This week on Rewind Classic Movies, we’re exploring Labyrinth (1986) - Jim Henson’s wildly imaginative fantasy starring David Bowie as the unforgettable Goblin King.

On this episode we discuss:

• Weird age gaps and questionable fantasies
• David Bowie’s iconic performance (and yes… those tights)
• The extraordinary practical effects and puppetry from Jim Henson’s Creature Shop
• How the film blends fantasy, comedy and coming-of-age themes
• Why Labyrinth struggled at the box office but became a beloved cult classic
• Our favourite scenes, quotes and moments from the maze

Nearly 40 years later, Labyrinth still feels like pure movie magic - a fantasy world built by hand, packed with unforgettable creatures and Bowie’s unmistakable musical energy.

But does it still hold up today?

Join us as we rewind Labyrinth.
