Little Shop of Horrors

Seymour has had enough of feeding the Audrey II, and decides to marry Audrey and leave town with the money he gets for doing the TV show. Audrey II catches him sneaking out, and demands food. Seymour refuses, but decides to get some meat for the plant so he can leave. While he's gone, Audrey II calls Audrey and attempts to eat her. Seymour comes back in time to save her and gets her out alive. After an executive from a plant company offers to distribute Audrey IIs worldwide, Seymour figures out Audrey II's goal: to have more Audrey IIs worldwide and keep eating. Seymour fights Audrey II inside the flower shop, but Audrey II collapses the building on him. Seymour, however, survives and electrocutes Audrey II. He and Audrey get married and live happily ever after, but the film ends with a shot of another Audrey II in their garden.

More quotes from Little Shop of Horrors

Trivia: To make the effects of Audrey II look convincing, the animatronic was usually shot at a lower frame-rate, such as 12 frames per second, and then played back at the standard 24fps. This sped-up the shots and made the animatronic's motions look more fluid and lifelike. In order to compensate, whenever a human actor would be in-shot with Audrey II, they would have to act in "slow motion" in order for their movement to look right at 24fps. (You can kinda tell in a few shots if you look closely).
