As you all know, I spend my Sunday evenings sitting down with a good 80's flick. Well this Sunday, I watched a movie that I was afraid of for a very long time. The movie is called Labyrinth. This film was made in 1986 and was directed by Jim Henson. Labyrinth stars the famous singer, David Bowie, the actress, Jennifer Connelly, and young actor, Toby Froud.
The movie's over all story is about a 15-year-old girl, Sarah (Connelly), who wishes her baby brother, Toby (Froud), away to the Goblin King Jareth (Bowie). Jareth will keep Toby if his Sarah doesn't complete the labyrinth in 13 hours. Young Sarah is left at home with Toby who cries all the time. While Sarah is telling Toby a story to make him sleep, she conjures up a fantasy world with a goblin king that steals babies and places them in the middle of a labyrinth and the rescuer must complete the labyrinth before midnight or the baby will turn into a goblin. Little did Sarah know that her fantasy was soon going to be true. Does Sarah save her brother before midnight, or does he turn into a goblin? Watch the movie and find out!! :)
I would recommend this movie to teenagers and above. Reason being, when I was younger, I was so afraid of this movie. I always thought that I was going to be in the middle of the labyrinth and turn into a goblin, because no one could make it in time. I like the movie now and like to sit down and view it without thinking that I am going to be a goblin. :p

This movie scared me! I still don't like watching it.
I'm not sure I've ever seen this completely from start to finish! One of my friends loved David Bowie, though, so I think I saw most of it.
