Movie Review: **The Haunted Pumpkin of Sleepy Hollow

This animated feature movie was produced in 2003 the Porchlight Entertainment.   It is less than an hour, made for t.v. special.  It is along the genre of the Magic School Bus or Skooby Doo.  It starts with a retelling of the Washington Irving Story, and then carries on from there.  There are a couple thieves who steal the original manuscript, and another couple of kids looking for the best pumpkin, and unknowingly pick the pumpkin where the manuscript was hid.  However the manuscript turns the pumpkin into the haunted head, and the headless horseman is looking for it.  Lots of ghost flying around, and scaring of each other.  A couple of scary song spice up the show.  The main feature of this short is that it is noisy.

Movie Review: ***The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad

These two movies were released together by Walt Disney pictures.  Mr. Toad is presented first and is narrated by Basil Rathbone.  It is based on the book "Wind in the Willows" by Kenneth Grahame.  Mr. Toad goes through a series of manic pursuit of different hobbies or fancies.  He starts with traveling by gypsy wagon, moves on to motor cars, then to escape, and last to airplanes.  At each juncture his friends Mole, Badger and Rat have to bail him out.  In this version they must rescue Toad Hall and the deep given to Mr. Toad when he was accused of stealing a motor car.
The second feature, Ichabod, is based on "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" written by Washington Irving.  This portion of the film is narrated by Bing Crosby.  This version pits the town bully as the headless horseman, and Ichabod who as the school master.  Ichabod has his eyes set on the bully's girl; so the bully takes matters into his own hand.  This is not Disney's best effort.
