FABULOUS! submitted by brielle on August 18, 2011, 10:15am This movie is absolutely wonderful! I first saw the play live at Performance Network a few years ago, and then watched this recording before my school preformed the show. The music is catchy, the script is outrageously ridiculous, and Seymour and Audrey are adorable.

scared me submitted by jjdijkstra81 on August 26, 2011, 1:05am scared me, had the visions of the monster venus fly traps stuck in my head to this day :(

Fun submitted by Amber Kinder on July 6, 2013, 7:35am This was one of my faves when I was little.

LSOH submitted by a2sue on August 31, 2015, 9:18pm My favorite part of Little Shop of Horrors, by far, is when Steve Martin sings his "Dentist" song -- it's classic!!

Fun submitted by ecronin on August 3, 2016, 8:31am This is a silly, fun movie. Even though there's a plant eating monster, there's no blood or gore to freak out the squeamish.

Musical submitted by Judeyblu on August 19, 2016, 7:33pm Rick Moranis is a delight.

Audrey II Ate My Review submitted by Meginator on June 20, 2018, 10:59pm This is a very odd film, but it hits on the perfect blend of over-the-top comedy, sincerity, and horror with real consequences. The casting and performances are nearly perfect, from the main characters to the many hilarious cameo appearances, and Audrey II is simply astounding; it’s hard to see the film retaining much of its charm in today’s CGI-heavy environment, and Audrey II’s design and movement convincingly sells the entire project. This quirky musical won’t be for everyone, but it’s easy to see how the film retains its cult status thirty years after its release.

Hmmmm submitted by jibkidder on June 22, 2022, 11:35pm Would be interesting to revisit, to sort of investigate how dark this music production was. It completely horrified me as a child, seemed like the by far the most disturbed thing I saw before puberty.

Fun, musical is better submitted by Beatlesfan04 on June 24, 2022, 3:20pm It's fun if you've never seen the stage musical, but the stage musical is better imo.

Catchy submitted by caburr47 on June 25, 2023, 5:43pm This movie is pure nostalgia for me. I have loved it from the first time I saw it. The songs still get stuck in my head and it is a dark comedy musical with puppets.
