Another world, another time!
We’re back at it again with The Dark Crystal, the Jim Henson Company’s epic fantasy tale, and diving head-first into the new Netflix series, and. it’s. AMAZING!
A dark and twisted tale, The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance is not only frightening, menacing, and undeniably sinister, it’s romantic, heart-warming, and awe-inspiring! It’s the sort of show that only comes along every once in a while, the sort of creativity and majesty one can only dream of! By golly, you need to watch it!
If you need some convincing, then press that play button, because I’m going to do my best to sell this to everyone I can. Trust me, it’s worth it!
Tune in weekly for new episodes of Cinematic Doctrine!
The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance is Rated TV PG and contains a warning about flashing lights that may cause epileptic seizures, but has no detailed certificate otherwise. So, here’s my own certificate: Violence, frightening images, and thematic elements.
