The Sleepy Hollow set looks so realistic. The layers of mist and forbidding grey sky really create an uneasy atmospheric backdrop to the film. A great example of cast, crew and sets coming together to create something memorable.
Yes! I think the set pieces for the town are pretty similar to the original Washington Irving story with the farmland and the covered bridge and stuff(don't remember if there was a church in the original story though), other then the constant greyness and mist set the tone, but also how when like, you knew the horseman was coming or had come how the sky was changed to black clouds and thunder and lightning and how the music was risen and dramatic, it's all the little details that perfected and made this movie incredible
I love Sweeney Todd too!!! It’s such a shame it isn’t more popular, I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched it and I enjoy it as much now as I did the first time I saw it ☺️ Both Sleepy Hollow and Sweeney Todd are in my all time favourite movies list ☺️🏴
This is actually one of my favorite Tim Burton movies! I love to watch it around Halloween. I really liked Depp's portrayal of Crane and am honestly glad they turned down doing the prosthetic makeup on him as I think it would have been more distracting tbh. Plus I like the idea of having a really handsome dashing Crane but his characters personality was opposite as he wasn't the typical heroic type but instead a gentle person with interesting quirks.
I do really enjoy this film and I'm not gonna lie, the absolute eye candy that is Depp in 1790s clothes with messy 1990s hair is a fairly big part of it. I'm not proud, but it's the truth.
I think a better statement is Burton and Depp started the 90s with Vincent Price and ended the 90s with Christopher Lee. You don't get better working experience than that.
As a child, I watched Disney's SH on their Sunday night series, and had nightmares for well over a month. Knowing this was the same fictional source as that going in to watch the movie, I know my feelings of fear would be displaced, but I think Burton's vision plus my already hyped up horror going in to watching the movie added to the creepiness of SH making it even better like seasoning in a soup makes a better chicken soup--if that makes sense. (I didn't watch Disney's SH again until well into my early 30's because it still gave me chills to think about viewing it! The Car did the same thing to me; I had childhood nightmares for months and then watched it in my early 30's)
I agree Donald Corrigan This is the best version of Sleepy Hollow. From having read the novel, the movie is not accurate to the novel and in my point of view that’s a good thing because the novel function not as a horror story , it’s function more as a love triangle story.
@@jamesgarrett8833 Washington Irving's story is a satire starring the ignorant, superstitious Crane's interaction with the Dutch-American natives of the atmospheric Hudson River Valley. Burton's version is a great change.
: The goth horror style of Burton is why i fell n love with the man & Johnny Depp in the film is captivating not to mention Christina Richie & all the others.
Critics tend to pan enjoyable movies far too often, yet I usually find their reviews to be worthless. This is such a great Halloween movie and it is so enjoyable to watch over and over. Christopher Walken with those horrendous teeth may not say a word but he is absolutely terrifying‼️
Sleepy Hollow is one of my favorites due to the oddball quirkiness of the whole movie. I love Chris Walken, I think he's terrifying as the Headless Horseman.
I love the way the movie looks and feels It is beautiful to me I've seen it probably 50 times 'Corpse Bride' is beautiful to look at as well The patina of both of these movies is lovely
@Bejamin Parker I did, it was at a convention in South Australia. Even got a photo with her too. I haven't seen Lizzie Borden yet but I do want to give it a look.
I was always impressed with Ray's fight scenes. Wielding an axe and a long sword at the same time? That is not easy, and he makes it look effortless and amazing.
I really enjoy this movie. Even today. Had well placed humor, the right amount of suspense and thrills, and well told characters. Have to watch it again.
While lord knows I love Johnny in Pirates...this is my favorite and one of my favorites in general. Everything about this is perfect. The casting..the set design..the costumes are scrumptious..and the gothic look and feel of the movie adds to the perfection.
Agreed. If you liked this one as me, I highly recommend you to watch the Libertine, it's an awfully underated Masterpiece. Chilling bit horror movie - Secret window also. You won't regret :)
My friend and I knew immediately Ray Park was the stuntman behind the Headless Horseman, even before we heard it was indeed him, based on his sword handling techniques.
This movie reminds me of those Hammer Horror movies from the 1950s and 1960s. The gothic look, Baldor sets shot indoors, and even Christopher Lee and Michael Gambourgh.
Christopher Lee was another STAR WARS alumni in this film. It's cool to see actors who played Emperor Palpatine and two of his apprentices, Darth Maul and Darth Tyranus together in a non STAR WARS film.
I love "odd connections" like this. On the whole, the Sleepy Hollow cast is the cast of "Star Wars prequels" meets the cast of "Harry Potter" with a little "Pirates of the Caribbean." Also interesting to note is that Christopher Lee played Dracula and was hunted down by Abraham Van Helsing, played by Peter Cushing, a.k.a. Grand Moff Tarkin. The actors had also co-starred in "Frankenstein," with Cushing as Dr. Frankenstein and Lee as the monster.
He probably has his whole usual ensemble on speed dial and they all just wait for him to determine what movie he’ll make next that includes them all. Lol
The action figures were amazing because they were made by McFarlane Toys. This was around the same time that they were putting out their amazing Spawn line. The sculpts on their action figures was incredible! The Sleepy Hollow figures were released more as collectibles than kids' toys.
I watched this numerous times as a kid, so when I got into Hammer films as an adult, I instantly connected the two. I really wish we'd get more Hammer style horror movies.
@Hugh Jassel That's because the Horseman's blade instantly cauterized the wounds as his sword was heated by the flames of hell. Ichabod found this out when examining the corpse of young Masbeth's father.
This is my essential Halloween movie and while it doesn't stick to the short story, it feels like a fanart mixture of what would happen if Edgar Poe re-imagined The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. I knew it! I could feel him channeling Rathbone from the very first outing in 'Hound of the Baskervilles'! That role would oddly go on to be given to Peter Cushing in the Hammer films production of the same episode which saw Christopher Lee as the heir to Baskerville!!!
YAYY MINTY! So glad you covered this one- I *LOVED* Sleepy Hollow growing up... still do... such great atmosphere, story and characters! I agree that it’s one of Burton’s most underrated films!
You forgotten that in The Dead Zone Johnny Smith (Christopher Walken) tells the his class to read Sleep Hollow which 16 years later Walken starred in Sleepy Hollow.
I remember when I watched that scene in The Dead Zone which Walken pulls a smirk when he says Headless Demon. It is as he was hinting he was going to be playing "The Headless Demon". I still think Stallone missed a trick of including Walken and Tom Berenger in The Expendable film as they both starred in The Dogs of War which they played soldier's which a character said "they are expendable". Most of the main actor in The Expendables have started in film that I used the word they are expendable
It is one of my favorite Burton Films. For Halloween this year, I introduced it to my daughters for the first time. They are 11 and 13. They laughed every time Icabod passed out. "Again!", they cried in unison. This is the best Elfman soundtrack, and I have all of the figures MIB. Including The Headless Horseman riding Thunder!
Micheal Cormier I absolutely love the Sleepy Hollow movie. The Disney animated movie is okay, it’s scary me as a kid. It’s good in its own way. To me it’s purpose is if people wanted see an adaptation more accurate to the novel. The Disney cartoon movie from 1949 is the to see
Odd Fact: Even though it has been known as Sleepy Hollow for hundreds of years, when it officially incorporated, it took the name North Tarrytown. Despite being internationally famous, it kept this stupid name based on nearby unfamous Tarrytown until 1996. Just 3 years before this movie was released. In 1996 it finally officially became Sleepy Hollow.
I used to live near Sleepy Hollow and have been there for work and relaxation many times. In October there is a huge, elaborate display of Jack O’Lanterns at one of the old 17th Century manor homes. It’s also where Major Andre was captured with the plans acquired from Benedict Arnold. Washington Irving wanted to give his small home its own unique legend, and wound up making it world famous.
Definitely one of my favorite Halloween time movies. The movie in fact inspired me to go take a trip to Sleepy Hollow in Tarrytown, New York at Halloween time. One of the best trips I've ever taken. The Hudson River Valley communities do a great job at Halloween. I highly recommend going and I highly recommend watching this movie.
The action figures were part of a lineup of famous classic other horror action figures lineup called the Movie Maniacs series designed by legendary comic book artist Todd McFarlane the creator of Spawn. The series of toys included horror icons such as Jason Freddy Krueger Michael Myers Chucky Candyman The Crow Etc.
Yeah, you can see the logo on the package, so the comment in the video about "toys being marketed for an R rated movie" doesn't really make sense, as McFarlane toys are usually collectors figures and not like, $6 whatever cartoon is popular now action figures.
...this was Johhny Depp at his finest! This was an awesome movie for depp and burton! Wish we had more like these! The Johnny depp figure was something I bought and still have!
@smilebackifyourugly I love the scene where it looks like Christopher Lee has wings while he's giving his orders to Constable Crane from high up on his bench
I adore this movie! It's the best of their collaboration in my humble opinion. The effects and visuals are just as stunning today as it was when it came out. The cinematography was also stunning. See it if you haven't!

