Not because it is scary or full of gore and horror but because of the mere beauty and beguiling mystery it has.
Jim Henson has brought us some of the most wonderful, beautiful, and captivating films to ever grace the silver screen.
I truly believe that, with anyone else running the show, Labyrinth wouldn’t be half as fascinating and strangely beautiful as it is.
Just the goblins alone, never mind the other strange and often curious creatures popping up everywhere, makes this film a horror movie.
From there on, Labyrinth is an adventure into a fantasy world that only Jim Henson could create.
So many different writers and producers are still influenced by Labyrinth in one way or another, and I can see why.
So, happy 35th anniversary to Jim Henson’s Labyrinth, a film that will be loved and admired for many generations to come. »
