'Sweeney Todd - The Demon Barber of Fleet Street' I watched this movie with my mum the other day and I have to admit I was really scared!
The film is set in the 19th century and Sweeney Todd has arrived in London along with others, including a sailor. The plot basically is that Fifteen years ago, Sweeney was a barber, married to his wife when a corrupt Judge set his fancied his wife and had Benjamin arrested and sent off to prison. Now seeking revenge, Sweeney sets up shop above the restaurant where his former landlady, the worst meat pies in town. Learning that Turpin has his now grown-up daughter locked away. Sweeney decides to lure the judge into his barbershop and slit his throat with one of his rusty razors to get revenge. The judge gets away the first time Sweeney sees hm but takes his anger out on other vctims by slittingtheir throats, You then see the woman cutting up the remans to put in her pies!
With Turpin determined to marry the horrified Johanna, Sweeney waits for his next chance to get the judge in his barber's chair to get his revenge on him.
The whole movie is basically a flashback of the past, which is Sweeney getting revenge. On each murder there is a negative effects with a razor blade sound. Also the film hasn't got vibrant coulour which I noticed, it's all very dull which is similar to our film as it's shot at night mode.
This is such a good effect which would go well with our film! This was exactly the type of flashback I was thinking for our movie!
