ROGER CORMAN AT HIS BLACK COMEDY BEST

LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS is one of the first and finest black comedies ever made and has become a cinematic classic. The little shop of horrors is a flower shop located in the unlikely vicinity of Skid Row. The film tells the story of Seymour Krelboin (Jonathan Haze) who works in the flower shop and is in love with Audrey (Jackie Joseph) who is dating the sadistic dentist Orin Scrivello. Orin also treats a pain loving dental patient played by the irrepressible Jack Nicholson. Seymour acquires a new plant and names it Audrey II after the love of his life. Alas the plant needs human flesh and blood to survive - it also talks - consistently screeching Feed Me! Feeeeed Me! Seymour is desperate in his ever more frenzied search to find food for Audrey II.

... but when the plant blossoms, to Seymour's horror, the flowers are the faces of it's victims and the evidence of the 'human meals' it has eaten.
