.When Audrey, Mushnick, and the two police officers returned, Audry two was wilted and one last bud was left, the head of Seymour whining pitifully that he "didnt mean to do it"
The original original is pretty creepy o.o The set for Seymour to get his award is the same as when Audrey 2s buds were supposed to bloom. When the four flowers bloomed, each was a head of Audrey 2's meals. Seymour fled from the police and then returned to the shop to accuse Audrey of ruining his life. He climbed into the plants mouth with a knife planning to kill it
For all the people who don't know if Twoey is a male, a female, or a plain it: Yesterday I was going through special features on my LSoH disc and when reading about Audrey 2 it said, could move and bite the finger of "her" victim. If it was on the disc's special features, i'm sure that confirms Audrey 2 is indeed, female, despite Levi Stubb's voice.
This is the original ending, but the actual original colour version of the ending was destroyed in fire so only this one survives. I think this ending is much more realistic. Obviously a giant plant eating everyone isnt realistic but emotionally and with him dieing its shows that even with everything he had, money and fame hes still only human so against a plant however many feet bigger then him...he stood no chance.
I know the film was meant to be dark, but it was still somewhat light fun. And both Seymour and Audrey getting killed is a bit too dark since the rest of the movie is comparatively harmless. Meh, I guess it's alright since this was how the original Roger Corman movie ended, but still...
Does anyone think that the audio for the song is much better for the happy ending? This one feels more "old school" horror movie, but the song is so not matching that tone. The happy ending felt more modern, more in tune with the lyrics, and more ominous. This plant meant business.
There always did seem to be something slightly off about the other ending. Now I know it's because the movie was originally meant to end that way. Idk if I really have a preference though.
@goji3755 The edition with this ending was recalled shortly after release. I believe you can find this version on ebay, but it might set you back around $100 due to it's rarity.
"Plant, I will kill you for what you have done. If I only had died back on Skid Row or in the dentists office, I wouldn't have to suffer this humiliation. You made me a murdurer, a monster."
If this whole movie were in blakc and white when it was release,I'd be a little more freaked out just cause the effect it has on the design of audrey II
@alexkellyissexy. I think this version makes more sense. Though realistically, after the gun failed, he should have cut the gas line and burned the place to the ground. They could have made it a "everything dies including the plant" and kept the final apocalyptic ending.
i like this ending better, and even though seymour is the protagonist of the film, he did let the plant eat the dentist, mushnik, and even Audrey, he created this monster in a way, so it seems only fair when he gets eaten at the end, he knew that a plant that survived on human blood could lead to no good.
Now for a turn for the worst that isn't just lame attempts at shock value, consider Unforgiven. The death of Freeman's character is sad and shocking, but it's an appropriate step. It testifies to the themes of violence the movie has been covering, and takes the rest of the characters to the terrible standoff they've set themselves up for, tying up the theme. It doesn't just betray it's tone, and it doesn't get excessive or aggressively obvious to force the idea on us.
i like this version better cause he actually attempted to shoot audry II in the other he was to much of a coward but obviously after the death of his love he'd be more acceptable to kill the plant
I don't get the comments that state that because the film was absurd, it couldn't have a dark ending. It's as if they're saying that because it doesn't fit snugly into a modern trope, it's failure.
This, the original ending, is much better, on pretty much every level.
@Talloweedthey this ending was rewritten and re-shot after receiving negative reviews from test audiences. their said it was too confusing and too dark.
To those that bash the original ending, take some this into consideration: The original LSoH movie AND stage play musical both ended like this, and they both did incredibly well. Also, while this ending is, in fact, downer, they manage to keep it upbeat with the songs. Lastly, LSoH is basically meant to be a modern-day Greek tragedy, as proven by the Greek Chorus (the girls), and thus this ending SHOULD have been the ending used. Yeah, its a downer, but thats the point.
I would love it if they released the two versions of the movie. One with this ending (Edited back into the movie..not as a special feature) and one with the newer one
@aquanette123 Actually, that's probably the main reason anyone supports this ending. Some people just like the thought going against the grain, whether it makes sense or not, and eat up these attempts at shock value without a thought. If they'd used this ending, we'd probably hear more about it being the overblown bid for melodrama that it is.
