well anyway, the basic plot of the movie is that there is this guy, Benjamin Barker, who is living a happy life with his wife and daughter, then this judge puts him in prison and takes away his family. consequently, he goes insane, becomes a barber, and starts slitting his customer's throats. he also has an accomplice named Mrs. Lovett who bakes the people he murders into meat pies. i know, i know, gory, but it still seems like a good movie. unfortunately for me, the movie is rated R for graphic bloody violence *sob* ah well, maybe my mom will still let me go to it. here's links to my 2 favorite songs from the movie (so far). they're called "a little priest" and "epiphany".

i know some people say that the new movie looks like a piece of junk and that the old one is way better, but this one looks pretty good to me. sure i'm no diehard sweeney fan, but it doesn't seem like it messes too much up. but who am i to say, eh? and just cuz i feel like it, here's a pic from the movie:
the website of the movie is www.sweeneytoddmovie.com

I think Sweeney Todd went to Broadway a few years ago. Yeah, talk about gory, eh? What sicko dreamed this up? But yeah...it still does sound interesting in a twisted way.
Don't listen to Matt. Psychadelic Daruma forever. Oh, but I think Orange Feel has serious potential.
Hanukkah!!! Yay!!!
yah, it is (was) a Broadway musical. I think it's actually based on an actual murderer, but they romanticized his story a bit. It seems gory, but that sort of movie probably won't be very good if they don't include the violence.
Matt is such a liar. Psychedelic Daruma is the best. But then again....Orange Feel does sound pretty nifty.
Happy Hanukkah! Thanks for the card I love it :D
I LOVE YOU ALISON!!
