Sweeny Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
I'm not a huge fan of the underlying musical (I don't think the words fit the tune properly in a good half of the songs), but this is an exceptionally good film. So long as you're okay with an almost comic amount of gore, there's good acting, some beautiful imagery, and a really good sense of weirdness. And it has both Johnny Depp and Alan Rickman in it, so it's got to be good...

(I went to the cinema today for the first time in a good two and a half years or so.)
