A hysterical musical remake of the original Roger Corman dark comedy.

People rave about Steve Martin's cameo, but comic musicals fail because of one fundamental flaw. Comedy songs are NEVER funny.

All around great movie, cast and story. I don't know who I liked the best. Ellen Greene, who I also loved in Pushing Daisies, was fantastic. I even liked James Belushi's 5 minute role. But, I have to give it to Moranis and Martin. These two to great work together. I've seen them in this, in "Parent Hood' in "My Blue Heaven' and I hope many more movies. They just have good chemistry together. But the movie was a musical remake of the one that claims to have Jack Nicholson. Nicholson's character in the original was played by Bill Murray in this great version. Murray did a much better job, wow, did I just say that. But yes, Murray did! The music, the plant and the three singing narrating women were great. I wonder if anyone noticed that two of the women were the same lead women …
