Plot – Accused of a crime he didn't commit, Benjamin Barker is imprisoned overseas. The man swears revenge for the injustice and especially for the disastrous consequences his arrest has had on his family. Escaped from prison, Barker comes back to London and, under the name of Sweeney Todd, opens a barber shop above the infamous Mrs. Lovett shop pies. With her help, Sweeney Todd tries to take revenge on those who accused and imprisoned him long ago. Judge Turpin is the first one on his way and he's now the legal guardian of Joanna, Todd's daughter.
