One of the best looking horror film in years

Rating: 8/10 (18 February 2015)

What a beautiful movie to look at, it's gorgeous, Tim Burton's vision of Washington Irving's tale feels alive!
'Sleepy Hollow' is the new incarnation of hammer horror, a genre long gone, and Burton is able to get the exact point that made the hammer horror films so unique. The plot is about Ichabod Crane (Johnny Depp), a constable who moves to the town of Sleepy Hollow to solve a series of murders that have been happening there, all murders with the same M.O., their heads removed from their bodies.
The screenplay is very based on the hammer style of filmmaking, it is very different from the book, confused, and well... It seems like a Scooby-Doo episode, but that is not entirely bad, the movie still haves a very good conclusion and feels complete.
'Sleepy Hollow' may not be what you think you'll get, but it is no doubt a very good film!