If they had of gone with this ending, I think it would have been better if the film ended fadeing out with Seymour's glasses. I feel it leaves more of an impact on the audience then with this darker ending of the film thats closer to the original 60's version and some of the stage plays. Anyone else agree?
If the movie had ended this way, I would've said exactly what I said at the end of the (original) "Wicker Man," which was: "...wait, seriously? That's how it's ending?" Although whereas it was actually kind of fitting with that film, I think with this film it would have been a bit of an unnecessary downer. It reminds me of that line from the MST3K episode "Merlin's Shop of Mystical Wonders."
"So in the end evil wins, Grandpa Borgnine?"
"That's right! Even your tiny soul is doomed, Billy."
D8 there is only one reason that I am glad that they didn't go with the original ending.
SEYMOUR DOESN'T DIE! I mean, he CAN"T DIE! well, tectonically he can, but you know what I mean. I mean, heck, they can kill Audrey, I really don't care, but NEVER Seymour! NEVAH EVEAH! D8
I really hate that the fandom is so fucking divided over this ending. I know, this ending made the morals of the movie better/stuck to the original/etc. However, the fact that this whole thing seems to affect overall opinions of the movie is bullshit. It was a fantastically made and fun movie. Can we not all just agree on that and stop bitching about something that can never be changed?
@LovelyTeddy13 I just think it's funny that no one was really objecting to the ending they used until they found out about this one, upon which the other one is for wusses all of the sudden. People love to think that embracing anything darker or sadder or crueler somehow automatically makes them more mature or realistic or something.
@moroney1 Silly me, I guess I should have known from the film's overwhelmingly positive critical reception and massive cult following, along with the fact that the people who actually did first see this film with this ending flat out rejected it, favoring an ending more like the one they ultimately went with. Wait...
@itstheblueguy a cult classic doesnt mean its anygood, and didnt the film recieve critical acclaim for its eefects more than anythiung els. This film ughh not a patch on the musical
@moroney1 First off, actually read reviews before you try to toss them out as inferior to the logic of some random guy on youtube (you). Check all the movie reviews you can find, and youll see the first thing most of them praise is the characters/performances, the comedic charm, or the songs. Siskel and Ebert also said it succeeded as a love story, with Ebert even writing that it DOESN'T "insist on its virtuoso special effects" instead focusing on being "unforced and delightful".
in the movie rick moranis made seymour too lovable to kill. he technically never murdered anyone in the film (orin overdoes on laughing gas and mushnik simply got too close to audrey 2), and this ending made it too dramatic and unfun compared to the rest of the film. in the play its a whole different thing, but killing Seymour in the movie is like killing all the characters off at the end of a Disney musical.
The ending they used had Seymour still having to face up to what he created while maintaining the film's up beat sense of fun. It gave a fittingly subtle parable and left saying "u can think on it as u please, hope everyone had a good time".
This one is more like "Everyone dies! Stop smiling, that's over! No blance, no attempt to stay on key, just cruel retribution. Everyone DIIESSS!!!! Suck it audience! SUCK IT"!
@itstheblueguy LOL, hey now! I love this movie. Personally I like happy endings better but....I can kinda get why this one would've been needed, it was from both the original movie (60s) and play. Overall I am one of the movie goers that would've preferred the "Creative Failure" ending.
@ElitevsNinja Seymore terrorized, shot at and buried alive in a death match he's fighting to right his wrongs isn't nearly morally profound enough for a semi-dark comedy? Such needs to be shoved down our throats until it comes out our ears instead?
Some have claimed this, and I'd swear it's a cover up for the fact that they enjoy the novelty of seeing the protagonists die. I bet if the dentist had been the main character and come out on top, just as evil, the same people would be in favor.
@itstheblueguy So you're saying it's more normal to use an ending where the guy who murdered two people for personal gain lives happily ever after makes more sense? I'm not going to deny that it's a more satisfying ending in some sense, since we get to see the monster killed, but for 90% of history no writer on earth would ever have considered NOT killing Seymour at the end. We're too spoiled on happy endings.
@Brickey8 No one tried warping it into this overblown bid for melodrama either. Sloppy happy endings are what're too common. Now people swallow anything mean and think they're smart or cool.
