Sweeney Todd - Burton and Depp’s New Flick

November 1, 2007

Tim Burton’s new movie Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, stars none other than Johny Depp and looks promisingly violent. For those of you who don’t know, and I don’t blame you, Sweeney Todd is originally a Broadway musical. The story is about Sweeney Todd, a barber in London who murders people as they get their hair cut.
It is set to come out December 21st. I guess it is still a musical, so that might suck a little. Hopefully there is more killing and less singing.
