I saw most of Sweeny Todd when BBC1 screened it one evening just after New Year 2006. I missed the last half-hour or so though, but I got to know how it ended.
A load of grizzly murders are the responsibility of Sweeny Todd aka The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. We get to see him slashing people's throats and cutting his victims up. He then gives the parts to the local bakery to have pies made, so a bit of cannibalism thrown in. His victims include his lover. Police find out about this at the end though.
The cast includes Ray Winstone, who is excellent as Sweeny Todd and he is joined by David Warner (Titanic, Time Bandits), Tom Hardy and David Bradley.
At least my barber is not like this one! Watch this if you dare. Excellent and wonderfully gory in parts.
Rating: 4 stars out of 5.
