       πŸ¦–#MONSTERDON 🎞️      πŸ›οΈ   LIITLE SHOP OF TRIVIA 🌷🦷 This movie was famously made for under $30,000 (according to Corman) with primary shooting taking two days and one night.Really, though, there were reshoots later and Charles Griffith and Mel Welles had interesting adventures doing exterior shoots, spending $1,100 on 15 minutes worth of exteriors. (Stay tuned to this trivia thread for details)#LittleShopOfHorrors1960

       πŸ¦–#MONSTERDON 🎞️      πŸ›οΈ   LITTLE SHOP OF TRIVIA 🌷🦷 Soundtrack sound familiar? Composer Fred Katz sold to Roger Corman the same score for seven films, including Bucket of Blood and Monsterdon unfavorite The Wasp Woman. Katz had a music editor repurpose segments of previous scores for each request. #LittleShopOfHorrors1960

       πŸ¦–#MONSTERDON 🎞️     πŸ›οΈ   LITTLE SHOP OF TRIVIA 🌷🦷 😠 The voice and plant movement are out of syncScriptwriter Griffith voiced Audry Jr's voice as a reference to the actors. Another actor's voice was to be added in post, probably more in sync. Probably.But Griffith simulated the voice of a TV show puppet dog that also did Nestle's Quick commercials and this got laughs, so Corman kept it in - to save more money.#LittleShopOfHorrors1960

The footage was run backwards for the film to make it look like the train was about to run over the actor.#LittleShopOfHorrors1960

       πŸ¦–#MONSTERDON 🎞️     πŸ›οΈ   LITTLE SHOP OF TRIVIA 🌷🦷 Jack Nicholson said that Corman really didn't want him in the film, so he just went for it in his part.Jack said that they practiced the scene a little outside, then immediately went in to film. The lights were turned on and soon Haze (Seymour Krelboined) was pulling his teeth. Just before the end, Haze knocked over the lights, Corman caught them and then said "cut, move on to next scene". They never really finished that scene.
