Say You'll Haunt Me

Rating: 8/10 (13 June 2014)

Since Brazilian's main channel television used to exhibit this movie like always, I always wanted to give it a chance, but I felt I was too young to watch it by myself. Yea, I was a scared child. "Sleepy Hollow" shows, from the get go, how mysterious and cartoonish it will be. Johnny Deep, who I felt much like Jim Carrey, plays an eccentric police officer that needs to investigate the murderers in a small community, and as you can imagine, things aren't that easy. For some moments, I was capable to relate the story with some Scooby Doo's, except for the more mature version of the "horror elements". There is a great soundtrack that fits well in every moment it's utilized, proving that filmmakers were professional at producing it. The photography and overall directing are also GREAT, reflecting a big moment in Tim Burton's career. It's just very dark like some of his older works, like "Batman" and "The Nightmare Before Christmas". The outcome is reasonable and somehow unpredictable-- at least for me and for Mr. Crane haha. It's just not better because it doesn't want to be taken seriously, otherwise it could've still been better. Definitely recommended, unless you feel like you're too old to enjoy innocent stories.
