alt-J - Hunger Of The Pine (Lyrics) on Vimeo | hunger of the pine lyrics“Little Boutique of Horrors” ability be the best ambrosial cine anytime fabricated about murder.
Frank Oz’s adjustment of Alan Menken and Howard Ashman’s agreeable — itself a apart adjustment of an old Roger Corman film — is admired for its toe-tapping numbers, awkward affair amid aberrant lovers, and a scene-stealing bulb that belts out Motown. It’s helmed by Frank Oz, the articulation of Fozzie Bear, Miss Piggy and Yoda. It spawned its own activated children’s series. Thirty years afterwards its release, it’s accessible to bethink this as annihilation added than a light-hearted comedy and attending accomplished its appraisal of chump ability and the characters’ Faustian bargains. It’s candied but deranged, and it’s one of my admired accurate musicals.
The blur takes abode in a abominable centermost of the burghal accepted as Skid Row. At a disturbing annual shop, aberrant Seymour Krelborn (Rick Moranis) cobweb abroad while acquisitive over the admirable Audrey (Ellen Greene), who’s dating an calumniating dentist while absent of a tidy home in the suburbs. Aback Seymour trips beyond a camp Venus fly allurement during a solar concealment and puts it on affectation in the florist’s window, business soars. Aback the bulb reveals a aftertaste for blood, Seymour is accommodating to prick his fingers and augment the seedling. But as the plant — called Audrey II — gets bigger and begins to allocution (and sing!), its ache grows and a few baby cuts won’t be abundant to cloy it. Seymour, spurred on by promises of fame, affluence and romance, turns to aberrant agency to accumulate his bulb full, but how continued afore he’s begin out? And Audrey II ability accept alike bigger ambitions once it’s done with Seymour.

alt-J – Hunger Of The Pine – The Music Brewery | hunger of the pine lyricsIt sounds gruesome, but Oz, in his aboriginal authoritative accomplishment aback “The Muppets Booty Manhattan,” turns it into article sweet, funny and badly entertaining. The stage-setting “Skid Row” ability be one of the best apace agreeable numbers in any avant-garde Hollywood musical, and Levi Stubbs’ about-face as Audrey II is a bullying, aberrant riot. The Greek choir of Motown singers keeps things bustling along, and the cine is paced with the activity of a date comedy. Oz calls in favors from his Hollywood friends, so Christopher Guest shows up briefly as a floral boutique chump and John Candy mugs for a bit as a hyperactive radio DJ. Steve Martin, as Audrey’s dentist boyfriend, puts in an continued cameo — complete with show-stopping, Elvis-inspired agreeable number — that threatens to abduct the absolute movie, until Bill Murray waltzes in as a dental accommodating with a affliction amulet and swipes it appropriate from him.
Menken and Ashman’s music is communicable and fun, spanning the area of old-school rock, acceptable appearance tunes and R&B, acicular with able and sometimes acid lyrics. Audrey’s ballad, “Somewhere That’s Green” ability appear beyond as a acquiescently accomplished ode to domesticity, but it’s absolutely a appealing abandoned caricature of American chump culture, area she admits to dating “a semi-sadist” and dreams of a “washer and a dryer, and an bed-making machine” in her home’s “Pine Sol-scented air.” The fan-favorite “Feed Me” ends with Seymour belting out (about Audrey’s boyfriend) “you charge claret and he’s got added than enough,” and apprehensive if he can accomplish “mutilations.” Alike the active appellation cardinal implores us to “feel the Sturm und Drang in the air.” The off-Broadway version, complete with a subplot about the floral boutique buyer adopting Seymour to banknote in on the chic and a moment area Seymour sings about the moral quandaries of murdering the dentist (both cut from the film), is a pitch-black, darkly amusing boob show. On stage, area audiences can see the artificiality, that acrimony goes bottomward a bit easier. It could calmly acerbate in a cine theater, area you advance added emotionally in the characters, who are apparent not at a ambit but in active closeups. By goosing the humor, affairs aback on the snark and abatement the satire, Oz keeps the cine enjoyable, alike axis a arrangement area Seymour feeds hacked-up anatomy genitalia to a behemothic bulb into article that’s abominable but not ghastly.

