![]() ![]() It also had the ability to make sucking noises, as a way to tell Seymour it was thirsty. In infancy, Audrey II didn’t have the ability to speak (or, at least, was so malnourished that it did not have the strength) but had the ability to move around its' mouth in and slightly move its' body. In the original ending, it was said thousands of them were sold, but it’s unknown how many survived into adulthood. What is known is that at least two of the alien plants were on Earth in the theatrical ending, where Audrey II and a smaller alien plant in Seymour and Audrey's garden lawn at the end of the movie. The film has never explained any of the alien race which Audrey II is a species of, yet Seymour thought of the plant as a type of Venus Flytrap. ![]() It could be speculated that the eclipse was caused by Audrey II's spacecraft of some kind. How the plant came to earth isn’t completely understood, but it’s known that it came to the planet through an eclipse of the sun and an unworldly strike of green "lightning". This is presumed on account of the ending of the movie where hidden in the happy, little garden in the front lawn of Seymour and Audrey's new home, is a new, baby-like version of Audrey II that gives a wicked, "I'll be back" smile to the audience before the end credits roll.Īudrey II, slightly bigger than its infant form.Īccording to a behind the scenes interview, Audrey II is from a planet of carnivorous plants who are sent to different planets to destroy them in the way Audrey II intended. With Audrey II and its newly blossomed buds (who work as back-up singers during Audrey II's song in the show-down, Mean Green Mother From Outer Space) being fried alive from the electrical wires, the plant exclaimed a surprised "Oh shit!" before exploding into green-blue atoms that are presumed to be seeds or re-generating plant spores.

Audrey II then consumed Seymour after destroying the shop, and shortly after, its leaves were sold all across America which resulted in similar situations that happened to Seymour (tricking innocent people into feeding their plants people) and eventually, the plants (after reaching a massive size) attacked and are seen destroying cities and eating people whole all over the world. Seymour didn’t save Audrey in time and unwillingly, yet on her dying wishes, fed her to the blood hungry plant. ![]() Mushnik, his boss (who later adopts him before dying) for food.Īudrey II (now enormous) called Audrey, Seymour's lifelong crush on the payphone and convinced her to come over to the shop only to eat her.
