Cult Classic Comedy - Look for a youthful Jack Nicholson!
This comedy built around a flesh-eating plant has very little storyline, but it sure is packed with laughs! You’’ll mockingly imitate the human-gulping "Audrie" as she sqeals "...feed me, feed me!" A very young (then unknown) Jack Nicholson is marvelous as the wacko dental patient ready for a filling. There are many crazy surprises, but face it, this is and always will be a cult classic, NOT Academy Award material. -- One warning: If you have high standards regarding "perfect DVD quality", you should look for a better tranfer copy. The VHS version (around since the early 1980s) offers far superior quality, although it also is less than excellent. The best way to view this piece of Hollywood Nostalgia would be to catch it at a college campus -- It’’ll make you feel like a kid again! Rated 3 out of 5
good movie: badly transfered
I had origanlly seen this movie on a late night horror movie host and loved it having already seen the musical version. I bought the DVD expecting DVD quality. The transfer to DVD is bad. It’’s proably one of the worse ones I own. It’’s a little choppy, very grainy and somewhat blurry. There’’s also a spotlight effect once in awhile that I don’’t remember being there before (where the egdes of the movie are a little darker then the center). If you look carefully you can see waves going though the picture during the first part of chapter 2. The sound is a little muffled. I rate the transfer at 2 (I’’m sure there’’s a worse one) and only gave it a 3 becasue of the movie it’’s self.