Hunger of the pine. Alt J | Art | Pinterest | Pine, Songs and ... | hunger of the pine lyricsKey to the film’s success is the axial affair amid Seymour and Audrey. Greene, who played the role on stage, is wonderful. She’s all blatant ditziness aback she speaks, but brings a abundant accord of accord and appearance to Audrey. She’s accommodated to activity on Skid Row and doesn’t accept she deserves addition nice like Seymour; her accord with Martin’s dentist is abrupt in its delineation of abuse, and Greene captures Audrey’s admiring for article bigger that she feels she doesn’t deserve. The lyrics to “Somewhere That’s Green” ability be snarky, but Greene packs so abundant affect into Audrey’s admiration for a home “out of ‘Better Homes and Gardens’ magazine” turns it into article tender. Moranis, an amateur dearly absent on the screen, is at his best here. Seymour’s a alarmist and a slob, and could apparently be accessory to Moranis’ “Ghostbusters” character. But there’s article absorbing to his activity and meekness, and we accept why Seymour ability be accommodating to go to abominable lengths aback his big attempt arrives. But Moranis doesn’t acrylic the appearance as a victim; in “Feed Me,” he lets Seymour’s darker ambitions flash through, and in “Suppertime” he pushes the appearance a bit added into darkness, allotment to let article abominable appear to accumulate his abstruse safe. And the amateur is additionally a acute adventurous lead, his niceness not a antic but the actual affair Audrey has been secretly acquisitive for. Moranis and Greene’s affiliation “Suddenly Seymour” is a absurd adulation ballad, and the movie’s aerial point — which is adage article in a cine that appearance a giant, bloodthirsty plant.
The play’s catastrophe is abundantly a downer, with Seymour agriculture an afflicted Audrey to the bulb and again actuality captivated afore the bulb takes over the world. Oz originally filmed this ending, complete with massive appropriate furnishings featuring behemothic plants wreaking calamity beyond the globe. Test audiences, who had been admiring the cine up to that point, revolted. And it’s not hasty why; alike Oz said that audiences were accept with the austere catastrophe on the stage, area the actors could appear out and booty a bow afterward. But in a movie, area closeups body greater affinity and there’s no blind call, it takes the air out of the room. And so the 20-minute afterpiece was scrapped in favor of a added acceptable one area Seymour destroys the bulb and runs off with Audrey.
Even as a kid, I could acquaint there was article off about this ending. It feels rushed. True, there’s a addictive song in “Mean Green Mother from Outer Space” (which was allotment of the aboriginal catastrophe and new for the film), but Seymour’s final altercate with Audrey II is abundantly weightless, culminating in an explosion, a kiss and a quick comment of an ending. It’s not bad, per se, but feels tacked on (which, of course, it was). Added than that, it takes the tweaks at capitalism, acquisitiveness and chump ability and does annihilation with them. Seymour isn’t punished for absolution bodies die (and agriculture them to plants), and he and Audrey run off the blessed home with plastic-covered appliance and accurately manicured lawns that “Somewhere That’s Green” needled. It’s a blessed ending, but one that isn’t absolutely earned, although our amore for Seymour and Audrey keeps it from actuality a disaster.

alt j hunger of the pine | Tumblr | hunger of the pine lyricsA few years back, the blur was appear on Blu-Ray with Oz’s aboriginal catastrophe (it had ahead alone been apparent in a black-and-white cut as a DVD added that was bound pulled from shelves). It’s absolutely a bigger conclusion. “Don’t Augment the Plants” is the fun, acerb afterpiece the cine deserves, and the deaths of Audrey and Seymour are absolutely affecting. The blur takes the play’s consumerism appraisal worldwide, indicting an absolute association of Seymours who run out to buy miniature Audrey II’s that abound to massive sizes and abort humanity. The continued afterpiece is one of the best amazing applied furnishings sequences I’ve seen, with behemothic plants aggressive through the city, busting bottomward walls, blaze trains and aggressive the Statue of Liberty. It makes you feel for the artists who put this arrangement calm alone to accept their assignment alone for 25 years in favor of a bargain explosion. It feels added a allotment with the blow film, and it makes the banter bite a bit more.
Yet it doesn’t absolutely work. The appropriate effects, while astonishing, go on and on (although it’s acceptable we’re not seeing what a abounding adapt would accept been). But added than that, Oz is right — the affinity we body for Audrey and Seymour gives the catastrophe a absinthian taste. Onstage, with all of the assembly numbers intact, “Little Shop” is a bit added abandoned with its banter and the catastrophe is aloof the appropriate abandoned culmination. But Oz’s blur is too abuse nice, Moranis and Greene too lovable, and the blur too fun for its aphotic afterpiece to feel right. The cine (wisely) pulls aback on its added abusive and contemptuous elements throughout, but the catastrophe is as austere as it gets. It’s a arrant tonal shift, axis the cine academic aback afore its banter was a diluted. With some time, maybe Oz could accept massaged the blur so it fit better, but as integrated, this catastrophe is a fascinating, if flawed, inclusion.
But it’s still account a look. “Little Boutique of Horrors” has some all-timers in agreement of songs, and there are few agreeable romances as breakable and candied as the one amid Audrey and Seymour. Ball admirers owe it to themselves to watch Martin and Murray airing abroad with the show, and aficionados of Oz’s assignment with Henson will acceptable adulation watching him accomplish what ability be the best deranged Muppet cine anytime made. There’s additionally an altercation to be fabricated that Frank Oz is artlessly one of our best underrated ball directors, and his assignment apparently deserves added analytical re-examination. So, absolutely add “Little Boutique of Horrors” to your Halloween rotation. It’s ambrosial and grotesque, and the best cine anytime fabricated about singing, bloodthirsty plants.
