Review For the Pilot of Sleepy Hollow

Sleepy Hollow. 20th Century Fox

This Fall Season Fox has premiered a new series by the name of "Sleepy Hollow" based on the "Legend of Sleepy Hollow" by Washington Irving. Today we're going to review the pilot of the series.
The story takes place in the modern day with protagonist Ichabod Crane, whose played by Tom Mison, waking up after two hundred years. Having slept through the end of the American Revolution he's a fish out of water and ends up teaming up with Abbie Mill, played by Nicole Beharie, to solve the mysterious behind everything in that town. The small town of Sleepy Hollow is set to be the backdrop off a battle for the very soul of humanity as during the American Revolution the founding fathers discovered that the war marked the start of the biblical of end of days. Crane was charged with the duty of stopping the first horse man of the apocalypse, and with their first fight their fates were tied together. Chopping off it's head Crane was mortally wounded and sealed their fates together so waking up the horsemen in the modern world woke up Crane too. The small town tied up with the supernatural forced and gives plenty of hints that there are people aware of that fact and are moving behind the scenes.
