“The original ending [of 1986’s Little Shop of Horrors] perfectly suited the film and especially the stage musical’s pitch-black, darkly funny vision of a world so cruel and devoid of humanity that it might be beyond saving… [the film] climaxes with a glorious restored ending that cycles through a veritable encyclopedia of lovingly realized horror and science-fiction tropes culled from a broad cross-section of B-movie schlock from the ‘50s and ‘60s. The voracious, maniacally cackling plants go full Godzilla and lay waste to cities and monuments across the globe.â€
—The A.V. Club’s Nathan Rabin describing the original 20-minute ending to Frank Oz’s 1986 movie remake of Little Shop of Horrors, which has been restored for the film’s new Blu-Ray release, which is in stores now.