I just love the way Minty exits every time he ends his video reviews as he says "See Yah!" then stoops down from his chair and tries to stay out of sight just before the camera cuts to the credits. Such a unique trademark of his Show. He should patent it as " The Minty Exit" or " Pulling off a Minty" Lol!👍😄
NATIVE LATINOS Fook TRUMP ...her brother was our tech when I was touring around in a band..he looked just like her so yeah that ruined it for me...great guy
I love Sleepy Hollow! I watch it every Halloween season(although I have to admit, after a couple of decades of this tradition, I've gotten a little tired of it). I think Johnny Depp is brilliant in this. I do think this was probably the start of his 'quirky' phase. And I do love the visuals as well. Amazing. It's like you are visiting the dark part of Faerie.
I love this flick. It has the perfect atmosphere, and I find it's a great way to kick off spooky movie season. The Action Figure Line was done by McFarlane Toys, and wasn't necessarily meant for kids. The line fit in more with the Movie Maniacs line McFarlane had at the time, which was marketed more toward adult collectors. I still have my Ichabod figure and it's pretty great. Awesome likeness of Depp and a ton of accessories. The downside is they don't have much articulation. I remember it was the first thing I purchased from this new site at the time called Amazon. Wonder whatever happened to them... Never could find the horseman, in either form. Great vid, as always, Minty! Until the next one...

