I can see why there are a decent number of ISFP votes because, in the small part of his life that we’re directly presented with in the narrative, there’s limited evidence of Ne. He also seems to be somewhat impulsive. However, it’s worth noting that he’s actually fairly good at controlling those impulses, and they stem more from an Fi sense of having been morally wronged. I’d argue that in stepping back and observing his entire character, he’s more consistent with an INFP archetype. At the outset, we receive his and Anthony’s (also, I’d argue, an INFP) views of London, both expressing contrasting generalisations of it. Sweeney’s is that ‘There's a hole in the world like a great black pit / And the vermin of the world inhabit it / And its morals aren't worth what a pig could spit / And it goes by the name of London. / At the top of the hole sit a privileged few / Making mock of the vermin in the lower zoo / Turning beauty into filth and greed’. This is not only highly metaphorical in the way that it’s expressed, but paints the city in broad strokes (Ne). This view informs everything that follows. He doesn’t have a plan apart from to return to his home, caught up in an idealised past that he seeks to recover (tertiary Si over Ni). Mrs Lovett tries to bring him into touch with present external reality, to take notice of the world around him, but throughout he remains lost in his thoughts and attached to a past ideal; this suggests Se blind spot rather than auxiliary Se, as well as Fi-Ne. He wants vengeance on Turpin but makes no plan toward it; he doesn’t actively seek him out, and his initial chance at murdering him is entirely due to lucky circumstance. When he finally settles on something resembling a plan - essentially, to kill everyone - this is an instance of abstracting the situation, taking a singular traumatic event to mean that, abstractly, all people theoretically deserve to die, because they’re all horrible. However, he has no distinct plan for how to carry this out; Mrs Lovett brings him back to reality by reminding him that they need to deal with the man he’s already killed, as well as the bodies of any subsequent murders. Sweeney is ultimately unable to pull himself out of the idealised past he inhabits; this is best encapsulated in the ‘By the Sea’ sequence, but is also driven home when Mrs Lovett asks him if he can even remember what Lucy looked like, and he responds by remarking that she ‘had yellow hair’. This is an incredibly vague detail, reminding us that he’s attached to the idea of her and has become unhealthily absorbed by that idea. He’s so lost in his own mind and thoughts, so detached from immediate external reality, that he doesn’t initially recognise her when he encounters her, with tragic consequences, and it doesn’t even occur to him that the ‘boy’ hidden in his chest is Joanna, despite knowing Joanna was due to be brought there. I’d argue that Anthony, as a fellow INFP, represents a younger, more idealistic version of Benjamin Barker. The only hope of the story is the possibility that his idealism won’t be similarly quashed. In any case, Sweeney Todd is a great example of an INFP villain, something that’s unfortunately rare.

The intentionally sympathetic Villain Protagonist. He was born Benjamin Barker and used to be married to Lucy, before Judge Turpin sent him to Australia on a false charge, raped his wife, and adopted his daughter. When he comes back, he has gone completely insane, seeking bloody revenge on Turpin — and later, everyone in London.
