One and a half hours of freaky, scary nonsense set to a killer doo-wop soundtrack.

You can try not liking this adaptation of the Off-Broadway musical hit -- it has no polish and a pushy way with a gag -- but the movie sneaks up on you, about as subtly as Audrey II.

Top Critic A fractured, funny production transported rather reluctantly from the stage to the screen.

Top Critic For all its expensive excess, fails to recapture the spirit of the original.

Oz was no doubt hired to handle the plant monster puppet, but his brisk, lightweight direction spreads satisfyingly across the entire movie.

The offbeat nature of the story, the wayward characters and the forgettable musical numbers make the film unappealing in every way.
