Burton's finest to date!

Rating: 10/10 (6 January 2000)

I've just seen Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow at the first Swiss press screening and I'm absolutely delighted by this thoroughly stylish movie. I can hardly wait until it.
In Sleepy Hollow, Burton combined all his skills to create an original, though classic blend of horror, fairy tale and even fantasy. But it is undoubtedly a work mainly for adults, in contrast to some of his earlier films (e.g. Batman, Mars Attacks). There are quite many gory scenes that also make this film great fun for Splatter freaks (I proudly admit that I am one). Sleepy Hollow delivers and kicks other recent horror films you know where (especially the terribly overrated The Sixth Sense).
NOT TO BE MISSED! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
