The Dark Crystal/Fraggle Rock Mash-Up You Never Knew You Needed

Michael Garcia - May 6, 2016

I am a HUGE fan of the work of the late Jim Henson, who isn't? People without a heart, that's who. But as much as I love The Muppets and Sesame Street, I think I equally love his weirder projects as well. We all know and love Labyrinth with the David Bowie and his package, (respect), but I also am all about The Dark Crystal. Yes, it terrified me as a child because...well...it's terrifying. The story of a Gelfling named Jen seeking to heal a magical crystal before some giant bird lizards kill him and his girlfriend are a classic. I was also an avid watcher of Henson's groundbreaking HBO series Fraggle Rock which told the tale of some underground creatures who love radishes for some reason. The Hensons had a Dark Crystal fan film competition and this video was one of the submissions. 

What's it about? One of the Mystics from The Dark Crystal runs into Mokey Fraggle in a lonely forest. It's all inspiring and deep, man. I suggest firing up whatever recreational products you have lying around. It will blow your mind.