His crime was that he watched a sociopath kill himself and sort of helped Audrey 2 eat the guy holding a gun on him. He still risked his life, and It's a comedy, not Macbeth. And whoever's side ur on, dragging his love, the world, and the audience into it and playing it all tragic is pure self indulgence.
@itstheblueguy Tooey's character was always seductively brutal. It's obvious he is growing bigger and stronger and taking more control psychologically over Seymore who is his ultimate victim, being coaxed to care for the plant. I think that the movie works best as a tragic romance, and you know, it makes you hate the rest of humanity so while Seymour and Audrey dying is sad, Tooey and his sporelings' conquest of Earth bears a certain satisfaction. Fuck all of the Mushniks and sadist dentists.
@trsdos If it's played more as a tragic romance, it could work, but it with subject matter like this, it can't take itself TOO seriously. I didn't mind the way they played the original film either. But still, to me this movie as is packed a lot of unforced, Rocky Horror Picture Show-esque fun. And I think you'd have to have a sadistic side to really like the death of all humanity thing.
@itstheblueguy Tooey is pretty sadistic but he is likeable. I think thats why I like the character as a villain so much, because you can see how even you would be seduced to perform mutilations for this creature and its only in naivety that you wouldnt realise this thing was getting big and dangerous... But thats how the little demons that scream "feed me" work in real life. If you succumb to them, you get some short term satisfaction, but ultimately the beast overcomes and destroys you.
@itstheblueguy Listen to the song at the start of this clip. It remains upbeat in pars and it wasn't pointless sadness, it went with the moral of the movie.
@AEgamesFtw Sure it was. They're throwing the characters we've been following under the bus in attempt to slap us across the face with an unpleasant result and then expecting us to admire them for it. And the new level of cruel and cynical this reaches is far too big a shift in tone to be fixed by Audrey 2 staying in character. The movie is a black comedy, but this ending is just overkill on an already lame turn.
@AEgamesFtw My point proven. Nobody sides with this ending because it fits better. People just love to think they're edgy or mature for embracing the darkest option, regardless of whether there's any intelligence behind it. That was the idea behind this ending, and that's why it's nothing but a disguised failure to be creative.
@itstheblueguy Black comedy isn't black comedy without something dark happening and a story with a moral doesn't have a moral if everybody is fine at the end without consequences.
@AEgamesFtw Not sure of the point of your first claim, especially since this easily qualifies as a black comedy with either ending. And bitter repercussions as the ending has never been the one and only way to convey a moral. (If not done well, in fact, this can seem self important.) Such has often been done by ending with a display of what happens when you choose to do the right thing. You need to remeber what kind of story you're making. A Romeo and Julliet ending wouldn't fit with Grease.
@itstheblueguy My point is that throughout the movie, it should have been getting progressively dire and a happy ending is pointless in a black comedy, as the tragedy isn't sad, it's what the movie revels in.
@itstheblueguy And I like how the business person takes a section of the plant and reproduces it himself eventually causing consequences for everybody when they provide the plants with blood in their own homes.The final ending is nothing but a cop out. A much more dramatic version is here where even though audrey dies and he pays that price he attempts to reconcile at the end in the stand off with audrey jr.
@itstheblueguy Then again, perhaps I just like "too late" scenarios as I feel they tell a moral or story much more powerfully and can still contain a reconciliation or regret/understanding by some of the characters. With more effect, as they can see the true consequences of their actions. Maybe that's why I'm fond of the Flobots - Handlebars video?
@AEgamesFtw No worries. And yeah, a progressively more dire, troubled atmosphere would have tied Seymore's tragic fate in better (as well as perhaps making him more like he was before Moranis took the role) and made the harsh statement more fitting. But I also still enjoy the movie as they released it. The happy ending thing depends though, as there can still be characters you care about that must then be handled appropriately. (Movies like Heathers had happy endings.) To each his own I guess.
@itstheblueguy I thought the point of developing characters you likes for was always to make you care at the end when they die :P I mean, we're nowhere near short of feel good comedies, but as a more serious tragedy or black comedy, this movie had the potential to be something more special.
