The movie was originally made under the title Red Clover, but was changed to Leprechaun's Revenge for a March 17, 2012 television release on the Syfy Channel.

[2] Red Clover stars Billy Zane as a Massachusetts sheriff who must save his town from a homicidal leprechaun.

The town managed to temporarily rid themselves of the killer, a bloodthirsty leprechaun, by sending it to another dimension by way of an old book.

[5] One of the weapons used in the film, a staff with four sharpened horseshoes on it, was developed after Ferrante joked that they could call the movie "Four-Leaf Cleaver".

[7][8] Comparisons were made to the Leprechaun film series and the movie's plot was one of the most commonly criticized elements of Red Clover.