Sleepy Hollow and Sweeney Todd are a couple of my favorite horror movies with underrated performances from Johnny Depp.

I agree!
His movies are great
My favorite is still beetlejuice, tho!
Christopher Walken as the Headless Horseman was awesome.
Yes, yes , yessss.
He didn't really have much to do in the film.
I agree.. he was scarier with the head
This movie was so beautifully gothic in its visuals, a lot like Coppola's Dracula.
I agree 👍
So right !
kung Few I like the idea of the mystery of why people were being murdered and how the elders were connected in a conspiracy.
@@brilicusgaming6922 Yes, very well done, one of Tim Burton's best imo.

“Criticized for its gore and violence.”
Isn’t that like going to the number one comedy of the year and complaining that it was a comedy?
Pretty much
Yeah, it's like what did they expect?
@Hugh Jassel That's because the Horseman's blade instantly cauterized the wounds as his sword was heated by the flames of hell. Ichabod found this out when examining the corpse of young Masbeth's father.
They always get upset when someone goes outside their genre. He doesn’t do horror movies he does weird movies usually pg 13.
It's like they didn't even look at the R rating and forgot how horror movies work.
Always thought this movie had really beautiful art direction. I always imagined Sleepy Hollow looking exactly like this!
I looooooved that movie when I was a teenager. That aura of mysterious powers and secrets of the past was just oozing all over the movie.
The horseman, scarier with its head on, than off.
Totally agree
Bwahahahahaha!!!!!
Show how good of an actor Walken is.
True.
the movie made me remember Walkens name and trew him among my favorite actors :) I mean he's barely there and yet makes such an impact....
This is my essential Halloween movie and while it doesn't stick to the short story, it feels like a fanart mixture of what would happen if Edgar Poe re-imagined The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.

One of my penultimate movies of all time! Genius acting , casting, directing, cinematography, sets, costumes, everything about it!!!
“One broken finger was just a walk in the park” genius as his finger was broken by Ray Park, next line now let’s discuss Christopher Walken.
6:00, he's a coward in the beginning, but becomes a hero at the end.
In regard to the mechanical horse, "If it ain't broke don't fix it". Modification on the other hand is perfectly acceptable.
Excellent flick! Very well made. Very well performed. Very enjoyable to watch. Thanks Minty!
It's my favorite movie and beautiful and charming. I always love it.

