It is very bloody, but it isn't realistic. It looks like paint or old fashioned horror movie blood. I took someone with me who had blood issues the third time I went, and she was fine. The prop department on this film is amazing and the bodies are rather real looking, however that is combined with old school horror movie blood, so they almost cancel each other out.
The pies just show unused extremities. All the meat has already been ground and looks like you would expect it to for no one to suspect. (The grossest is in the beginning and is neither human nor cat.)
The hardest part if she doesn't do gore too well will be the last scene, but by that point, you would probably be so wrapped up in the plot that it'll become just another part of the scene.

Jesus titty-f*cking Christ!

How many times is this question gonna be asked?

reeeeeeeeally blooddddy soooo good tho! one of my favS!

There's a lot of blood, but Tim Burton purposely kept the killing and blood fake-looking so he could have it look as if you're watching a stage production. It's not so bad after awhile, and then it just becomes humorous.

Edit: Tim Burton has said himself that he wanted to keep the blood looking fake, almost Kill Bill-style. He also wanted a big contrast between the dark and gloomy setting of victorian london and the bright red blood. And yes, it IS supposed to be humorous, which is why it's called a dark comedy.

It's pretty bloody, but the blood to me looks really fake, so I wasn't really grossed out by it. Plus, you always pretty much know when it's coming, so you have time to cover your eyes if you want to.

really bad, but its the best fil ever in the whole wide world xx

yes very, its good if you don't mind plenty of throat slitting

It is pretty gory. I disagree that it looks very fake, I think it can be seen that way but simply because it's not something we're used to seeing every day! I would also disagree with the comment that it becomes humourous - far from it!

Please don't let the gore put you off - I'm a 15 year old girl who's not got a particularly high tolerance for all things disgusting, but I think it's a fantastic film. Johnny Depp is amazing, Helena Bonham Carter isn't as good, but Johnny pulls her up, and towards the end of the film her singing seems to get better. The casting is wonderful, and with Tim Burton as director could it be anything but a success?!

Go and see it - you won't regret it!

I mean...its not as nearly as bad as something like Saw...its a musical for christs sake. Not too bad. If ur older then 12 ull be fine.

It's bloody, yes it is. Especially the first time you see it. But I'm telling you right now, where you see the most blood is during a heartfelt, calming song, so it'll end up being funny. not to mention it's too fakey! haha

But yeah, the storyline is really worth the blood, so in the end, I think you should see it. It's not BLOOD BLOOD BLOOD every second of the movie, so you're okay with that...

Hope you like the movie! ^_^

I haven't seen it, but I heard Johnny Depp sings in it.
That sounds pretty gruesome to me.

I'll still probably go see it.
Even though Johnny can't sing, I still like his and Burtons movies.

its not tht bad....butt it dependss how you find things like tht...if u like them or not? or ur girlfriend?! basically once youve seen the first youve seen them all :)

Its not really gruesome, just very bloody. In comparison to most of the horror films that come out, its quite mild. I think you should definately go see it. Its got to be one of the best films Ive seen in a long time

gorey

The film was a load of crap with not alot of gore,why they gave it an 18 cert is beyond me,if you like musical's this film is for you
