Original Ending for "Little Shop of Horrors" Revealed!

The movie adaptation of the off Broadway hit musical has made it's way up the cult classic ladder over the years, but even die hard fans are in for a treat with the recent release of the Blu-ray director's cut which features the original ending to the film. The movie, which around a nerdy florist whose life begins looking up with the help of a man eating plant from outer space, originally had a much bleaker ending than what appeared in the theatrical release. The original ending was scrapped completely after test audiences complained about the negative ending. The much darker alternate ending features Audrey II eating Seymour and Audrey and then spawning sister plants and destroying New York City. I must admit, seeing the original ending in color with completed sound effects is pretty great, but I'm still a huge fan of the theatrical (and much happier!) ending. What do you think?
