Oh, God. Please, don't even mention NeverEnding Story III. I'm still trying to wipe it from my memory... Nothing against what the Jim Henson Company and Creature Shop did for the film, but the film itself, in my opinion, was utter crap. I prefer to believe that there was never a third film.

I'm STILL blown away by Audrey II in the film version of Little Shop of Horros (1986)!

Great cast, great film, great killer plant - totally underrated!!!
Yes, the plant is AWESOME !!! I'm just not a fan of musicals...

Did you see the alternate ending? Very cool stuff!

I've seen stills of it. I do know how it ends though - and I'd call it the real ending as that's how it was originally written in the play it's based on. The final song is "Don't Feed the Plants". Pretty macabre! Tmi Burton would make a great (albeit unecessary) remake, eh?

The alternate ending is on the DVD, but only in b/w. Cool anyway.
Yes, Burton could do an interesting remake I think.

I have the dvd and have never watched the alternate ending... perhaps I should go pop that in the player right now.

But be sure to look for the first release. I think the newer release doesn't have this ending!!!
