Little Shop Of Horrors
Meek flower shop assistant Seymour (Rick Moranis) pines for co-worker Audrey (Ellen Greene). During a total eclipse, he discovers an unusual plant he names Audrey II, which feeds only on human flesh and blood. The growing plant attracts a great deal of business for the previously struggling store. After Seymour feeds Audrey's boyfriend, Orin (Steve Martin), to the plant after Orin's accidental death, he must come up with more bodies for the increasingly bloodthirsty plant.
Critic Reviews:
- " Levi Stubbs's big voice explodes from the insatiable plant, and there's a knockout turn by Steve Martin and Bill Murray as a sadistic dentist and his masochistic patient. " – Walter Goodman
- " The best moments in this 1987 release belong to Dr. Steve Martin as a dentist with a professional yen for pain. " – Pat Graham
- " You can try not liking this adaptation of the Off-Broadway musical hit – it has no polish and a pushy way with a gag – but the movie sneaks up on you, about as subtly as Audrey II. " – Richard Corliss
