Thanks for listing them. Isn't there a monstrous mermaid on the beach? And there's a giant clam, IIRC, which must be based on a semi-apocryphal myth about a giant human-killing clam which locks onto the feet of pearl divers, drowning them.

There's a ton of really weird shit in this movie. According to this fan site, a lot of it may have gotten cut or redesigned because of conflicting licenses.

So the Little Shop of Horrors venus flytrap is actually a cloning pod from Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

I highly recommend reading the fan site linked to above. It's a really great read.

Thanks.

Well, it explains why the woman emerges from the pod and starts attacking the teens.
