Plot Summary Lonely orphan Seymour Krelborn works in Mushnik's flower shop on skid row, enduring constant criticism from Mr Mushnik and hiding his crush on co-worker Audrey.
When Seymour finds an odd, unidentified plant, he names it Audrey II. But the plant doesn't use soil, water, and sunshine like other plants, it needs blood.
Audrey II becomes a neighbourhood attraction, bringing business to the shop and fame to Seymour. The now enormous Audrey II talks to Seymour when no one is around. It gets hungrier every day and Seymour is getting weak from feeding it his blood. So when it tells him to kill for him, Seymour brings back the body of Audrey's abusive boyfriend.
Audrey and Seymour reveal their love for each other, but their happiness is threatened when Mr Mushnik accuses Seymour of murder. So Audrey II protects his meal ticket by eating Mr Mushnik.
Seymour has learned that his plant is really a space alien out for world domination. After a violent fight, Seymour electrocutes the alien, and he and Audrey marry and move to the suburbs.
