It started as a 1960 Roger Corman horror comedy, filmed in two days; it then inspired a lavish 1982 Broadway musical with music and lyrics by Alan Menken and Howard Ashman. Finally in 1986, Little Shop of Horrors graduated into a multimillion-dollar, all-star film musical!!
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.
BONUS! Presale ticket holders will be entered to win door prizes during the screening!
“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, New York Times
“This wild and witty musical is great fun.” – Geoff Andrew, Time Out
“A full-blown movie musical, and quite a winning one.” – Janet Maslin, New York Times
“A pulp pop twist on the original Roger Corman horror comedy that’s funny, fun, catchy, and well worth its reputation.” – Felix Vasquez Jr., Cinema Crazed
