    1 of the worst movie i even seen

    Sometimes i like to watch B-movies because its fun to see bad actors and bad effect just for fun.but....... I saw this movie Manny years ago when it come out, it whats a big CHOCK to me.

    I Didn't know a movie can be so bad! and boring to watch.

    The story is boring, its look like a bad game from 1984? It whats a painful to watch this. be care.

    I cant believe some people voted +++ for this movie They must know some1 who made this crap movie.

    So don't waste your time to see this crap. You never got it back. i hope this guys never made a film again.

    Terrific

    What a great take on the classic tale. The CGI is a great addition to it and I think it makes things better. The story follows like any of the other adaptations. But it seems better than all the rest. It has great action and the CGI is very well done. Overall, very good movie. A must see.

    Pretty Good

    This a classic retelling of Irving Washingtons "The Headless Horseman" story. William H. Macy as Icabob Crane was a darn good choice in my opinion because he actually sounded like the way I always visulized Crane sounding like. I love computer animation too but this piece felt a bit awkwardly put together to me. It was like they never really took the time to place the body movements of the chracters in a beat that matched the pace their voices were going. Their mouths weren't moving at the pace their voices were going either. This the only real problem I have with this little movie. Otherwise it's pretty good. They background was dark and convincing, but wasn't designed to scare little children off. I give this movie a 8 out of 10.

    Worst cartoon/3D-movie I've ever seen.

    Terrible film. Looks like a bad game or intro to a game, the people doesn't look alive. The new "Sleepy Hollow" is a much better choice. The story is not very good. The movie is stated to be 1.30 hours, but was somewhere like 55 minutes.

    A Different Version of the Classic Tale

    The teacher Ichabod Crane arrives at Sleepy Hollow town and immediately falls in love with Katrina Van Tassel. Ichabold is intelligent, but weak and coward, and he finds a competitor, the strong Brom Bones that has been wooing Katrina for a long time. Soon begins a competition between the two men for Katrina, but Ichabold's greatest problem is the Headless Horseman that haunts him.

    "The Night of the Headless Horseman" is an animation about the classic tale "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" but with a different conclusion that is not clear. It seems that Bones made a deal with the Headless Horseman to get rid off Ichabod Crane. Unfortunately in Brazil this animation was only released in a dubbed VHS, and the viewer loses the original voices in English. My vote is four.

    Title (Brazil): "A Noite do Cavaleiro Sem Cabeça" ("The Night of the Headless Horseman")
