Burton on Blood in “Sweeney Todd”
Tim Burton has indicated that the highly stylized use of blood in Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street was crucial to the story. He said he left that heads of DreamWorks and Warner Bros. know that “blood is part of the production” as soon as proposed by his desire to make the film version of the musical.
Speaking of his first meeting, he said: “It’s an incredible thing [is said]: ‘You are going to do a musical with R rated non-professional singers, with a lot of blood, about a serial murderer and cannibalism” and Go “Well!”. That is unheard of, I have never had that happen in my life before. “The filmmaker added that the fake blood used for the film is orange, sticky, and strangely sweet.” It was our own special recipe, very sticky, very sweet and burning eyes. “
The young Ed Sanders, who plays Toby, in the film, also gave his opinion about the unrealistic gore in the film: “To begin with, [that] was orange, and you can see that in reality pumping through pipelines across the People to the killing of necks. “
Good for the movie stars Johnny Depp, who revealed that he is squeamish to see blood.
