The classic tale of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow continues to inspire creative types nearly 200 years since Washington Irving penned it. Now, the latest film to pay horror homage is released on DVD today by First Look Studios. Entitled Headless Horseman (obviously these folks wanted to cut right to the chase, literally), it debuted in theaters last October.
This film follows seven youngsters who end up in a mysterious town on Halloween night, only to discover, yes you guessed it, the Headless Horseman. Convenient for the Headless one, though not so much for the group of seven interlopers, he needs to collect seven heads before the night is over. Doing their best to follow in the footsteps of Children of the Corn, the locals work diligently to keep the strangers' heads in town, if not detached.
You can watch a trailer for the DVD by clicking the image below.
Oh, and get this! The film stars Richard Moll of Night Court fame. He played the wacky bald bailiff, Bull. Bonus!
