HORROR: Sleepy Hollow
REVIEWER: Shane Gavin
RATING:A+
REVIEW:
Okay this is a retelling of "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow",
not exactly a direct adaption but blatantly BURTON BRILLIANT.
The story line is simple enouvh Ichabod (Johnny Depp) is on the trail
of a murderer, who happens to be a Headless Horseman. However expect to
come across more than just heads rolling, there is a bit of witch craft
thrown in for good measure.
Burton keeps all his finky stylings in this film.. His use of SNOW,
his love of setting things near christmas (NEW YEAR), the only thing missing
was the mutilated dog. The film contians some of the best FX you will see
in the makeup department, some of the best Heads that you have ever seen.
The film keeps you on edge and really keeps you guessing like no other
previous Burton film. Sit back and enjoy type cinema.
Any Burton film will be mad to miss it.
A+
