To be fair, This plant sounds like a normal person, it has already displayed abnormal behavior, and it's promising him fame and fortune("Would you like a Cadillac Car? Or a guess shot on Jack Parr? How about a date with Hedy Lamarr? You're gonna get it! If you want it, baby.)
Are you joking? His performance in Little House of Horrors was fabulous, and everyone knew and said it. And that's after he was world famous as one of the Four Tops.
Ruby Nibs Hey, it was Levi's words, not mine. When he was asked to do Audrey II, he asked his buds (no pun intended) if he should do it, and they said "Sure."
"Oh man, I could never cut up anyone up and feed them to a hungry plant like that...But what if I were to purchase fast food and disguise it as a butchered corpse? Delightfully devilish, Seymour."
@EumosVideos no, it wasn't When I was younger, I loved watching the shrek movies Even tho they had mature jokes However, as I got older, I realized what they meant
Seymore:oh boy look I got an idea I'll go to the corner store and pick you up some nice chopped sirloin A2:Must be Blooooood Seymore:toowy that's disgusting A2:Must be freeshhh😏 Seymore:oh I don't wanna hear this
I remember when I saw the stage version years ago, when Seymour said "slit my wrists?!", the Audrey II puppet's mouth flew wide open and went AAAAAAAAAAAH, made me laugh so hard!
It's actually really smart how they did the motions for the puppet. They recorded the plant in slow motion, then played it back faster to make it look like it's moving smoother and more lifelike. How they merged the slow motion and live action with the actors however, is beyond me.
There is something so sinister and - yes it must be said - sexual about the line 'feed me Seymour, feed me all night long' ... this really is a song of seduction in the purest sense ... Audrey II seduces Seymour to his dark side, he's almost like an anti-Jiminy Cricket
One of the best contributions of composer Alan Menken, who thanks to the success of this film and the musical it's based on, would ultimately have him and this show's playwright/lyricist(and original director of the stage show) Howard Ashman join with Disney to work on the first three films of the Disney Renaissance(Little Mermaid, Beauty and The Beast, and Aladdin), and soon(after Howard's sad death from AIDS) Menken would continue to work on Pocahontas, Hunchback of Notre Dame, Hercules, Tangeled, and others, wining 9 Oscars, 11 Grammy Awards, a Tony Award, and Daytime Emmy Award!
I think that’s my favourite line in the whole film because it really is an inanimate object in real life. But the puppet and puppeteers are so good that it really looks like it’s alive.
So they sped up the footage? Then forget the puppet, Rick Moranis was able to still look like he's moving naturally when sped up! And they couldn't have overlayed Rick Moranis and the puppet, since Rick himself said that he forgets he's working with a puppet on the set.
@@bonnieparkertheoutlaw7353 this movie is called little shop of horrors, it's about a plant from outer space finding its way into a plant shop, the owner (seymore) finds it sees that its sentient and that it grows from blood. After awhile the plant grows bigger and seymore realizes he can't keep feeding it his own blood. But the plant ends up convincing him the lure in people and sell the plants offsprings. After like 2 days seymore love intrest (Audrey) enters the shop and the plant, which is way larger now, tries to eat her. Seymore figures out the plant is trying to take over the world and quickly goes to his shop in time to save Audrey. The plant is now pissed and tries to kill seymore. Seymore electrocute the plant and it explodes. BUT the original ending was longer and the plant ate seymore and took over the world with the other plants.
Gonna say this right now, if the remake uses CGI instead of puppetry, it’s going to be extremely disappointing. If this was achievable in the 80’s I’d love to see what we can do now!
I hope they don't remake this they Mill butcher the living hell out of this amazing movie, if they make a puppet they couldn't possibly top the ones in the original movie
@@mr.._.6691, Oh, they could definitely make a better puppet now with all the advances we've made in tech since then... But, they wouldn't. Mfers can't even put real dogs in call of the wild.

The Parrish Show I think a mix of both would be optimal. This scene looks so good because on set the song was played at half speed and then it was sped up after they filmed it which is a testament to rick moranis’ acting if anything. I think it’s likely that the remake will use a real puppet and just animate it’s lips and I’m okay with that
I don't understand why people get upset about remakes. It's just another interpretation. Who cares what they do. We always have the original (or in this case the 1986 remake, since the original is 1960)
Honestly this is probably one of my favorite versions of little shop of horrors because rick Moranis fits the roll so well and Levi stubbs is awesome as Audrey 2 I couldn't imagine anyone else playing him. Also rick could really sing i adore his voice
@@sansythepinkhairedskeleton1568 voice for comedic effect. Audrey 2 is a mother plant. She grows more Male plants can't reproduce only spread pollen. Twooy is a female with a deep sassy voice simply because it's funny.
I still to this day think this movie has the best practical effects out of ANYthing since. The way the animatronic perfectly moves it's mouth to the words is amazing and fluid as all hell.
