(1986, dir. Jim Henson, w/ David Bowie, Jennifer Connelly, Toby Froud, Shelley Thompson)

Sorry, we can't confirm the starting time of the second film yet.

Whether you're a child of the 80s, a first time viewer or a David Bowie devotee you'll be stunned and amazed to see this incredible film now presented in 2K digital format on the Astor's Superscreen. A young Jennifer Connelly plays Sarah, who wants nothing more than for the goblins to take her half brother, baby Toby, away. But when Sarah's wish comes true and the Goblin King (a delightful or terrifying David Bowie in tights - depending on your preference) does take Toby away she is desperate to undo what was clearly a rash plea. Full of adventure, packed with quality family friendly humour and displaying what are simply the most stunning puppets ever created. TJ
