This is the 1 film I can't wait to see Christmas Day!!
The Broadway roadshow of "Sweeney Todd" is coming to Phoenix in 04/2008 & I have alreay bought tickets to see the show live on stage.
The film version looks wicked, & really good. Only in the hands of Tim Burton could this be brought to the screen. I'm still skeptical on Johnny Depp's singing.
