Little Shop of Horrors

October 3, 2012 // 0 Comments

"Little Shop of Horrors" may not really qualify as a horror movie, but I feel it nonetheless fits perfectly in the theme and spirit of Halloween. Warner Home Video has just prepared a glorious Blu-Ray version of Frank Oz's version of the [...]

For a long time, it had been considered "unfilmable", until a daring Milos Forman teamed up with writers Gerome Ragni and James Rado to create one of the best musical transitions from stage to screen. Converted directly from Broadway to a [...]
