Gabriel Shanks
2/4
"The film suffers from tepid performances, feebly drawn characters, and a meandering narrative."

4/5
"A spooky gothic horror tale with first-rate production design."
Netflix
James Rocchi
"Oozing with enough atmosphere to fill several movies and that only Burton could create, the film might not please everyone but is entertaining enough in a macabre type way to earn a passing grade."
Screen It!

Karina Montgomery
3.5/4
"The quirks of this
Sleepy Hollow

Scott Weinberg
"Not exactly a homage, not even a revision - it's just a crackling good Gothic Yarn"
