Seymour is a loner who works at Mushniks, a struggling flower shop on Skid Row, where he harbors a secret crush on fellow co-worker, Audrey. When Seymour comes across a strange and unusual plant, he becomes intent on taking care of it. Unbeknownst to him, the plant comes from outer space and the only way to satisfy it, is to feed it…blood. Here are a few movie mistakes to look for while watching 1986’s “Little Shop of Horrors”.

· Orin is singing as he arrives at his office. He stops at the room with the first patient and is pulling his tooth. At first, Orin is using one hand to pull the tooth and a moment later, he’s using two. The scene cuts to an overhead view while he is still using both hands. It cuts back to the original view and he’s only using his right hand.

· Audrey answers the phone in her apartment and is holding it in her right hand. When she asks, “Who is this?”, she brings her left hand up to the bottom of the receiver, near the cord. It cuts to a closer view when she says, “Seymour”, and her left hand is down.

· CAUTION: May Contain Spoilers! Seymour saves Audrey from being eaten by Audrey II. The front view of Audrey shows blood stains on her dress, near the lower left side of her stomach. When Audrey gets up and says she’s OK, the blood is gone.

· CAUTION: May Contain Spoilers! Seymour pulls out a gun to destroy Audrey II during the “Mean Green Mother From Outer Space” number. In the closer view of Seymour when Audrey II takes the fun from him there is smoke coming from it, even though he never fired.
