This episode, hosts Phil and Sydnni return to the Dreamspace to dive into a spirited discussion just in time for the spooky season — could The Dark Crystal actually be considered a Halloween movie? With Fathom Events bringing Jim Henson’s fantasy classic back to theatres in October, the hosts explore the film’s darker tones, eerie atmosphere, and the haunting beauty that makes it a perfect addition to any Halloween watchlist.
From mysterious trailers that once scared theater audiences in 1982, to the film’s near-Christmas release and its potential as both a Halloween and Christmas classic, Phil and Sydnni unpack the uncanny magic that makes The Dark Crystal timeless. Along the way, they share updates from the wider Henson world and reflect on how the changing seasons — both in life and in Thra — always bring new reasons to return to The Dark Crystal.
