I agree, both the movie and the original legend. I mean, its a true American Halloween story.

Him too, but Christopher Lee is in the NYC opening sequence and looks terrifying in a powdered wig.

I remember loving Lee's cameo in the film. I hadn't seen Lee in a theatrical release since I think 1979...so I was like, "Okay, this is worth the price of admission already and everything else is gravy!"

I did like Sleepy Hollow quite a bit. Very creative mutation of the original story and there are some really fine special effects.

Because I have way too much time on my hands, I do theme nights.

Rob Zombie Night = House of 1000 Corpses and The Devil's Rejects

Dee Wallace Stone Night = Cujo, The Howling, and The Hills Have Eyes

Original vs. Remake Night = When a Stranger Calls, The Fog, (insert any of what seems like a laundry list of remakes here)

US vs. Asian Night = The Ring vs. Ringu and The Grudge vs. Ju-on

Mutant/Cannibal Night = Wrong Turn and both The Hills Have Eyes

Masked Mayhem Night = Halloween, Friday the 13th, and Scream

I think you get the point. Like I said, I have quite possibly the most pathetic life imaginable.:D

im' slowly weening my nephew into the horror genres, he is only 5, but since he was 3 we have made it a tradition to pull out nightmare before x-mas for the whole month of october and that becomes our monthly movie, he loves it! so that in my mind is always great on to have on the list.

Personaly I've always had a hard time placing this movie. It has Halloween themes and Chrsitmas themes plus it came out during the holiday season when it was in theaters. I guess a person could choose to watch it either way.

My Fifth Annual Halloween Horror Movie Marathon will include Isle of the Dead (Lewton/Robson, 1945), Spook Louder (Three Stooges short, 1943), and My Bloody Valentine (1981). I'm really looking forward to it!