@AEgamesFtw Well, as you said, a black comedy can revel in tragic fates, as the Rocky Horror Picture Show did with its characters (who exsited to be goofy and amusing), but characters you care about can't be thrown under the bus so callously. That's more tragedy, which, if poorly fitted, annoys me more than anything. (On that note, I think we need a RHPS type movie that's still better than okay without the "show", as just a movie at home, which right there is what's special about this movie.)
You people don't get it. It's becuase we like Seymour is why this is the ending, not because we hate him. If he was a complete jerk that we wanted to see his comeuppance the message would have no RESONANCE!
Yes the plant was his escape from his destitute life, yes he was manipulated, but he still did it. He could have had Audrey 1 anyway.
I want to show this to my friends, but its so hard. "I want to show you this movie, but after an hour we have to switch to a black and white copy with no sound effects! And we can't use the DVD because this version isn't on DVD!" Its a lot harder than it sounds.
@molemanninethousand Dude, I like you and respect you. I enjoy some of your YouTube Poops and videos. But this dissing must stop. I don't hate happy endings. Some of my (other) favorite movies have them. Its just that the sad ending is what everything else in LSoH was building up to. Taking it away takes away a lot of what made it so special in the first place.
Fuck all the assholes who took this ending out. Oh no we can't let everyone die, fuck you, it doesn't have the same impact if the characters live!!!!!
@u114781 If the movie went exactly the same as the musical, the ending would have worked. But it doesn't. Because of this, Seymour is less culpable in the deaths of Orin and Mr. Mushnik, and therefore, becomes a more sympathetic character, and easier for people to call the Everyone Dies original ending BS.
Why does Seymour stick around like a retard, listening to the plant sing about how its going to kill him and destroy the world? He shoulda hi-tailed his ass out of there WAY before the show-tunes kicked in...
@Shychick52 He's taking resposibility for his actions. Seymour is the reason adrey2 got so big, so i guess he figures he should atleast try and destroy it before it causes anymore damage.
@Shychick52 Don't you see? He was determined to kill Audrey II so that the company wouldn't sell the mini-plants worldwide... he didn't care if he died, so long as the plant did. I mean, did you see him about to jump off that building!?!? Death is kinda his goal right now...

@erwin1533 i think this one ended well its just that people hated the fact that the main charaters die
aquanette123 1 year ago
@aquanette123 Actually, that's probably the main reason anyone supports this ending. Some people just like the thought going against the grain, whether it makes sense or not, and eat up these attempts at shock value without a thought. If they'd used this ending, we'd probably hear more about it being the overblown bid for melodrama that it is.
itstheblueguy 1 year ago
If they had of gone with this ending, I think it would have been better if the film ended fadeing out with Seymour's glasses. I feel it leaves more of an impact on the audience then with this darker ending of the film thats closer to the original 60's version and some of the stage plays. Anyone else agree?

If the movie had ended this way, I would've said exactly what I said at the end of the (original) "Wicker Man," which was: "...wait, seriously? That's how it's ending?" Although whereas it was actually kind of fitting with that film, I think with this film it would have been a bit of an unnecessary downer. It reminds me of that line from the MST3K episode "Merlin's Shop of Mystical Wonders."
"So in the end evil wins, Grandpa Borgnine?"
"That's right! Even your tiny soul is doomed, Billy."

I really hate that the fandom is so fucking divided over this ending. I know, this ending made the morals of the movie better/stuck to the original/etc. However, the fact that this whole thing seems to affect overall opinions of the movie is bullshit. It was a fantastically made and fun movie. Can we not all just agree on that and stop bitching about something that can never be changed?
LovelyTeddy13 1 year ago
@LovelyTeddy13 I just think it's funny that no one was really objecting to the ending they used until they found out about this one, upon which the other one is for wusses all of the sudden. People love to think that embracing anything darker or sadder or crueler somehow automatically makes them more mature or realistic or something.

@moroney1 Silly me, I guess I should have known from the film's overwhelmingly positive critical reception and massive cult following, along with the fact that the people who actually did first see this film with this ending flat out rejected it, favoring an ending more like the one they ultimately went with. Wait...

