  • Washington Irving's tale of Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman gets a few new twists in a screen adaptation directed by Tim Burton. In this version, Ichabod (Johnny Depp) is a New York City detective whose unorthodox techniques and penchant for gadgets make him unpopular with is colleagues. He is sent to the remote town of Sleepy Hollow to investigate a series of bizarre murders, in which a number of people have been found dead in the woods, with their heads cut off. Local legend has it that a Hessian ghost rides through the woods on horseback, lopping off the heads of the unsuspecting and unbelieving. Ichabod refuses to believe in this legend, convinced that there must be a logical explanation for the murders. In time, Ichabod becomes smitten with a local lass, Katrina Van Tassel (Christina Ricci), who is the sweetheart of the burly Brom Bones (Casper Van Dien), and he becomes determined to capture the murderer to prove his bravery and win her heart. Christopher Walken, Jeffrey Jones, and Christopher Lee highlight the supporting cast; Lee's appearance is particularly apt, since Burton has cited the Hammer films of the 1960s as a major influence in making this film. Andrew Kevin Walker and Tom Stoppard contributed to the screenplay. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

      Ya know you put blood, sweat, tears and your soul even in building a set outdoors and then have it just demolished after wrapping up the film when the village of sleepy hollow in the countryside of England is a beautiful masterpiece of a set. They should a kept it up and have be of use for tourist attraction or somethin.

    It’s the best Tim Burton movie to this day. Everything about it is amazing, the casting, the visual effects, the realism, the screenplay, the ambiguity with all the characters and overall it’s in the art direction. Best halloween movie, and one of the best horror/thriller/action movie ever made. Its scary at times but fascinating to watch the wrath of the horseman going. Its a masterpiece like no other from the beginning to the end.
    Watched it long ago and didnt feel that it was that awesome, but i watched it back a couple of days ago, i forgot everything about this movie since the first watch and on the second one i truly felt it.
    Down right incredible work.

    Tim Burton has inspired me since I was a little kid. He basically showed me it was okay to be a little strange because that means you can see something no one else can. Me and my mom would watch this movie all the time before she passed away, it was our thing. I have stories, movie ideas, and tons of concept art that I hope to pitch one day. Thank you so much Mr. Burton.

      I know, I'm still amazed at the perfect combination of minimal CGI and practical effects. I love the scene when the horsemen jumps out of the tree, I mean it's so flawless and seamless. And also how they added digitally the collar to the horsemen which again looks seamless, I would not even know it was CGI until I watched the behind the scenes. this was also right around the time that I feel CGI was just starting to take off especially with Star wars that year. However in today's world, I think we've got to the point where CGI is is used as a crutch now and it cheapens every single movie. This is why I tend to go back to older films.

    Ichabod Crane from Legend of Sleepy Hollow:A schoolteacher.
    Ichabod Crane from the 1999 Sleepy Hollow: a constable who is investigating murders.

I get that you got to have permission from an adult to let you watch these movies but there are the younger ones that are too little to watch something like this or it could affect them.
