A meek and mild floral assistant Seymour Krelborn stumbles across a new breed of plant he names “Audrey II” after his coworker crush Audrey. This foul-mouthed, R&B-singing carnivore promises unending fame and fortune to the down and out Krelborn as long as he keeps feeding it blood. Over time, though, Seymour discovers Audrey II’s out of this world origins and intent towards global domination.
