1999: The Podcast

SLEEPY HOLLOW: "Hollow" - with Dan Colón and guest go-host Becky Ellis

82 min • 11 december 2023

Sleepy Hollow qualifies as one of the biggest movies of the year, and it was certainly one of the most anticipated - an expected return to form from a slumping Tim Burton.

But it didn't quite work out that way.

Released on November the 19th of 1999, Sleepy Hollow was one of the most expensive movies ever made at the time, with a budget of $100 millionand while it wasn't a flop, it only barely broke even.

While Burton reteamed with some of his most reliable collaborators - star Johnny Depp, composer Danny Elfman, and production designer Rick Heinrichs - and while what appears onscreen is unquestionably beautiful to look at, critics and audiences found Sleepy Hollow...well, hollow.

This week, Dan Colón, of CageClub's very own The Monsters That Made Us podcast guests as our old friend Becky Ellis subs in the co-host seat as we wrestle with our feelings for Tim Burton's most beautiful gorefest.
