"I ask for so little. Just fear me, love me, do as I say and I will be your slave." Following the success of The Dark Crystal, Jim Henson's production company had to raise the bar for their next ambitious feature.

My brother and I watched this movie so many times on VHS that the audio at the beginning was all warped and off. But it leveled out as after the credits.

Sarah has wished her annoying baby brother away, and it's up to her to go into the labyrinth and solve a few puzzles, and avoid some dangers to get him back in a mere 13 hours.

Great music by David Bowie (who is perfect as the Goblin King), a very young Jennifer Connelly, and a cast of unusual and crazy puppets to guide her along the way.

Watch it through the second time to pick up interesting things in the background.
