According to DVDActive, Paramount Home Entertainment has announced
the Blu-ray re-release of Tim Burton's SLEEPY HOLLOW. The disc is set
for release on
May 20. In the early United States of America, young
policeman Ichabod Crane is sent to from New York to the fledgling
settlement of Sleepy Hollow to investigate a series of ghoulish murders.
On his arrival, the town council informs him that the three victims were
killed in open ground, and the heads had disappeared - taken by a
headless ghost that is supposedly responsible. Ichabod is unconvinced of
this, but learns more about the ghostly horseman - it is the ghost of a
Hessian sent by the British during the revolutionary war, and he was
caught by redcoats and decapitated with his own sword.

When Ichabod sees the ghost kill one of the town council members, his
skepticism evaporates - and he soon discovers that the horseman's
ghost has an unholy connection to Balthus Van Tassel, a wealthy farmer
- and whose daughter Ichabod is falling in love with. The film will be
presented in a 1.85:1 Widescreen Transfer (1080p) with English Dolby
Digital 5.1, English DTS 5.1 and French Dolby Digital 5.1 audio with
English, English SDH, French and Spanish subtitles. Bonus features on the
disc will include commentary with Director Tim Burton, Sleepy Hollow:
Behind the Legend featurette and Reflections on Sleepy Hollow, the
Teaser Trailer HD and Theatrical Trailer HD. Sadly, this release is not that
different from the original DVD. You can order the disc over at
Amazon.