This movie is so awesome. It's always been one of my favorites.
Just watched this a few months ago. Still one of Burton's best, that I've seen
Tim Burton's loving homage to Hammer Films and I love it
This film scared the hell out of me and my family when we first saw in April 2000, after it's VHS and DVD release.
One of my favourite films and also the first time I saw Christopher Walken so you can imagine my surprise when I saw pulp fiction 😂
first sort of grown up movie i let my daughter watch with me and it is still one of our favourites.
This is an underrated film
The only person missing was Peter Cushing, may he Rest In Peace.
I get the feeling they would've tapped him to cameo as one of the town officials. Or as Crane's dad in his flashback.
In my opinion if Peter Cushing was alive he would be great as one of the characters in this film or another old school horror actor John Carridene
@smilebackifyourugly I love the scene where it looks like Christopher Lee has wings while he's giving his orders to Constable Crane from high up on his bench
This was my favorite movie bc I love Tim Burton's signature, dark & pale & Sleepy Hollow was my favorite scary story when I was a kid.
Sleepy Hallow & the Corpse Bride are outstanding films with wonderful music & amazing casts!
I remember having the Nintendo 64 when this came out and waiting for the PS2 and mgs2. Good times
3:20, I remember watching the documentary on the the making of the cancelled Superman movie.
I adore this movie! It's the best of their collaboration in my humble opinion. The effects and visuals are just as stunning today as it was when it came out. The cinematography was also stunning. See it if you haven't!
I adore this movie. I watch it all year round and often put it on when I am going to sew an epic dress or paint.

Such a unique trademark of his Show. He should patent it as " The Minty Exit" or " Pulling off a Minty" Lol!👍😄
I love this movie! So fabulous! The story, the effects, the cinematography is topnotch! Definitely a favorite.
I remember the first movie I saw Johnny Depp in was a nightmare on elm Street & the first movie I saw Christina Ricci in was The Addams family.
🍔 Christina Ricci so hot in this movie
Yup!
Everything about Christina Ricci is hot...
EW WTF
NATIVE LATINOS Fook TRUMP ...her brother was our tech when I was touring around in a band..he looked just like her so yeah that ruined it for me...great guy
🍔??
This was my first R rated film, and i consider it a masterpiece.
Haha! it was the first R rated film I allowed my daughter to watch
I love Sleepy Hollow! I watch it every Halloween season(although I have to admit, after a couple of decades of this tradition, I've gotten a little tired of it). I think Johnny Depp is brilliant in this. I do think this was probably the start of his 'quirky' phase. And I do love the visuals as well. Amazing. It's like you are visiting the dark part of Faerie.
I was never a huge Tim Burton fan but I've always loved Sleepy Hollow.
Omg, minty really IS my friend! I am a HUGE Tim Burton fan, thanks minty 💞😁😎
Hey girl...I literally just commented like the same thing to him lol ✌😉 ♡Tim Burton moviez
@@magicvampirelver1321 Tim Burton fan club right here girl, 😁✋
9:15 That seems harsh. He's Christopher Walken after all-Not Christopher Riden....I'll get my coat.
I love this movie, too. I think Edward Scissorhands, Sleepy Hollow and Sweeney Todd are the top Depp/Burton collabs.
Sleepy Hollow is my all time favourite Tim Burton movie! As you said it’s the Burton method at its best! ☺️ it perfect!! ❤️🏴
I love this movie! I'm surprised to hear it's getting shit on now, I thought it was regarded as a near classic.
Nice one, Minty.
And Dark Shadows was hilarious. Though it did turn off older fans since the TV series was a gothic drama.
Thank you. I'm not the only one who likes that movie. I'm kind of new to the old tv show.

Dark Shadows was awesome. Great soundtrack too.
Dark shadows was ass
I love this flick. It has the perfect atmosphere, and I find it's a great way to kick off spooky movie season. The Action Figure Line was done by McFarlane Toys, and wasn't necessarily meant for kids. The line fit in more with the Movie Maniacs line McFarlane had at the time, which was marketed more toward adult collectors. I still have my Ichabod figure and it's pretty great. Awesome likeness of Depp and a ton of accessories. The downside is they don't have much articulation. I remember it was the first thing I purchased from this new site at the time called Amazon. Wonder whatever happened to them... Never could find the horseman, in either form. Great vid, as always, Minty! Until the next one...
I love Sleepy Hollow. It's one of my favorite Tim Burton movies. My son and I watch it every year in October as one of our horror movie fest lineups
