I saw Sweeney Todd on Broadway and it was amazing. I think it might be impossible to replicate the feeling of having it performed on a fixed stage with only a few actors. But Tim Burton did a pretty good job in transforming it into a movie. He was able to keep the ‘gore’ factor low by using theatrically colored blood so that helped to not freak me out. Heh.

I fell in love with Johnny Depp all over again.
