    CLIP DESCRIPTION:
    Baltus (Michael Gambon) tells the tale of how the Hessian Horseman (Christopher Walken) was killed with his own sword.
    FILM DESCRIPTION:
    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. Christopher Walken, Jeffrey Jones, and Christopher Lee highlight the supporting cast; Lee's appearance is particularly apt, since Burton has cited the Hammer films of the 1960s as a major influence in making this film. Andrew Kevin Walker and Tom Stoppard contributed to the screenplay.

      He only fled because of the second shot fired at him. I liked him very much as a character. He had more depth than a lot of people realized. The innocents he kills are when he is being controlled by the witch. When he gets his free will back, he defeats the witch. I don't think he's an inherently evil character. The only people he kills of his own free will are enemy soldiers and the witch that was controlling him and forcing him to kill innocent people.

I find the Disney film more entertaining but I think Ichabod and Katrina are much more likable in the Tim Burton film than the Disney film. I prefer Ichabod being tall skinny, big nosed and silly looking than him being handsome in the Tim Burton film. Just my opinion since I think both are good and different from each other.

    This was a complex and badass Horseman. In life he was an utter blood knight who lived for the thrill of battle, but he had a code of honor and saw no need for killing innocents. He also dearly loved his horse as a lifelong companion. And in his final stand, he managed to kill most of the hunting party that had been pursuing him all by himself. You would only find a deadlier revenant in Jason Voorhees himself.

      and disaster throughout the film
      Notice that the second sister ran away without returning, but the other was watching in the hope that she would get a head and she was the one who started sending it to the people who she hated them so that he could cut off their heads for her to the point that She sent him to her sister to behead her..This is the origin of the film's story scenario, if you know

    Going back and rewatching this film, I’ve picked up on a few things. Despite his love of carnage and chaos, the Horseman had a code of honor. He could’ve easily murdered the kids instead of calmly going “shhhh”, but he didn’t. Even after the little girl broke the stick he didn’t attack them. Which means that later in the film, Lady Van Tassel makes him break that code by murdering the unarmed Killian family and the other lady that was pregnant.

Washington Irving became friends with the Van Tassels and wrote the short story with their name in it. There really was a Catrina Van Tassel, but she lived before the Rev. War and was the sister of my ancestor, Sarah Van Tassel.

    I always interpreted the reason that the Hessian only growled and yelled in "Sleepy Hollow" was for three reasons. 1) He filed his teeth down to sharp points and therefore, any vowel that consisted of using his teeth against his tongue or lips would cause excruciating pain. 2) He spoke High German (being from Hessen) and most of the Sleepy Hollow residents were Dutch and therefore would not know his language even if some parts were recognizable. 3) It makes him all the more less human and therefore so much more sinister. 4) Could you imagine Walken trying to do a German accent?

    So, what EXACTLY did the Horseman do wrong? He fought the same as all the other Hessians, but did it out of passion. He made a point of cutting enemies heads off, which is the quickest and most painless way to die. He obviously cared deeply for his horse, Daredevil, and was hurt when Daredevil was mortally wounded. He didn't attack the little girls who gave him away. After his death, the Horseman only killed people while under control of the witch. When he gains back control, he kills the witch and drags her to Hell, freeing the village. What did the Headless Horseman actually do wrong?

      Christian Schmude Also at the end when he gets his head back he doesn't kill Ichabod and Katrina instead looking at them perhaps in his own way of thanking them.

      Christian Schmude Sometime in the stories the villains aren't really villains, and the heroes aren't really heroic.
      In the end, stories are made to boost someone's fame in order to be famous or infamous.

      I think he only liked killing in the context of war and battle.

      He couldn't kill them before he was discovered without making noise, and after he had no time due to the approach of his enemies.

      @@marinaaguas9219 I agree. I think he was only psychotic and bloodthirsty in the heat of battle and his only victims were soldiers or those that tried to kill him. He might have been a caring and compassionate person away from the battlefield. War just brought out the worst in him as it does many others. He went after innocents later as the Headless Horseman because he was forced to do so by the witch in this film. Otherwise, he would not have gone after them.

    Yup. The Horseman just shows that he has a line he won't cross and it bites him.

    This movie just screams classic Universal Monster. The Horseman was ruthless but he was a soldier that just followed orders, which was reflected in his revenant form, taking orders from whomever held his skull. Both in life and after life he kept getting screwed over

    Carnage comes with his job. He does what he likes as his career.
    But he doesn't seem that bad outside of battles and outside his job. Seeing how he, while being the Headless Horseman, is willing to spare the lives of the ones who gets in his way as long as they don't annoy him too much.

    I think that this could be one of the best movies ever made if it was just an hour longer. Explaining characters, their motives, connections and environment better.
