DVD Review: 3D Little Shop of Horrors (2-D & 3-D Included)
Summary: 1 Stars
DO NOT buy this movie if you want to watch it in 3-D. one it doesnt come with glasses. which is ok for me as i own 2 different kind of glasses. the blue/red ones and the clear/grey ones. both those kinds DO NOT WORK! i guess you have to buy some 3-D special thing and special glasses to watch it in 3-D which i think runs like 100 dollars but not sure. so DO NOT BUY if you want to watch the 3-D version. what a joke they should post that you need to buy stuff to watch. glasses easy to get but to but special equiptment should be stated in the info as i would not have bought this knowing i could not watch in 3-D -_-;DVD Review: Not Essential Halloween Material, But Still...
Summary: 3 Stars
Well, I can't quite place this movie on the same level as "Tommy" or "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." But that said, it is a pretty good musical. I can't call it essential for Halloween either. But that said, it is a nice musical. With some impressive vocals, the intro music sets the mood for story. (Scary, entertaining, and some laughs) We then meet Rick Moranis, Audrey, and their boss. They work at a Flower Shop that is clearly dying. Just when they are about to give up, Moranis pulls out a plant he bought. (We later learn that this plant came from outer space.) Suddenly, business takes off. (But the story is FAR from over.) Moranis is still sad because he loves Audrey, and she has an abusive boyfriend (Steve Martin). Just then, Moranis realizes that the plant can not only talk, but grant favors. (For a price that is.) The plant needs human blood to survive, and not surprisingly, Audrey's abusive boyfriend is the 1st target. What makes the plant so great is that it is clearly the bad guy, but he sings well, and he is so hilarious that we can not help but like him in a way. (Moranis: "I don't want to kill anyone." Plant: "I'll make it worth your while...I'm your genie. I'm your friend.") From here, Moranis finds himself getting more and more famous. (He went from unnoticed geek to the popular celebrity with more offers than he can handle.) But he starts to realize that his fame is not worth the price he will have to keep paying. (Continuing to kill people and feed blood to the plant.) As if Moranis needed a clincher to resolve his crisis of conscience, the plant tries to eat Audrey. Whatever Moranis's faults or shortcomings were up till now, he rises to the occasion when he realizes he has to take on the plant. One of his most magnanimous moments is when he realizes the plant wants to take over the world, and he confronts it. His courage is at its height when Moranis boldly says to the plant (probably knowing that the odds are against him): "Only one of us is getting out of here alive." The story is simple, but nice. The music is excellent; and the movie offers an interesting combination of horror, suspense, and hilarious comedy. While "Tommy" will probably always be my favorite musical, "Little Shop of Horrors" is nice too. DVD Review: Little Shop of Horrors
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a classic movie with an entertaining plot performed by excellent actors. It is a musical comedy with something for everyone. This movie is just for entertainment, though it does sound some solid underlying themes about facing up to your problems.DVD Review: Great

Summary: 5 Stars
I loved this film. It's so low budget and cheap, yet it's immensely watchable, hilarious, and kind of sweet in a dark, sinister way. I think it's Corman's best film (along side his Poe films, which are quite outstanding in their own way), and it's the film that was "infamously" shot in two days. The fact that Corman shot this film at record speed and made a great film is really something special. I've never seen the musicial remake (even though some say it's as good as the original, just a different take on it), but I kind of don't want to ruin the impact this film had. This is an adorable movie, a little creepy, a little scary, and a little sweet.
Description of Little Shop of Horrors
A skid-row florist's "mean green mother" of a monster plant is the center of "the looniest nuttiest most outrageous movie musical comedy in years" (Jeffrey Lyons Sneak Preview). Rick Moranis Steve Martin Ellen Green Billy Murray and other comedy greats star.Running Time: 95 min.System Requirements:Running Time: 94 Min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?COMEDY Rating:?PG-13 UPC:?085391832522 Manufacturer No:?18325Hilarious, cheapie black comedy from 1960 that may be the best film by B-picture master Roger Corman, other than Bucket of Blood, made about the same time with the same writer, Charles Griffith. Seymour (Jonathan Haze) is an assistant in a skid-row flower shop who's on the point of losing his job when the unusual plant he's developed turns the store into a major attraction. The only problem is that the plant needs human blood to live, all the while crying, "Feed me! FEED ME!" Luckily, Seymour causes a series of inadvertent deaths that more than make up for the food shortage. Jack Nicholson provides a comic sidebar as a nutjob masochist visiting a dentist's office. Giggling and wild-eyed from the same impulse that might lead others to read scandal sheets, he can be seen in the dentist's waiting room reading aloud from Pain magazine. Famous for having the shortest shooting schedule on record (two days and a night), The Little Shop of Horrors spawned an off-Broadway musical that was in turn made into a successful film in 1986, starring Rick Moranis and Steve Martin. It was in just this quick-shoot atmosphere that Corman nurtured the careers of many of America's most celebrated film directors; this little shop of honors included Francis Ford Coppola, Peter Bogdanovich, Martin Scorsese, and Jonathan Demme. The DVD has optional Japanese subtitles, very generous bios of the stars and filmmakers, and a clean, crisp transfer. --Jim Gay
