THE DARK CRYSTAL (1982)
CertificationPG Our Rating
A lovely fantasy of a far-off star where one era is ending and another dawning. The prophets decree that only a wee cute (muppet-like) Gelfling can save the world from domination by the evil Skeksis forever. This stunningly made film's imaginative settings could only be from the Henson team. Excellent.
