DubyaHan The movie is wildly uneven but lively and timely - in its own surreal way

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

jamesgandrew A young man named Seymour works for a florist and discovers a strange and unusual plant that attracts the locals. However, he later finds the plant is attracted to human blood and flesh and after a series of accidental occurrences, he is forced to feed the plant.Roger Corman is a familiar name in the world of schlock. He filmed Little Shop of Horrors in two days and a night on a budget of $22500. Corman after his first few films created his own company 'New World Pictures', which produced films from the likes of exploitation flicks to foreign arthouse films.Little Shop of Horrors is an excellent comedy horror that takes a schlocky premise and turns it into something clever and endearing. Jonathan Haze is excellent at playing the awkward Seymour, who you really get attached to and feel sorry for as these unfortunate events occur.The film also stars some recognisable faces. Jack Nicholson makes a cameo as a masochist who enjoys pain and getting his teeth ripped out by the dentist. Dick Miller also makes an appearance as a store regular and he's starred in the majority of Joe Dante's films and also makes a show in many eighties films such as 'The Terminator', 'After Hours' and 'Gremlins', just to name a few. Jackie Joseph plays Audrey and coincided with Dick Miller as the Futterman's in Joe Dante's classic 'Gremlins'.The film was later adapted into a famous Broadway musical and got a remake in 1986 directed by Frank Oz. I find Frank Oz's version to be great in its own right, however, I would try to track down the most recent release which reinserts Oz's preferred pessimistic and impressive ending he intended to use originally.

Paul Magne Haakonsen I remember seeing the musical version of this classic movie back in my youth and did enjoy that, but never having seen the original 1960 movie, I made a super bargain at a local DVD store and picked it up.Now, keep in mind that this movie is 52 years old already and shot in black/white, but still it was a great movie to watch. A lovely dark comedy with a funny and good story.To shortly summarize what "The Little Shop of Horrors" is about, then Seymour Krelboyne (played by Jonathan Haze) works at Gravis Mushnick's (played by Mel Welles) flower store, and he is hopelessly in love with Audrey Fulquard (played by Jackie Joseph). Having a very unique plant, Seymour names the plant after his love, and he accidentally finds out that the plant needs blood to live. As the plant grows in size, which it does at an alarming rate, the plant grows more and more hungry and need more than just blood to satisfy it's ravenous desire.The storyline is very good, easy to follow and offer some funny moments. Being such an old movie, don't expect too much from the props and scenery, although I will say that the movie actually fares quite well with whatever meager props and scenery they made use of.And of course, Jack Nicholson, is in this movie as well, one of the first performances of his I have seen personally, but he is not the star of the movie. After his fame and success in Hollywood, of course, his name is one of the headliners on the DVD cover, despite him having a small role only."The Little Shop of Horrors" is a definite must watch movie, because it is a great comedy from that age, and probably a pioneer in its genre at the time. Well worth a watch and a great addition to any movie aficionado's DVD collection.
