Sleepy Hollow

FantasyHorrorMysteryThriller105 min

Skeptical New York constable Ichabod Crane is sent to the hamlet of Sleepy Hollow to investigate a string of decapitations that locals blame on the Headless Horseman. Johnny Depp is Ichabod, an uneasy outsider whose skepticism clashes with a town ruled by rumor, grief, and old power. As he digs into the killings, he finds an ally in Christina Ricci's Katrina Van Tassel, the daughter of one of Sleepy Hollow's leading families. Tim Burton turns the Washington Irving legend into a gothic murder mystery, layering the case with superstition, bloodshed, and the looming figure of a rider without a head.
