The Little Shop of Horrors (1960)

The Little Shop of Horrors (1960)
AIP etc.

Horror, Crime Comedy?
DVD
B-

This remains a very strange film, even knowing the backstory.  From the young Jack Nicholson cameo to the very New-Yorky-looking Los Angeles to the comedy style (including the obvious Dragnet parody), it is definitely unsettling, and that's not even getting into the hungry plant.  I wouldn't say this is a great film, but it is certainly entertaining, and at times even sweet.  Roger Corman directed and co-wrote.
