12 Movies Friends Stars Want You To Forget

Leprechaun Returns Jennifer Aniston

The One With the Killer Leprechaun.

Of all the Friends, none have enjoyed such a career after the show as Jennifer Aniston. We all have to start somewhere though, and Jennifer made her mark (for better or worse) with 1993's Leprechaun.

Starring Warwick Davis as a killer Leprechaun slaughtering his way back to his pot of gold, Leprechaun features Aniston as Tory Reding - one of the film's few survivors. Killing the Leprechaun with a shotgun, chewing gum and four-leaf clover, Tory survives to see another day . From there, the Leprechaun would end up in space (no really, look it up) and Aniston would be propelled into the stratosphere, cast in one of the most popular TV comedies of all time.

And, of all the films on this list, Leprechaun is one of the more watchable - a goofy B-movie which spawned one of horror's unlikeliest franchises. Sure, we can attribute very little of that to Aniston herself... but she certainly didn't hurt it.
