this 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 plant and singing to it and calls it audrey after his beloved. The plant develops a taste for human flesh and begins to eat people....seymour struggles to control his plant as it gets bigger and bigger and more out of control...
very funny but scary at the same time....
