Director Frank Oz’s Little Shop of Horrors, with a screenplay and lyrics by Howard Ashman and music by Alan Menken, returns to theaters across the country with its original ending intact for a two-day special cinema event from Fathom Events on Sunday, October 29, and Tuesday, October 31.
Little Shop of Horrors received widespread acclaim from critics upon its initial release, and became a perennial best-seller on home-entertainment formats.
Little Shop of Horrors was nominated for two Academy Awards, including the high- energy “Mean Green Mother From Outer Space,” which Ashman and Menken wrote specifically for the film.
Little Shop of Horrors combines a stunning visual flair with a remarkable score by Ashman and Menken, who would go on to create such classic movie musicals as The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin.
