Summary

Watch your head because we're kicking off spooky season (and our 250th episode!) with a look at Tim Burton's extremely Halloween-y classic Sleepy Hollow (1999)! From Johnny Depp's effeminate interpretation of Ichabod Crane to Miranda Richardson's devilishly campy climactic performance, this movie has it all! Join us as we praise, well, pretty much everything about Tim Burton's ode to Hammer Horror (and Disney's animated version of the story). But hey, the movie kills a kid! Plus: Elfman's score, bad wigs, eating the rich, and Joe teaching Trace what a trompe-l'œil is. References: > Susan Bernardo. “The Bloody Battle of the Sexes in Tim Burton’s Sleepy Hollow”.
