In this paranormal slasher film, Johnny Depp portrays a New York-based constable named Ichabod Crane who is dispatched to the village of Sleepy Hollow to investigate a serial murderer who rides around town decapitating people (hence his nickname, the Headless Horseman). As Crane digs into the case, he finds himself at the centre of a paranormal conflict that has plagued the town for hundreds of years.
The plot of Sleepy Hollow is too predictable and falls victim to some of the most overused horror tropes, like the B*tch in Sheep's Clothing and Faking the Dead, but the film is still captivating nonetheless.
