I had low expectations what with this being a bottom-of-the-bargain-bin film, but it was a lot of fun and had plenty of genuine laughs throughout. Just as good, if not better than the remake.

The description really says it all, blood thirsty plant, it's gotta be a winner.

Charming low-budget horror comedy.

Not nearly as good as the remake. Mercifully short.

Actually it's better than the musical!

Actually more creepy than the eighties version. The ending is the only part that could have been better, I liked the ending of the eighties one better. Plus, Nicholson's character is hilarious.

Very fun and well made movie, considering that it was nothing but a cheap small project between bigger b-movie productions. Story is classic by now (even though remake by Frank Oz is more responsible for that), but even acting from many actors is memorable. Snappy, smart dialogs are very funny. This must be the best horror farce, and not only because it's the only one I know.

Cheesy, but also very funny.

Crazy black comedy. Full of funny gags, bizarre characters and lines. It is one of those movies where its small budget was a plus. Cheeky movie all-around. Feeeed meee.

This falls somewhere in between 'so-bad-it's-good' and 'so boring'.

Very cheesy, but it made a strong impression on me as a kid. Seen today it's incredibly stupid but it's still kinda fun.

Proof of evolution. Darwin would be pleased.

Just watch the remake.

The greatest film ever shot in less than three days!

Cheesy quickie is too unrefined to be either funny or frightening. The only reason anyone thinks of this movie anymore is the stage musical that's based upon it -- which was botched in turn when the circle was closed and Hollywood turned it into a big-budget film.