@itstheblueguy a cult classic doesnt mean its anygood, and didnt the film recieve critical acclaim for its eefects more than anythiung els. This film ughh not a patch on the musical
moroney1 1 year ago
@moroney1 First off, actually read reviews before you try to toss them out as inferior to the logic of some random guy on youtube (you). Check all the movie reviews you can find, and youll see the first thing most of them praise is the characters/performances, the comedic charm, or the songs. Siskel and Ebert also said it succeeded as a love story, with Ebert even writing that it DOESN'T "insist on its virtuoso special effects" instead focusing on being "unforced and delightful".
itstheblueguy 1 year ago 3
in the movie rick moranis made seymour too lovable to kill. he technically never murdered anyone in the film (orin overdoes on laughing gas and mushnik simply got too close to audrey 2), and this ending made it too dramatic and unfun compared to the rest of the film. in the play its a whole different thing, but killing Seymour in the movie is like killing all the characters off at the end of a Disney musical.

ceesayssorry 1 year ago
The ending they used had Seymour still having to face up to what he created while maintaining the film's up beat sense of fun. It gave a fittingly subtle parable and left saying "u can think on it as u please, hope everyone had a good time".
This one is more like "Everyone dies! Stop smiling, that's over! No blance, no attempt to stay on key, just cruel retribution. Everyone DIIESSS!!!! Suck it audience! SUCK IT"!

@itstheblueguy LOL, hey now! I love this movie. Personally I like happy endings better but....I can kinda get why this one would've been needed, it was from both the original movie (60s) and play. Overall I am one of the movie goers that would've preferred the "Creative Failure" ending.

The everyone dies one actually has a morale to it.
The new ending sort of says "You can get away with feeding people to a monster plant."
ElitevsNinja 11 months ago
@ElitevsNinja Seymore terrorized, shot at and buried alive in a death match he's fighting to right his wrongs isn't nearly morally profound enough for a semi-dark comedy? Such needs to be shoved down our throats until it comes out our ears instead?
Some have claimed this, and I'd swear it's a cover up for the fact that they enjoy the novelty of seeing the protagonists die. I bet if the dentist had been the main character and come out on top, just as evil, the same people would be in favor.
itstheblueguy 11 months ago
@itstheblueguy So you're saying it's more normal to use an ending where the guy who murdered two people for personal gain lives happily ever after makes more sense? I'm not going to deny that it's a more satisfying ending in some sense, since we get to see the monster killed, but for 90% of history no writer on earth would ever have considered NOT killing Seymour at the end. We're too spoiled on happy endings.
Brickey8 11 months ago
@Brickey8 No one tried warping it into this overblown bid for melodrama either. Sloppy happy endings are what're too common. Now people swallow anything mean and think they're smart or cool.
His crime was that he watched a sociopath kill himself and sort of helped Audrey 2 eat the guy holding a gun on him. He still risked his life, and It's a comedy, not Macbeth. And whoever's side ur on, dragging his love, the world, and the audience into it and playing it all tragic is pure self indulgence.
itstheblueguy 11 months ago
@itstheblueguy Tooey's character was always seductively brutal. It's obvious he is growing bigger and stronger and taking more control psychologically over Seymore who is his ultimate victim, being coaxed to care for the plant. I think that the movie works best as a tragic romance, and you know, it makes you hate the rest of humanity so while Seymour and Audrey dying is sad, Tooey and his sporelings' conquest of Earth bears a certain satisfaction. Fuck all of the Mushniks and sadist dentists.
trsdos 10 months ago
@trsdos If it's played more as a tragic romance, it could work, but it with subject matter like this, it can't take itself TOO seriously. I didn't mind the way they played the original film either. But still, to me this movie as is packed a lot of unforced, Rocky Horror Picture Show-esque fun. And I think you'd have to have a sadistic side to really like the death of all humanity thing.
itstheblueguy 10 months ago
@itstheblueguy Tooey is pretty sadistic but he is likeable. I think thats why I like the character as a villain so much, because you can see how even you would be seduced to perform mutilations for this creature and its only in naivety that you wouldnt realise this thing was getting big and dangerous... But thats how the little demons that scream "feed me" work in real life. If you succumb to them, you get some short term satisfaction, but ultimately the beast overcomes and destroys you.

