Actually, this film & Little Shop were shot back-to-back, with this movie coming first. You'll notice the same sets being used. Excellent little black comedy, shot in just five days.

It's essentially the same movie as "Little Shop," but it takes place in the art world and Dick Miller's making statues to impress a girl instead of growing a giant plant. You even have the shop proprietor letting him get away with his nefarious deeds in order for the shop to make extra cash.



Dick Miller's great in it, and the plot and pacing are snappier than "Little Shop." It probably cost Roger Corman $23.53 to make this, but it turned out well.
