BLOODTHIRSTY BUTCHERS

Andy Milligan, USA, 1970, Films Around the World, Horror

“I greatly prefer Andy Milligan's version of Sweeney Todd to Tim Burton’s.”
— Amy Searles, LETTERBOXD

An adaptation of the Sweeney Todd story from Dimension X, BLOODTHIRSTY BUTCHERS is an outrageous blast of horror dementia from legendary queer filmmaker Andy Milligan. A murderous barber named Sweeney Todd plies his trade with a straight razor and gives the bodies to the local bakery. And that’s how fingers, breasts, and other body parts end up baked to order in delicious pies! Like any movie bearing the name of Andy Milligan, BLOODTHIRSTY BUTCHERS features DIY costumes, lots of yelling, incredible ingenuity, and violence of both the physical and spiritual kind.
