Puts a new spin on "Let's Do Lunch"
This little, independently made student movie is filled with fun, sardonic moments, hilarious spoofs and truly black comedy with no annoying moral messages. A florist in the middle of a runned down neighborhood hires an assistant to help him in his shop. The assistant finds and cultivates a plant that needs food and plant food just won't do. <

>I have always loved the original better than the musical because it has a more personal, small movie feel and it is a maverick, offering a story that was abit graphic for the time in a format that is equally dark and alluring. Fun, fun, fun! <

>Cameo Alert! Keep an eye out for a very, very young Jack Nicholson in one of his first roles as a masochist who pays a visit to the local quack dentist and gets all the pain he can handle. <

>See it if you can.

Great Classic
This film stands the test of time. It is just a good story. I laughed, got some chills, and just plain appreciated the acting of a young Jack Nicholson. <

A cult movie!
No matter the distant opinions you may have or mutual agreements respect to this black comedy. Plenty of laughable situations, the picture is told at different levels. A meek florist shop employee has developed a very peculiar way of feeding a curious plant: he likes human flesh. Obviously that premise will allow to show the reduced list of involuntary candidates: a drunkard who suffers an accident, a sadistic dentist, a thief and finally a pros. Curiously three of these deaths are accidental but one is induced by the floristry's owner and all of them are nightly facts. Additionally we have a broad display of characters depicted with sublime cynicism as the eat flower, the low budget Mrs. who lives according a predetermined script: familiar tragedy to get discount, and a masochist who thrives the dental interventions: Jack Nicholson in his beginnings. <
>The film was made in just two days and remains to my mind as the most surrealist American movie until now. This movie joins to Hallelujah, the hills and the Troublemaker as the purest and genuine independent expression of the craziest humor in those decades. <
