Sweeney Todd Clip

The scary music shows that it is a horror film from the start, so the genre is easily seen by the audience. The atmosphere is established through life, it is dark and gloomy, and the only thing that is visibly seen and that stands out is the blood. The 'journey of blood' is all that is in the 2 minute clip, but it is still effective, possibly even more so, because you see where it starts and where it ends up. No characters are introduced throughout the clip which is quite original, the only one out of all three with no introductions of characters within the first 2 minutes. The first part looks animated, or CGI, which makes the audience think that it is an animated film, however, after watching past that clip they would see that it is not. There is a stylish use of credits (title sequence) which displays the themes of the film well.
