Any "Little Shop of Horrors" fans here?



I always was a big fan of the music. The actual movie scared the mess out of me as a child, but over the years its become one of my all-time favorites. Levi Stubbs(of the Four Tops) was great as the plant. He, along with Tichina Arnold and Tisha Campbell (and that other chick who noone remembers) MADE the soundtrack! Ellen Greene had a great voice too. I wonder why she never blew up...
For anyone who wants to see how the movie was originally supposed to end(like the stage production), go here:

Damn! That ending was FUCKED UP! Thank you for digging up that link... I hope they go through with their original plans to re-release the movie theatrically in 2006, with the original ending all cleaned up and FINISHED! That's why the original DVD with that rough cut ending was taken off the shelves, as the plan all along was for a "special edition" theatrical release for the 20th anniversary.

Even though its obviously not the finished product, I like the fact that the "invasion" is in black and white. Gives it a true monster movie feel.

I like the movie. I remember watching it for the first time during a sleepover at about 3 in the morning. This was at the point in childhood where it was an adventure to stay up as late as we could, you know past the late night talk shows and what not. I still enjot watching the movie with younger members of my family. smile