Levi Stubbs, lead singer of one of the greatest musical groups in history. Doesn't get enough credit for the life he gives Audrey II. The motion meshed with his personality is just incredible. Great movie making.
I normally hate musicals but I absolutely adore this masterpiece the songs aren't an interruption but actually further the story let alone the fact the acting the puppetry and every single song is top tier stunning
Why does Hollywood insist on extremely expensive CGI, when there were talented practical effect artists who could make things like this? What about the original Alien? Certain elements of The Thing?
Exactly. Jim Henson was a master puppeteer. Essentially, this movie was done by Sesame Sreet. It was even directed by Frank Oz (Grover). CGI is a lazy cop-out
Well, when the director is Frank Oz and with his background working with the master of puppetry Jim Henson of course it’s going to be great Even Jim Henson himself loved the movie and was amazed by the Audrey II puppet as well
Levi Stubbs had the craziest laugh in this movie. I wish they had some footage of him doing his vocals for this. Watching him do the giggle at 3:20 always kills me.
Does anyone know if this movie won any awards for its effects? Because it absolutely deserves to be awarded. And Levi Stubbs deserved SOMETHING for his phenomenal voice work!!! It is impossible to look away when Audrey 2 is taking/ singing!
It was nominated for Best Visual Effects and Best Original Song for Mean Green Mother From Outer Space(easily my favorite song) at the 59th Academy Awards but sadly lost both, which is insane!! For Best Original Song it lost to Take My Breath Away from Top Gun(Danger Zone is far better) thought with Visual Effects….it lost to Aliens so it was up against some incredible competition there
We did this song in my summer camp, and we had a boy doing Seymour, a girl puppeteering Twoey, and a guy offstage doing the voice. The boy doing Seymour had a REALLY good voice, and the guy doing Twoey had a really deep voice, which was just perfect! Seriously, out of the songs we did, Feed Me was my favorite, and I wasn't even in that one
God, the animation & body language of Audrey II is such perfection. The movements you can easily imagine with a human they’ve effectively translated to a plant & its tendrils! Also, the little giggles & Audrey covering their mouth with their “hands” is SENDING ME 🤣 Audrey is a player & Seymour is a fiddle!
seymour krelborn 🧒killed 🔪 his dentist👨🏻 whacked him 🤚 can't convince me 🤔 that is didn't ❌ happen 😱 fed him 👨🏻 to plants 🌿 they snackin' 🍭 wuz happenin 🤨 seymore krelborn 🧒
Damn I'm just...SO blown away with how good the puppetry is for Audrey Two! They really did an OUTSTANDING job with giving them such a wide array of expression and really bring them to life!
I always wondered why Seymore never thought to just go to a blood bank. Also, I know everyone is talking about Levi Stubbs and don't get me wrong, his voice is awesome, but Rick Moranis has got some really good pipes too! The way his voice carries so much hesitation and a tinge of fear is great, and I especially love the way he sings "I don't know!" at 2:53.
Pretty sure those didn’t exist in the 50’s(believe that’s when the story takes place) And if they did, would probably be very strange what Seymour would say to the blood bank like “Oh, I need it for fertilizer”
fun fact when filming the puppet used for the plant they had to record it at double speed to make the movements match up with the audio, so when seymour and the plant are both on screen he's moving so slow to keep up with the pace of the film once its sped up
I Had A Rough And Painful Reaction To Chinese Takeout Today, If The Person Who Liked My Comment Were To See This Reply I'd Like To Say Thank You For Bringing A Little Joy Back To My Morning.
This song is menacing and doesn’t need the music to be menacing. Not to mention the vocals are smooth like something smoother than butter. But the best part, the way Audrey 2 says phrases like “HOW BOUT THAT AAAAAAUUUUUDREY.” OR “MUST BE FRESH.” Just gives a insane tone to Audrey 2’s character.
The movie itself is already a remake of the 1960s movie, with Jack Nicolson as a cameo. If some people remake this movie, I may be able to pardon it if they keep the original ending. You can also do creatively crazy things with CGI(like Alita: Battle Angel), so they should go completely crazy till the end
This movie is the prime example of why puppetry was ahead of its time. This movie still holds up miles higher than many modern CGI-based movies. It’s just so much more realistic and authentic.
It's weak and dying of starvation, but still has the energy for a musical number. That's my kind of extraterrestrial lifeform.

Lyle Conway. He worked with the muppet workshop and Jim Henson's creature shop. He also did work on the Dark Crystal and Return to Oz.
@@NAVEMAN3 we did that. It's not as complex as this one. Ours fit one person who bucked inside like riding a bull lol
I love you you can tell it’s actually there & not just edited in. It’s so much creepier, & they didn’t even have to sacrifice giving it personality.
Levi Stubbs doesn’t get enough credit for his acting & singing performance as Twoey.
That's because he doesn't want to overshadow his Four Tops friends.
