Drinking Games: Sweeney Todd

Posted by Kevin Carr (kevin@filmschoolrejects.com) on December 22, 2007

The Demon Barber of Fleet Street is on his way into the cineplexes, and he’s ready to kill. It’s time to sit back, relax and eat a fine meat pie while watching Tim Burton’s Sweeney Todd.

But what to drink during the film! That, of course, is your choice, but we can provide you with some suggestions as to when you should drink. Enjoy this game, and quite possibly this grim musical could become a comedy.

And now, to cover our butts… This game is only for people over the age of 21. Please drink responsibly, and don’t get a shave from a guy who owns a shop above a meat-pie factory.

TAKE A DRINK WHENEVER…
Someone starts singing a new song (or a reprise)
Song lyrics contain swear words
Someone eats or drinks
Someone is killed

TAKE A DRINK WHEN YOU SEE…
Blood
Bright colors
A razor blade
Sacha Baron Cohen’s bulge through his pants

TAKE A DRINK WHEN SOMEONE SAYS (OR SINGS)
“Sweeney” or “Todd”
“Joanna”
“judge”
“shave”

CHUG YOUR DRINK WHENEVER…
Someone is killed without the assistance of a razor blade

I totally just tried it, but with koolaid cause I'm all ghetto, but man, i drank nearly a litre of that stuff and I skipped most of the names and stopped drinking at the Johanna song. There needs to be a lite version for people who don't want to pass out before the movie is half over.

I tried doing this with Coke to 'Johanna', just to test it out (since it looks lethal). Turns out it is. I got through almost an entire can in that one song. God help anyone who actually tries this. I hope you have health insurance :)

Everyone should drink bloody mary's when they see blood. I'll have to try it now.
