Sorry people- this one sucked!

Rating: 3/10 (27 July 2000)

After reading many positive comments and only one negative I found myself just having to let people know how poor this movie was. Basically just a fancy, dressed up slasher movie this ghastly film is disturbing in a way that surprised me. I have not read Washington Irving's story, but I can't imagine that it was meant to be just a brainless gore fest with one head after another gruesomely chopped off. I thought the acting was mediocre and Depp's performance was quite odd. Yes, the visual style was appealing, which is why I gave this movie a 3 instead of a 1. Watch this one if you're up for a disgusting mess that is only marginally funny at times.
