_____________________________________________________
Okay, what I'm going to do is give you the basic summary of the plot and then recount ( in greater detail) my favorite scenes. If I skip a scene that you like, mind you, I haven't seen this movie for a month and all I've to go on is the soundtrack, to remind me of the movie. If you would like it included in the summary, include a description of the scene in your post.

Brief Summary
I'm going from beginning to end very quickly.
Sweeney Todd is a barber and he had a wife named Lucy Barker.
The Judge aka: Snape ( ask me if you don't know what I mean by that) decides that Benjamin Barker's, ( Sweeney Todd's former name) wife Lucy is pretty and that he would really like to have Lucy for himself. So he sentenced Benjamin Barker for life, on a false charge. While Benjamin was gone, The Judge made a move on his wife, who by the way had a baby girl by the name of Johanna.
Well, Lucy holds out for a really long time. But then The Judge invites her to his house to " apologize" for all the injustice he has put her though. When she gets there, The Judge rapes her. Then she goes back to her apartment and drinks a bottle of arsenic.
Anyway, Benjamin escapes prison and comes back to London, only he's not the same man he used too be, he now has a totally different personality and looks completely different. He now goes by the name of Sweeney Todd. On the ship he is in the company of a young and optimistic sailor named, Anthony Hope. When the finally reach land, Sweeney leaves the optimistic sailor to his own devices and heads to Fleet Street, where he used to live.
When he gets there he meets his former windowed landlady, aka: Bellatrix Lastrange. Who then tells him what happened to his wife, then she revealed to Mr. Todd that she always had a fondness for him. After that she gives him his razors back, then he vows to kill The Judge.
Then you find out that the optimistic sailor, up to this point, has been just been wandering around London. The he spots a beautiful blonde girl in the window of The Judge's house. This is Johanna, Sweeney's now adult daughter, who has been held captive in The Judges house, since her mother drank the arsenic.
Back to Sweeney, now he has found a rival barber and totally beat him in a contest for the fastest and closet shave of which the Beadle, The Judge's assistant, aka: Peter Pettigrew was the judge of the contest.
Then two things happen, The Beadle suggest that The Judge should get a shave at Sweeney Todd's Tonsorial Parlor, so that he will be more appealing to Johanna whom he now wants to marry. ( Creepy.) Also, the " Italian" guy he beat in the contest tries to blackmail Sweeney out of half of his profits. Well, Sweeney kills the " Italian" guy and The Judge agrees to get a shave. To make a long, long, long, story short, Sweeney doesn't get a chance to kill him yet because the optimistic sailor busted in, whom The Judge hates because the optimistic sailor, is in love with Johanna also. Sweeney isn't very happy about this too say the very least. He then vows to kill everyone in London.
Then Mrs. Lovett has a great idea of what to do with the bodies. She could turn them into meat pies and sells them in her shoppe. ( Brilliant! Cough sarcasm cough) Well, they continue this for awhile. The romance between Johanna and the optimistic sailor hit's a few road blocks but no one really cares about them.
Everything ends up as Sweeney's wife was still alive, her brain was just messed up from the poison. Sweeney killed her though because she was in the way of his plan to get to The Judge and he didn't know that she was his wife. When Sweeney finds out he throws Mrs. Lovett into her own oven. Then he kneels over to his dead wife's body, then Toby comes up from behind him and kills him with his own razor.
Gasp, gasp, lol, the end.
