beautifully dark

Rating: 10/10 (20 November 1999)

Tim Burton holds strong to his style of cult horror and very dark cinematography. The story strayed from the old version, i.e. Ichabod is a detective not a schoolteacher, but that really doesn't hurt the movie. This movie has to at least be nominated for special effects, production design, and cinematography. I was amazed by Burton's use of color. If you've liked Burton's other films you should get kick out of this one. I give it an A.
