At 9pm this coming Sunday night (St. Patrick’s Day!), Syfy will premiere the brand new film Leprechaun Returns for the very first time on TV, nestled inside of a franchise marathon.

The marathon kicks off at 9am EST on Sunday, March 17th with Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood, and it also includes the previous five films in the original franchise.

Here’s the full St. Patrick’s Day schedule:

In last year’s Leprechaun Returns (read our review), a sequel to the original film, “The deadly, wisecracking Leprechaun is back in all his gory glory. When the sorority sisters of the Alpha Upsilon house decide to go green and use an old well as their water source, they unwittingly awaken a pint-sized, green-clad monster. The Leprechaun wants a pot of gold buried near the sorority house, but first, he must recover his powers with a killing spree—and only the girls of AU can stop him.“

Leprechaun Returns co-stars Mark Holton, reprising the role of Ozzie!

There’s only 8 movies, 3 are being repeated

Edit: 3 are being repeated, only seven individual movies in the schedule, but there are 8 overall in the franchise. Origins isn’t being played during this marathon for some reason.

Edit: Still, shocked to learn they made so many
