In this darkly comic cult classic, Gravis Mushnik's (Mel Welles) skid row flower shop is financially floundering, and he's ready to fire his inept assistant Seymour Krelborn (Jonathan Haze). But then Seymour shows Mr. Mushnik the unique, new plant species he's created called Audrey Jr. With visions of dollar bills, the opportunistic Mushnik uses the plant to draw people into his shop and is successful at drumming up business. But the plant soon begins to wither and Seymour fears that Audrey Jr. is going to die - unless he can figure out what it needs to grow. It seems like Seymour's problems are over when he accidentally cuts himself and a drop of blood lands on the plant, instantly reviving it. But as Audrey Jr. grows bigger, it demands more and more blood, forcing Seymour to go scouting for fresh human flesh. Luckily, Seymour won't have to go far, because on the seedy side of town there are plenty of undesirables who won't be missed - like Wilbur Force (Jack Nicholson), a pain-loving masochist. And then there's Seymour's psychotic, sadistic dentist… (Echo Bridge Entertainment)
