In this groundbreaking fantasy epic from Jim Henson and Frank Oz, the peaceful world of Thra is threatened by the evil Skeksis, who rule through the power of the shattered Dark Crystal. A young Gelfling named Jen (voiced by Stephen Garlick) embarks on a quest to restore the crystal and fulfill an ancient prophecy. Along the way, he encounters mystical creatures and allies, including the brave Kira (voiced by Lisa Maxwell). Featuring stunning puppetry and elaborate world-building, this visually captivating film is a timeless tale of good versus evil.
