littlt shop of horrors

Advantages: a good fiolm for the whole family.
Disadvantages: its abit old nowadays

Delightful film version of the Off Broadway triumph based on the Roger Corman black comedy, carried off beautifully here by Howard Ashman and Alan Menken's memorable tunes. The plot of the film is A nerdish florist finds his chance for success and romance with the help of a giant man-eating plant who demands to be fed.The plant seems to have a craving for blood and soon begins to sing for his supper (the voice of Levi Stubbs). Soon enough, Seymour ...

Review of The Little Shop Of Horrors (DVD)

a great family film

Advantages: funny and a must-see
Disadvantages: may not be suitable for younger children

...and although I do enjoy the Rick Moranis remake, I do adore this version. Steve Martin is brilliant in the newer one, but Jack Nicholson rivals him for comedy performance in the original. Behind the comedic plot of a giant-talking-man-eating plant that needs more meat as it grows bigger and bigger, the story is rather sad, as poor Seymour tries his best to satisy Audrey ll (the plant) and the girl of his dreams Audrey. A few laughs are definate with ...

2 out of 3 ain't bad

Advantages: A Bucket of Blood and House on Haunted Hill
Disadvantages: The Ghoul

A Bucket of Blood is one of my favourite classics. An enjoyable 'Wax Museum' genre that takes a slightly different approach. This time, the artist is actually very slow witted and has no talent, as you will see. He works at a coffee shop full of poets and art buffs and wants so desperately to join their world. So, one thing leads to another, and, if your familiar with the genre, you know how it goes. House on Haunted Hill is one of the great classics ...
...horror or is it murder-mystery. To answer that question, i would have to spoil it. So, watch and find out for yourself, you won't be dissappointed. Unfortunately, The Ghoul is probably one of Karloff's worst. Karloff is one of my favourites, but he doesn't really act in this one. The story is very slow, and doesn't build up to anything all that shocking. Just some ancient Egyptian Mummy curse, some rich guy trying to be immortal. Nothing I haven't ...

...the directorial debut of Francis Ford Coppola.Family member are being bumped off by an axe murderer.Are the murders linked to the daughters death years ago?

Review of The Roger Corman Horror Collection (Box Set) (DVD)

little shop of horrors - the original version

Advantages: brilliant
Disadvantages: black and white

...original version is by far the best - the actors are a lot better than the later version - you have;- Jonathan Haze, Jackie Joseph, Mel Welles, Dick Miller, Myrtle Vail this version is in black and white which for some reason makes it scarier than the updated version. The basic plot is that a nerdy florist called seymour falls in love with audrey and names one of his plants (a venus flytrap) after her - he spends most of his day tending to the ...
