This is even supported by Corman himself! I have no idea what to think about this movie.
The seed for another remake has been planted. Roger Corman's The Little Shop of Horrors is going to be updated under the direction of Corman vet and Wrong Turn 3 helmer Declan O'Brien.
"I just optioned the remake rights," O'Brien announced to ShockTillYouDrop.com this morning. "We're going to set ...
Not to nitpick, but this would be the second Little Shop of Horrors remake. Alright, you got me. That was a nitpick.
Anyway, why not? It might work, it might not. There's certainly a lot of directions they could take an update in. I'll withhold judgment on this one.
It will probably not be a musical and will probably be very gory with little CGI Audrey IIs running around. Yeah, running around, you can't have a scary monster movie when the monster can't even stalk it's victims.
This will probably totally suck.
I'm all for a slightly more involved presentation that doesn't make fun of itself quite as much as the Frank Oz version. I enjoy the 80s version quite a bit, but it was a little too "stage musical" in presentation for my film tastes. If I wanted to see a live theatre production, I'd go see live theatre!

Ten minutes into " A Bucket of Blood " (the "beatnik" version of Little Shop, with Joe Dante star Dick Miller), and you know you're watching campy spoof. The satiric coolness of Death Race 2000 , however, has already been expounded upon in other threads (ahemjasonstathamdoesn'tgetit) Last edited by EricJ; Yesterday at 09:40 PM .

I see, thanks for that information! I've never seen the other Corman films you listed.

Well for me this fall in the category of I don't truly care if they do another one. I saw the original and the 80's version, once each was enough and I have no wish to see them again. Since I did not really like the first two I won't bother with this new version.
