Little Shop of Horrors: The Director's Cut (US Import)

It's just a mean green mother from outer space and now its invading Blu-ray...

Fans of Frank Oz's blackly comic musical about a man-eating plant are well-served by this recent region-free US Blu-ray release. Not only do the (authentically grainy) AVC 1.78:1 1080p encode and remixed DTS-HD MA 5.1 audio make it look and sound better than ever, but the disc also includes the option to watch the 'Director's Cut' of the film which features a meticulous restoration of the original downbeat - and somewhat more spectacular - finale. Also included on the disc are a director's commentary (plus a separate chat-track for the alternate ending), two retrospective featurettes, outtakes and deleted scenes and two trailers.
