Meat Pies And A Free Shave?

Stephen Sondheim is a genius! The original theatre musical was a tragic comedy performed by brilliant artists like Len Cariou and Angela Lansbury (Voice, Mrs. Potts Disney's Beauty & the Beast). Tim Burton made a different flavor. Now it's gloomier, more serious and bloody not to mention Mrs. Lovett's (played by Helena Bonham Carter-Bellatrix Lestrange, Harry Potter & The Order Of The Phoenix) meat pies made out of human remains was a craze in Fleet Street! We get to hear the bewitching symphonies and Johnny Depp's performance as the demon barber, Sweeney Todd/Benjamin Barker. Also, Alan Rickman (Severus Snape, Harry Potter), the corrupt Judge Turpin made a career in music! LOL. He won't be running for the post of Defense of the Dark Arts teacher this time. :D It's man devouring men in here so you'll be expecting more blood, one of the best visual effects ever featured in musical movies. But I suggest the parents have to wait till their kids are in bed not unless you want to stay up late for them.
