David Bowie Has an Awesome Package

That's evidently what Muppet Master and director of "Labyrinth" Jim Henson wants you to notice. If you've never seen this film (shame on you) it follows the bitchy teenage girl Sarah, aptly played by Jennifer Connelly of Rocketeer fame. Her baby brother Toby, oddly dressed in a red and white striped one-zy, won't stop crying so naturally she wishes that he would be taken by the goblin king. Well her dreams come true and she has to go to a strange muppet filled world. All these characters are interesting but the real star of the film is David Bowie's pronounced area.


Bowie, named Jareth the goblin king, thrusts his way through a thoroughly enjoyable role where he terrorizes Sarah and for some reason wants to keep Toby. Henson in a stroke of genius made Bowie as creepy as possible by putting him in these grey tights that accentuated his unit. Sadly I couldn't find any good shots of the region, but I assure you if you rent the film you will have David Bowie's package etched in your mind.
