Horror Extreme Movie Catalog

In, what has become one of my favorite films, Tim Burton served up an extraordinarily vibrant retelling of the Washington Irving classic, with rich baroque siennas, umbers, and golds jumping out of the mists of a secretive little burrough, where a number of bodies begin to show up missing their thinking caps. Enter a constable ( wonderfully portrayed by Johnny Depp ), out of favor with his superiors, given to vapors, and scientific methods that appeal not at all to the puritanical powers that be. With the aid of a local beauty ( winsomely played by Christina Ricci ) of mysterious bent, and a young lad related to one of the headless, our gallant policeman puts aside his fear of large bugs, and searches for a human devil...

Bottom line: there are plenty of extras in this particular version, and it's well worth the bread.

So far, this is the worst quality Blu Ray disc I have seen, which is a shame because this is such a visually stunning film. The Blu Ray is extremely grainy and details in many shots almost seem to have a smudged look. Paramount should recall these discs and tranfer the film over again. Don't buy this Blu Ray.
