I've been reading a little about one of the next big musicals coming to the big screen, and have to admit that I'm not-so-secretly fascinated by what's in the works. Here are a few of the ingredients:
- Johnny Depp...singing!
- Tim Burton directing (which means that no matter what, it will be visually amazing)
- Borat (Sacha Baron Cohen)
- Snape (Alan Rickman)
- Stephen Sondheim's music
Yes, I'm talking about
Sweeney Todd, the one about the murderous barber. Tim Burton tends to go over the top sometimes, especially when it involves blood (
Sleepy Hollow, anyone?), so I'm guessing this will be a pretty gruesome movie (likely an R-rating). All I've seen is a poster, and it admittedly looks very creepy. But seriously, do we have to go over the above list again? Click
here to see a bigger version of the disgustingly-perfect poster, and tell me you're not just a little intrigued...

I've read and seen the play. It's creepy all on it's own.
Kristin: Creepy = good? Did you like it?
Love, Love, Loved!!!
We saw it at the ampitheatre at the mental hospital in Provo. It was Halloween, cold and dark. There couldn't have been a better setting for a messed up play. It was pretty creepy, didn't leave us with a good feeling after we saw it.
Totally intrigued!!
Everyone knows I heart Johnny Depp. And the Tim Burton/Johnny Depp combo is always a treat. I'm a little sensitive to blood and gore though, so we'll see how this one turns out. I think Tim Burton is freaky and amazing.
