Bray Day" to write a post on Bray Studios, the place they hold in cinema history, the danger they currently face, and what people can do, including relevant links.

Save Bray Studios facebook page can be found here - http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=106861216022812
