I bought Neil Gaiman's Mirrormask.

Freaky, surreal, bizzare. I loved it. It's Labyrinth without the cute. And David Bowie's codpiece.

Not quite straight-to-dvd ...

It was on very limited cinema release, mostly in art-house places, although we saw it at a large chain cinema here in Glasgow a while back. I believe it was shown randomly and for very limited runs around Australia, too ...

Actually it was planned to be a straight-to-DVD release:

On [livejournal.com profile] officialgaiman, from Neil's keyboard:

"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."