Are you joking? His performance in Little House of Horrors was fabulous, and everyone knew and said it. And that's after he was world famous as one of the Four Tops.

People ALWAYS forget about the genius of this musical..
Grease & Chicago gets all the credits..
FEED MEH BOI
When you've watched this movie so many times, that you know this scene word by word 🤣
Damn I'm just...SO blown away with how good the puppetry is for Audrey Two! They really did an OUTSTANDING job with giving them such a wide array of expression and really bring them to life!
I always wondered why Seymore never thought to just go to a blood bank.
Also, I know everyone is talking about Levi Stubbs and don't get me wrong, his voice is awesome, but Rick Moranis has got some really good pipes too! The way his voice carries so much hesitation and a tinge of fear is great, and I especially love the way he sings "I don't know!" at 2:53.
Pretty sure those didn’t exist in the 50’s(believe that’s when the story takes place)
And if they did, would probably be very strange what Seymour would say to the blood bank like “Oh, I need it for fertilizer”
fun fact when filming the puppet used for the plant they had to record it at double speed to make the movements match up with the audio, so when seymour and the plant are both on screen he's moving so slow to keep up with the pace of the film once its sped up
This musical is what got me into theatre and leading me to my love for costume design.
I need to watch this movie cuz my high school is doing a production of this and my friends brother is playing Audrey II
Kektara you're so lucky; this is my most favorite musical ever!
"A little nookie gonna clean up those zits!" LMAO 3:47
One of the funniest lyrics in the song. I remember this because I had a plenty of zits when I watched this😂😂😂
@DA BOUL BLACKLUNGZ no, that definitely didn't clear up my zits😂 Good ole Noxima got my skin together😂😂
Audrey 2: **Mood**
Seymour: **Palms Are Sweaty, Knees Weak, Arms Are Heavy**
I Had A Rough And Painful Reaction To Chinese Takeout Today, If The Person Who Liked My Comment Were To See This Reply I'd Like To Say Thank You For Bringing A Little Joy Back To My Morning.
@@LEGO2055 2 months late but, hope you felt better :). At least you weren't eaten by a hungry plant haha!
@@yourownmother9604 don’t be so sure about that 🍴
I’m hungy
Can we talk about how fluid and realistic it's motion is. Little Shop Of Horrors is in my top 10 favorite movies
Levi Stubbs did a good job on the plant's voice
God rest there souls.
Levi Stubbs is brill , but he does not get enough credit. SHAME RIP LEVI STUBBS
This song is menacing and doesn’t need the music to be menacing. Not to mention the vocals are smooth like something smoother than butter. But the best part, the way Audrey 2 says phrases like “HOW BOUT THAT AAAAAAUUUUUDREY.” OR “MUST BE FRESH.” Just gives a insane tone to Audrey 2’s character.
1:55 You know, you have to give the plant some credit for not threatning to kill seymour or anything when it had the position to do that.
I use to have a crush on seamore I don’t know why .i was a weird kid 😂
girl you are not alone
I had a crush on Twoey...
2 kinds of people, I guess...
I want a remake of this movie just to hate it
congrats! you're getting it! be careful what you wish for
History teacher: When was the exact time that the battle of King Blahblahham the XXIV began?
Me: 2:47
The remake is gonna suck. This movie doesn’t need an update. It holds up just fine.
The movie itself is already a remake of the 1960s movie, with Jack Nicolson as a cameo.
If some people remake this movie, I may be able to pardon it if they keep the original ending. You can also do creatively crazy things with CGI(like Alita: Battle Angel), so they should go completely crazy till the end
0:44 now see if Audrey ll also didn't say it has to be fresh Seymour could've just swiped some packs from a blood bank.
Something about a plant, grabbing seymour and showing him at the window just makes drop to the floor laughing 😂 seriously I can't breath 😂😂😂
How bout dat auuuuuuiiuauauauauauadr. 3:31
so cool. my childhood.
helmut klein I fell in love with the show when I saw it off Broadway ; It was 1982 and Ellen Greene was Audrey.
It was rated PG -13
*_The plant's lips are more moist than mine---_*
I watched this movie yesterday for the first time and I'm obsessed with this song
Who’s still watching 2020 cause this is a hidden classic
no not exactly. we saw a clip and looked it up because of tiktok.... lol this is weird but kinda enjoyable.
ANGRY GOD
Feed me Krelborn, feed me now!
What?
I grew up watching this. I know every word to each song. Such a talented cast.
The great Levi Stubbs was inspired casting in a great movie musical. Feed me indeed! 😋
“Doesn’t this look inanimate to you punk”
I can hear Billy Porter’s voice so clearly! He’s gonna be perfect!
Hope Audrey II looks as good in the remake as in this
#NoCGI
This movie is the prime example of why puppetry was ahead of its time. This movie still holds up miles higher than many modern CGI-based movies. It’s just so much more realistic and authentic.
