Mirrormask/Labyrinth/Dark Crystal [Box Set] DVD

MirrorMask:

MirrorMask is the story of Helena, who works for the family circus, and wishes - quite ironically - that she could run away and join real life. But such is not to be the case, as she finds herself on a strange journey into the Dark Lands, a fantastic landscape filled with giants, Monkeybirds and dangerous sphinxes. Helena searches for the MirrorMask, an object of enormous power that is her only hope of escaping the Dark Lands, waking the Queen of Light and returning home.

Labyrinth:

Labyrinth is a major fantasy feature film starring a cast of incredible creatures created by The Jim Henson Creature Shop, and produced by Star Wars director George Lucas. Starring rock legend David Bowie, who performs five original songs, Labyrinth is the perfect family film combining music, adventure, comedy and fantasy.

Frustrated with baby-sitting on yet another weekend night, Sarah - a teenager with an active imagination - summons the Goblins from her favourite book, 'Labyrinth', to take her baby step-brother away. When little Toby actually disappears, Sarah must follow him into the world of the fairy tale to rescue him from the wicked Goblin King (Bowie)!
Guarding his castle is The Labyrinth itself - a twisted maze of deception, populated with outrageous characters and unknown dangers. To get through it in time to save Toby, Sarah will have to outwit the King by befriending the very goblins who protect him, in hope that their loyalty isn't just another illusion in a place where nothing is as it seems!

Dark Crystal:

The Dark Crystal is a remarkable fantasy adventure, starring some of Jim Henson's most imaginative creatures ever. Five years in the making, this magical tale of good and evil is directed by Jim Henson and Frank Oz and produced by Gary Kurtz (Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back). You can also discover some of the secrets behind the making of the first ever all-puppet film in a special 60 minute featurette!

In another time, The Dark Crystal - a source of Balance and Truth in the Universe - was shattered, dividing the world into two factions: the wicked Skeksis and the peaceful Mystics. Now, as the convergence of the three suns approaches, the Crystal must be healed, or darkness will reign forever! It's up to Jen - the last of his race - to fulfil the prophecy that a Gelfling will return the missing shard to the Crystal and destroy the Skeksis' evil empire. But will young Jen's courage be any match for the unknown dangers that await him?
