The Good, The Bad and The Remake: Movie Podcast
TV & Film:Film Reviews
For our second foray into the mixed bag of remakes, Neal, Catherine and Ben are weighing up the relative virtues of the two film versions of Little Shop of Horrors - the first a micro-budget Roger Corman b-movie from 1960; the second a big budget musical from Yoda himself, Frank Oz, from 1986.
One was shot in under a week with the pocket change of those involved with an early role for Jack Nicholson, the other is packed with songs from Al Menken, who went on to write songs for the Disney classics in the 90s, and features Rick Moranis, Steve Martin, John Candy, Bill Murray, Jim Belushi and Christopher Guest.
But will the remake justify its existence enough to avoid the dreaded Unmake branding of GBR? Will it rise to achieve the Remazing badge? Or, is it just an Agreemake, neither one thing nor the other.
We want your feedback, 3-word reviews and suggestions for any other films that have been remade, so find us in these places:
