This lethal classic comes to NCTC with a killer new makeover. Dorky shop clerk Seymour has invented a new species of plant with an appetite for one thing only: human blood. Suddenly, he’s got everything he’s ever wanted, but now he must decide how far he’s willing to grow- sorry, go.

"Genially gruesome classic" - The New York Times
"Enduring, endearingly eccentric and romantic horror sci-fi tragicomedy—with teeth—and a lot of heart." - The Queer Review
"A delightful cross-breed that grafted toe-tapping ’60s pop, doo-wop and Motown onto an affectionate parody of B-movie schlock" - The Hollywood Reporter