AEgamesFtw 10 months ago
@AEgamesFtw Sure it was. They're throwing the characters we've been following under the bus in attempt to slap us across the face with an unpleasant result and then expecting us to admire them for it. And the new level of cruel and cynical this reaches is far too big a shift in tone to be fixed by Audrey 2 staying in character. The movie is a black comedy, but this ending is just overkill on an already lame turn.
itstheblueguy 10 months ago
@itstheblueguy You're wrong. The ending with the songs gives the black comedy a rougher edge and if you can't handle it you can go cry.
AEgamesFtw 10 months ago
@AEgamesFtw My point proven. Nobody sides with this ending because it fits better. People just love to think they're edgy or mature for embracing the darkest option, regardless of whether there's any intelligence behind it. That was the idea behind this ending, and that's why it's nothing but a disguised failure to be creative.
itstheblueguy 10 months ago
@itstheblueguy Black comedy isn't black comedy without something dark happening and a story with a moral doesn't have a moral if everybody is fine at the end without consequences.
AEgamesFtw 10 months ago
@AEgamesFtw Not sure of the point of your first claim, especially since this easily qualifies as a black comedy with either ending. And bitter repercussions as the ending has never been the one and only way to convey a moral. (If not done well, in fact, this can seem self important.) Such has often been done by ending with a display of what happens when you choose to do the right thing. You need to remeber what kind of story you're making. A Romeo and Julliet ending wouldn't fit with Grease.
itstheblueguy 10 months ago
@itstheblueguy My point is that throughout the movie, it should have been getting progressively dire and a happy ending is pointless in a black comedy, as the tragedy isn't sad, it's what the movie revels in.
AEgamesFtw 10 months ago
@itstheblueguy And I like how the business person takes a section of the plant and reproduces it himself eventually causing consequences for everybody when they provide the plants with blood in their own homes.The final ending is nothing but a cop out. A much more dramatic version is here where even though audrey dies and he pays that price he attempts to reconcile at the end in the stand off with audrey jr.
AEgamesFtw 10 months ago
@itstheblueguy Then again, perhaps I just like "too late" scenarios as I feel they tell a moral or story much more powerfully and can still contain a reconciliation or regret/understanding by some of the characters. With more effect, as they can see the true consequences of their actions. Maybe that's why I'm fond of the Flobots - Handlebars video?
AEgamesFtw 10 months ago
@itstheblueguy Sorry for the Three comments and giving you so much to read.
AEgamesFtw 10 months ago
@AEgamesFtw No worries. And yeah, a progressively more dire, troubled atmosphere would have tied Seymore's tragic fate in better (as well as perhaps making him more like he was before Moranis took the role) and made the harsh statement more fitting. But I also still enjoy the movie as they released it. The happy ending thing depends though, as there can still be characters you care about that must then be handled appropriately. (Movies like Heathers had happy endings.) To each his own I guess.
itstheblueguy 10 months ago
@itstheblueguy I thought the point of developing characters you likes for was always to make you care at the end when they die :P I mean, we're nowhere near short of feel good comedies, but as a more serious tragedy or black comedy, this movie had the potential to be something more special.
AEgamesFtw 10 months ago
@AEgamesFtw Well, as you said, a black comedy can revel in tragic fates, as the Rocky Horror Picture Show did with its characters (who exsited to be goofy and amusing), but characters you care about can't be thrown under the bus so callously. That's more tragedy, which, if poorly fitted, annoys me more than anything. (On that note, I think we need a RHPS type movie that's still better than okay without the "show", as just a movie at home, which right there is what's special about this movie.)
itstheblueguy 10 months ago
You people don't get it. It's becuase we like Seymour is why this is the ending, not because we hate him. If he was a complete jerk that we wanted to see his comeuppance the message would have no RESONANCE!
Yes the plant was his escape from his destitute life, yes he was manipulated, but he still did it. He could have had Audrey 1 anyway.
This is the real ending.

@u114781 If the movie went exactly the same as the musical, the ending would have worked. But it doesn't. Because of this, Seymour is less culpable in the deaths of Orin and Mr. Mushnik, and therefore, becomes a more sympathetic character, and easier for people to call the Everyone Dies original ending BS.
