Many people will find this movie a bit difficult to understand, and don't know why some people have this idea. In fact, this is a very simple story, and its plot is the conspiracy, love and revenge that will be applied in many movies. It's just that this film uses a terrifying image of a "Headless Horseman" to subtly confuse your sight, allowing the audience to dilute the main line of the plot because of the terrifying atmosphere created by the director, thus creating a confusing and suspenseful effect.
The headless horseman in the film is actually not the most terrifying. Although his appearance will bring death every time, he is also just a manipulative murder tool. The real horror is the one who manipulates it. Because of that man's greed and revenge, she used the head of the Headless Horseman to direct it to kill all those who might compete with her for property, or get in her way, including her husband and her fellow sisters. It can be seen that the horror of the human heart is far greater than that of any ghost.
Depp plays a timid but fearless little police officer who is dispatched to Sleepy Hollow because he is dissatisfied with the local police department's decision to treat prisoners. This is a man who is both afraid and disbelieving of ghosts and gods. On the one hand, he believes in science. On the other hand, he trembles with fear when he hears the murder of the Headless Horseman. This is the contradiction and loveliness of this character. place. I personally like this character very much, it can be said that he brings a touch of color to this gloomy film, especially Depp's performance in the film is very cute, such as the strange tools he uses to solve cases, and his contradictory Personality, he just fainted from fright a moment ago, and he woke up a moment later and resumed investigating the case. This character always reminds me of watching ghost movies when I was a child, and I was always scared to death while still watching.
When we followed this character all the way, nervous, doubtful, fearful, and funny until the end, when the film solved this murder mystery for us, did we see the real murderer? Will the Headless Horseman of Sleeping Hollow make a comeback?
