Sleepy Hollow (1999) | Who is the Headless Horseman? (ft. Christopher Walken) | Paramount Movies

[@elnavales]

Jack Sparrow, Emperor Palpatine, Dumbledore, Vernon Dirsley , Alfred the Butler and Ferris Bueller's Principal all in the same room. What a wonderful cast.

[@Aka-293]

I prefer the term The Toymaker from Doctor Who over Alfred

[@samanthab1923]

Three are dead RIP 🙏🏻

[@samanthab1923]

Only other movie with three Sith Lords. Christopher Lee, Tyranus, Ray Park as Maul. Stand in for Walken & Ian McDiarmid, Sidious

the principal from ferris bueller is a monster. he touched children. Jeffrey jones

That look of mourning he had when his horse was shot. Guy might have been a monster, but he loved his horse.

The horseman has a deeper bond w/ his horse than he ever did w/ any other man.

Where is Walken’s dance step in this film?

[@benjaminharris7091]

The genius of having Michael Gambon tell the legend of the Hessian! His delivery of the lines is spellbinding! I’d also like to hear how Ian McDiarmid would have told that story!

Walken's physical acting as the headless version was so over the top and boisterious I couldn't help laughing. I will never regard Sleepy Hollow as anything but a dark comedy.

[@jaredmueller6005]

Brought a sword to a gun fight, comes out of the battlefield unscathed leaving behind a pile of heads. Total badass.

[@dhorn4005]

Actually; guns where VERY unprecise in this era; and took forever to reload; so after a first volley; swords, axes and bayonets where the main weapon of a soldier... specially chivallry; witch would be sent to the weakest point of a formation with sabers or even lances to charge and breakthe infantry lines... so swords where very poppular... ...not a medieval longsword like this; but well; he is old fashioned XD

[@nightmare9759]

I love that they have to highlight that he kills by cutting off the heads, even the day he died he took some heads with him.

It's a bit funny that the horseman rode into battle like a kind of medival knight with an old style sword, during an era of firearms.

I mean cav was still a thing at this point. Yes, sabers were preferred but it's hardly outside the realm of possibility.

Most of those revolutionary soldiers were real sports...
