    In this week's episode things get a little bit spooky as we take a look at Tim Burton's darkest entry into his filmography to date. 1999's Sleepy Hollow is an ode to Burton's Disney animation roots and is a fascinatingly dark film with performances from Johnny Depp, Christina Ricci and Helena Bonham Carter that show how dark Burton can go without losing the whimsy we've come to love.
