I Am The Goblin King

 

 (imdb)

LABYRINTH-1986-A lonely girl Sarah (Jennifer Connelly), who fantasizes about goblins and such wishes her baby brother would be kidnapped by goblins. Her wish comes true and The Goblin King (David Bowie) tells her she has 13 hours to rescue him from the labyrinth. She meets lots of wacky Muppets, some who seem to be talking Monty Python inspired dialogue (Terry Jones wrote the original script). 

Bowie sings a song backed by his Muppet horde. And there's other musical numbers and a chaotic battle. In the end Sara must find a way to rescue little bro from the MC Escher inspired labyrinth. 

This imaginative musical fantasy is a combination of music, puppets and sfx directed by Muppets creator Jim Henson who had their own TV show from 1976-1981. Connelly was in Dario Argento's PHENOMENA the year before this.

Goblin

 

 (imdb)

GOBLIN-2020-A goblin hiding in the basement of a newlywed couple's basement (summoned by the previous owner) kills in various extremely gory ways. The acting isn't great and there's some sound problems but at least it isn't full of itself. After the goblin is killed, zombies attack and kill the rest of the cast. The director Scott Lando directed other movies and was also a cinematographer.

Thanks for reading and Happy Mother's Day to all you mother out there!
