"Rated R: Graphic Bloody Violence". They are really pushing the blood on this one, aren't they?

Also, more audio clips available at Amazon.com: Sweeney Todd The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street Deluxe - Complete Edition: Music: Original Score.
I was telling onodrim the other day, I think it'll take more than one viewing for fans of the stage show to truly appreciate the movie on its own. Then again, perhaps if I find out enough about all the changes and get used to them before seeing the movie maybe I'll be sufficiently prepared.

I listened to the clips on Amazon...now I can definitely see what you mean regarding a lack of edge. The clip from "Epiphany" was especially interesting...I really expected it to be much more angry than it was.
