βIβm crazy about kosher flowersβ - me too because flowers are so prone to bugs, you donβt have to worry about that with kosher certification π #Monsterdon
I hope Seymour is up on his tetanus shots
Thereβs no accounting for the taste of people
"Isn't he delicious" I'm sure we'll find out #monsterdon
its phantastic pholks
#Monsterdon
Audrey Jr is the plant gay's anxiety equivalent of the Eraserhead baby
Wonder if that Japanese gardener has any teddy-bears you also aren't supposed to feed blood to (after midnight).
Geez, Seymour, donβt talk to the plant: itβll die of depression #monsterdon
Blink and you'll miss it stock footage
#Monsterdon <sickos.jpg> yes hahaha yes
"My wife's making gardenias for dinner."
Cirrhosis, grandma. That's what it's gonna do for you.

Green faces - kinda artsy
Hoo boy, this is hokey #Monsterdon
#monsterdon wait, was this ORIGINALLY-originally a play intended for High School production? It feels like that but then we did it with the cast of Gilligan's Island and a decent jazz ensemble.
Audrey is pretty funny:
Mushnik: "You like even skunk cabbage"
Audrey: "...yeah"
Seymour: "I'm not worth it"
Audrey: "Who says that?"
S: "Everybody"
A: "I know"
#Monsterdon "Yeah I know." Oh man, Audrey doesn't pull punches!
#monsterdon Ma is fit for the Betty Ford clinic⦠LOL
A fine figurative of a man? Literally? #monsterdon
Is the flower eater an alien?
I missed why Dick Miller is eating flowers, perhaps it's for the best....
Big Trouble in Little Flower Shop #Monsterdon
"Kosher flowers"
yeah, I was looking for the overt sign, because Mushnik is a sterotype and a half for your ass
fucking Corman
@rallias If you're sick enough to be drinking this stuff I don't think you're worried about the carcinogen properties of trace benzene?
@kcarr2015 "dirty rainbow" seems to be the color scheme
#monsterdon
@blogdiva
Honestly it's always been unclear to me why "Skid Row" is important to the story.
I bet Mom likes the Vitavegamin too!
Ma has a cast iron stomach and a hypochondria. #monsterdon
the AI colorization is making the plant change colors randomly
Oh crap, I made the mistake of pulling up the colorized version of this. It's so bad I think it's done with AI. π΅βπ«
Alcoholic content 98%? That's... north of what you can produce by distillation alone. Something scary about that stuffs.
This movie has the weirdest consumables.
#monsterdon
KSIK "K sick"?
"Music for old invalids"
I want a surge of warm health.
Oh, it's one of those "medicines" that are all alcohol & cocaine!
#Monsterdon So was Dick Miller literaly chewing the scenery earlier?
Seymore is good at tripping over things
#monsterdon
98% π¨
#monsterdon
Dr. Slurpsaddle is a perfect name, no notes
Dick Miller was also in X The Man with the X-ray Eyes #monsterdon
98% tonic. Yup, that's about right.
lol, America doesn't have an NHS, we had one even back then....TERRIBLE comedy movies about them, absolutely shocking....
#Monsterdon Now, I don't know if he got it from this movie; he hates musicals.
mushnik screams too much
#monsterdon Radio K S I K! A real sick joke.
I wouldn't mind paying $0.49 for a pair of pants.
I stopped watching spongebob years ago it probably already did this lmao
you know how Spongebob had that episode that was a re-telling of the Telltale Heart?
I feel like you could have a version of Little Shop
except it has to be the hologram meatloaf because it has to make no sense some fish dude is eating it
This may be the best-written Corman film I've ever seen. Like, it borders on funny! #monsterdon
Oooh I remember the carnation guy. Heβs why I have always wanted to eat carnations. Food value. Donβt knock it until you try it. #Monsterdon
Something Something At-Will Employment
...is he eating the flowers?
In my future utopia I'd have robot versions of Dick Miller delivering character and helping people....
#Monsterdon LOL, my dad used to say "I'll eat it here" when asked if he wanted a bag for inedible things. He said he did it to see if the clerks are paying attention.
the wacky music lets you know how funny it is
Not just eating the flowers but SEASONING them.
Is it salt? is it pepper?
Is it hungarian paprika that will lead to queer dreams? (No)
also having "Mrs. Shiva" shopping for a funeral is a bit heavy-handed #monsterdon
Don't look at your staff like that, if you haven't trained them then you are the fool...
Very normal behavior for a dentist #Monsterdon
I forgot this had an animated opening...
Well "animated"
#Monsterdon #LittleShopOfHorrors
Mrs Shiva, one would think, were Jewish, but I'll note that we don't send flowers, they're not part of our detailed and variegated funerary traditions.
We've seen that dude in a bunch of #Monsterdon films. #LittleShopOfHorrors
And ENYA is in this?!!
Yes, no songs! Fuck musicals! #monsterdon
#Monsterdon this shop is very jewish-coded :D
See, the joke that he does the posters himself in pidgin Yiddish-English.
new & used loans and cash??? (in this economy?)
I like the illustration opening sequence even though itβs a budget choice #monsterdon
#Monsterdon At least Prime tels you how long the ads will be
#monsterdon This style of black and white line drawing of cityscapes was in vogue for a while.

So apparently the Piranha Plants in the Mario series were directly inspired by Audrey Jr.
@diazona Thanks, Has Audrey eaten humans yet?
The deep cut of having muses/fates/furies as a chorus is so great.
oh mai. baby has a deep voice
#Monsterdon
Just came from Big Money Hustlas watch party now in #Monsterdon Miru. How much have I missed of Wrong Little Shop of Horrors?
Weird World Of Wink Wilkerson reminds me of modern podcasts that should really be fucking video since they're trying to describe shit that needs to be fucking seen. For fucks' sake.
#Monsterdon
Well. I had fun!
Thanks, y'all! And happy trails....
:raccoon_cool:
@Fragglemuppet Oh I gotcha, makes sense.
I suppose I don't often think about that but I really don't have a good reason why!
sesaww right?
@LuluHelle π π

Fun Little Shop of Horrors musical trivia:
Steve Martin's song is totally riffing on the Elvis movie Roustabout in the first verse, when he's on the motorbike with the leather jacket. π€£
