I was pleasantly surprised to view another of his early performances. Little shop Of Horrors. (1960)
A simple little horror flick that delivers humor rather than horror. This movie features an exotic cross-breeded man-eating plant in an impoverished flower shop on the cheap side of town.

Jack's character, a harmless but happy little maniac who loves pain, goes to see a deranged dentist, hoping to receive as much pain as possible. Naturally, the dentist gets fed to the plant. But not before Jack's character receives all the pain he could have hoped for and leaves the dentists' office a happy customer. Just a short excerpt of the movie. But this was a good scene.

A low budget, flawed but fun movie. There was a 1987 remake of this movie,.... but they turned it into a musical. I'm not convinced that the remake succeeds as well as did the original.
