Burton strikes back!

Rating: 10/10 (6 March 2000)

I think that "Sleepy Hollow" is one of the best movies of the year. THIS is a scary movie not "The Blair Witch Project". There's a strange atmosphere in this movie, I think it's a perfect "Halloween Movie" with mystery, death, fear and a splendid art direction. The tribute of Burton to Hammer is perfect, because it respects the rules of the good horror movie "Not blood but fear. Not screams but subtle terror". It is perfect with a great Johnny Depp and an evil(fantastic her final monologue)Miranda Richardson (she deserved and Oscar nomination). Great cameo by Martin Landau. I hope that the 3 nominations will become 3 Oscars. You know, I think that Jack O' Lantern isn't a legend. It works in Hollywood and his name is Tim Burton. I'm right, do you agree?
