the SyFy original movie thread for 2012

[jefferiestubes8]

Hey it's March that must mean St. Patrick's Day and Leprechauns right? SyFy thinks so.
Leprechaun’s Revenge

premiering Saturday, March 17 at 9PM (ET/PT), days before the annual St. Patrick's Day parade, a teenage girl unwittingly unleashes a murderous leprechaun upon the citizens of a small town. The creature goes on a violent rampage, slaughtering descendants of the original settlers who stole its gold. Now the girl and her family have four days to kill the leprechaun – otherwise she will die from the leprechaun curse. Leprechaun’s Revenge is a production of After Dark Films.

Where did this plot come from? Dr. Evil in Austin Powers 2?

St. Patrick’s Day Saturday Original Movie Leprechaun’s Revenge, starring Billy Zane (Titanic) and William Devane (24).

and we return with our regularly scheduled schlockfest film at the end of the month:

Continuing the terror on Saturday, March 31 at 9PM (ET/PT), Syfy will premiere the Saturday Original Movie Seattle Superstorm, starring Esai Morales (Caprica) and Ona Grauer (The Collector). When a UFO crashes into Seattle's Puget Sound, it triggers unusual, deadly weather and geological phenomena. As the chaos escalates and the violent storms threaten to sweep across North America, the scientist (Morales) and soldier (Grauer) must stop the Seattle Superstorm before it spreads further – and annihilates the planet. Seattle Superstorm is a production of Mar Vista Entertainment and Two 4 the Money Media.

so another disaster weather film caused by UFO.

I admit I taped Witchslayer Gretl, although I haven't had a chance to watch it yet.

I admit I taped Witchslayer Gretl, although I haven't had a chance to watch it yet.

I thought it was OK for a Syfy movie, I ended up watching it all. I rate Syfy movies by how far I get in before turning it off, usually not more than 5 or 10 minutes. I mean, it's horrible, but had some intentional and unintentional entertaining moments.

I posted a couple of comments on IMDB's forum in the "Things I learned from this movie" thread.
