Mirrormask
2 June 2006 20:51I bought Neil Gaiman's Mirrormask.
Freaky, surreal, bizzare. I loved it. It's Labyrinth without the cute. And David Bowie's codpiece.

"It was commissioned by Sony from Hensons as a straight to DVD film, like "Kermit's Swamp Years"; everything it did after it was made -- getting into Sundance, the Edinburgh Festival, and managing to get a limited art house release -- was on its own merits. It's now out on DVD, selling even better than was expected, and gathering an audience."
