Average review score: 

Stay Away from Sleepy Hollow High!What's the movie about? A headless horseman killing kids from Sleepy Hollow High! Why is he, she or it doing this? I don't know. Terrible acting combined with a script right out of the trash can equals the worst movie I have ever seen in my 37 years of life! I cannot believe that people got paid for making and acting in this. I have seen home movies of peoples vacations that have had more of a plotline that Sleepy Horror High. The lighting had to have been done with a flashlight and to help improve the lightning situation, a campfire was started toward the end of this fine feature film so the actors could see in the dark. I give it one star not only because I can't go lower, but because of what I saw in the credits at the end (yes, I suffered through it all!) The filmmakers thanked "Visa and Mastercard who without their support, the film would have never been made" (I'm not kidding about this, look for yourself!) That sentence alone made me laugh as hard as any comedy has made me laugh. This should be shown in college film classes as the how to not make a movie!
Worse acting than a Mentos commercial.If you've read any of my other reviews, you know I love low budget horror. Unfortunately, this train wreck of a movie is so bad that it isn't even funny. The camera shots are often so dark that you can't tell what is going on. There is one decent killing where big streams of blood squirts from a body like a Monty Python movie, but otherwise there is nothing here to even keep your attention. Negligible gore, no nudity, horrible acting, awful camera work, no originality...... I could go on. I honestly can say that I haven't fast forwarded through very many movies, but after 45 minutes of this stuff I did and you will too! Stay away from this steamer!
Bad, Bad, and... oh yeh... BAD!This movie was really BAD! "Bad" is the only adjective to describe it. WHO THE HELL WAS THE CASTING DIRECTOR? I"VE made better films than this piece of crud! STAY AWAY! The cast...BAD
The story... BAD The Direction... umm was there any direction? ...or was it just anyone the cast found that could hold a camcorder and press RECORD. As I watched the movie I thought that it might make up for it's horrible plot by having some cool death scenes and gore. NOTHING! This movie had like.. NO BLOOD! The only Slasher movie that I have ever seen that had no gore and still scared the hell out of you.. was John Carpenter's Halloween! This movie was silly, chessy, and BAD!
