Ichabod Crane je ekscentrični detektiv koji je iz Njujorka poslat u izolovano seoce kako bi ispitao slučajeve tri misteriozne dekapitacije.
Kada uvek racionalni Crane (Johnny Depp) dođe u maleno selo u okrugu Donji Vestčester, otkriva da većina meštana misli da su dekapitacije delo Bezglavog jahača, duha monstruoznog ratnika Hessiana, koji je, čini se, čudnovato povezan sa jednom od najistaknutijih porodica u kraju i opseda selo u želji za osvetom.
Ichabod ignoriše mistične razloge ubistava i okreće se naučnom objašnjenju ubičinog ludila. Kroz istragu, Crane upoznaje mladu i lepu Katrinu Van Tassle (Christina Ricci), kćerku lokalnog bogataša...
Movie Info: Washington Irving's tale of Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman gets a few new twists in a screen adaptation directed by Tim Burton. In this version, Ichabod (Johnny Depp) is a New York City detective whose unorthodox techniques and penchant for gadgets make him unpopular with is colleagues. He is sent to the remote town of Sleepy Hollow to investigate a series of bizarre murders, in which a number of people have been found dead in the woods, with their heads cut off.
Local legend has it that a Hessian ghost rides through the woods on horseback, lopping off the heads of the unsuspecting and unbelieving. Ichabod refuses to believe in this legend, convinced that there must be a logical explanation for the murders. In time, Ichabod becomes smitten with a local lass, Katrina Van Tassel (Christina Ricci), who is the sweetheart of the burly Brom Bones (Casper Van Dien), and he becomes determined to capture the murderer to prove his bravery and win her heart.

Skroz ok film, dok sam bio klinac i gledao isti plašio sam se međutim kasnije kada sam odgledao ponovo bio je totalno ok. Rado bih ga gledao više puta.
