Sleepy Hollow - (Tim Burton;1999;USA) -
Icabod Crane is sent to Sleepy Hollow to investigate a series of beheadings, supposedly the work of a headless Hessian mercenary.
Burton could've done better with this film, but it still comes out to be a pretty good film mostly due to the atmosphere. Burton creates a wonderful portrayal of Sleepy Hollow. At times it may feel too conventional but Burton's direction and Depp's acting make up for a lot. Christopher Walken as the Headless Horseman is however, the most memorable character in this film. I'd say in fact he's one of the most memorable characters in modern horror. It reminds me of a more barbaric look to his character of Mayor Schreck in Batman Returns.
