Labyrinth (1986)

Journey through the Goblin Kingdom with David Bowie

By Kayleigh Fraser ✨Published 2 years ago Updated 2 years ago 1 min read

Creative master Bowie and Muppet Jim Henson birthed this legendary, iconic 80s, box office flop cult movie.

Jennifer Connolly is Sarah, lost in the dramatic, theatrical and dark underworld of the Goblin King.

Beware what you wish for as the goblins are always listening.

And don’t forget to Magic Dance.

Authors Note // Of course I don’t actually think Jim Henson is a muppet. It just seemed more amusing for the critique to leave off the s apostrophe whilst referencing his fame for the creation of popular children’s puppet show The Muppets.

    This movie has always left me with an uneasy feeling. I re-watched it recently and it's quite nightmarish. LOL! I like your review, though. ;-) Connolly is such an underrated actress...

    I was eight, and no film ever scared me like this one did. You'd be amazed how many memories your 50 words bring back! Bet I end up watching my DVD tomorrow night, thanks Kayleigh!
