I sense a pattern here...

I'm tempted to see Sweeney Todd again, after first digging out my copy of Alferd Packer: the Musical (by Trey Parker, of South Park fame); are there any other musicals about cannibalism I've forgotten...? (I may even rent Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death, nonmusical though it is, simply for the title.)

(ETA: Experimental filmmaker Stan Brakhage was in Alfred Packer? How'd that happen?)

Sweeney was better then I thought. :) Most of my friends that enjoy Cannibal love Sweeney.

I love Alferd Packer! I didn't know it's proper name, I watched it years ago at an Ex's house, and now I know I'm gonna try and get hold of a copy! Thank you!

Enjoy! (It's usually sold under the title Cannibal! the Musical, FYI.)

I LOVE LOVE that movie. My friend has been borrowing it for a year or two. I need to get it back!

I have "Cannibal! The Musical!" on DVD as well :) I don't think it's called "Alfred Packer"

"Fudge, Packer?"

LOL

My favorite thing about that musical is the commentary.

Nope; "Alferd Packer" was Trey Parker's preferred title; when Lloyd Kaufman (of Troma fame) agreed to distribute the movie, he got Parker to change it to "Cannibal", as no one outside of Colorado was likely to know who Packer was. Man- in "By the Sea", Depp and Carter really do look like the White Stripes (http://360digest.com/wp-content/uploads/WhiteStripes.jpg) to me :)
