Fluentiama Perfect cast and a good story

Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Eric Stevenson I'm much more familiar with the 1986 version with Rick Moranis. I missed not seeing him, but this is still a good film. The story's pretty easy to understand, with a guy named Seymour raising a man eating plant named Audrey Jr. This is one of the best movies Roger Corman ever worked on. With someone so prolific, he was bound to have a good movie sooner or later. I was surprised to see Jack Nicholson in the movie.He gives possibly the best performance in the whole movie. The funniest part was probably when Seymour says his name is Seymour and the woman he's with mockingly says that and then he says that's his name too! I admit it's kind of dumb, particularly with how the characters act. I guess it's to be expected that a movie filmed in a few days would be short. It's still a well paced film. The visuals are pretty good too. ***

AaronCapenBanner Jonathan Haze plays a clumsy young man named Seymour who works in a florist shop run by his cheap boss(played by Mel Welles) To everyone's surprise, Seymour grows an unusual plant that becomes quite popular, which he names Audrey, after his girlfriend. Sadly, Audrey the plant can only survive on blood, so Seymour reluctantly has to provide victims...Bizarre film is a big cult item with many, and certainly has a most offbeat sense of humor, but I found this a stupid, clumsy and grisly comedy with annoying characters and no point at all, especially in its ending. Jack Nicholson does give a most enthusiastic performance in his brief bit that seems dropped in from somewhere else...One funny bit: the "Fink" speech!

Uriah43 "Seymour Krelboyne" (Jonathan Haze) is a bumbling store clerk for a flower shop deep in the heart of skid row in Los Angeles. His boss, "Gravis Mushnick" (Mel Welles) finally gets tired of his incompetence and decides to fire him. But as luck would have it, Seymour has grown a brand new plant which is very rare and when people flock in to see it Gravis has a change of heart. What neither Seymour nor Gravis realize is that this plant feeds on blood. And Seymour only has so much to spare. At any rate, rather than spoil the movie for those who haven't seen it, I will just say that I first saw this movie as a kid about 50 years ago and I remembered it to this day. Back then I regarded it as a horror film, but having recently seen it again I can now appreciate it for the comedy it was all along. A "black comedy" to be sure, but a comedy just the same. I can now also appreciate Roger Corman's ability to take a shoe-string budget and make something out of almost nothing. Definitely worth a view.

alejandrothedirector Before it became a hit musical which was later adapted into the popular 1986 musical film, Little Shop of Horrors was this, a B-movie at it's best. For a film that was shot over the course of a few days, I was impressed by. The cinematography isn't daring because of this, but the film's best asset is in it's style. It's dark and farce at the same time, strangely, the two go well together in this universe. The plot is simple, a boy working in a florist's shop creates a strange plant that feeds on human flesh and blood. The more it eats, the stronger and larger it becomes, it even develops the ability to talk and hypnotize people to do it's bidding. I personally am more of a fan of the musical film version, but it's nice to see it's roots. Director Roger Corman does a good job at tying all of it together for it's short production schedule. Hats off to Jack Nicholson, who manages to make a cameo in the film.
