Sleepy Hollow




Sleepy Hollow Cover Collection 2 Versions for DVD covers, Sleepy Hollow HD-DVD Version, Sleepy Hollow Blu-Ray Version

Partial Review via High-Def Digest (click title for full review). 'Sleepy Hollow' is another visual tour de force from Burton. I took even more pleasure this time around soaking in its gorgeous cinematography and production design.

Inspired in equal parts by classic illustration, animation and the EC Comics and Hammer horror films Burton grew up on as a kid, 'Sleepy Hollow' looks elegant, moody, atmospheric and creepy. Almost black and white in his use of color (aside from all that flowing crimson, of course), Burton has made the most stately of horror films.
