trying to find a similar movie, need help


hey, so im trying to find a movie i saw a long time ago, i dont think i even saw much of it, maybe 30 minutes on tv. all i remember is that i think it was all puppets, alot like dark crystal style, and that there was a scene in the snow, or most of or atleast part of the movie took place in a snowy place.

i know its hardly any detail at all, but if anyone has any ideas of what it might be that would be awesome.

I remember this, and I've looking for this movie a long time, as I remember it was quite scary and it was about something that makes you hallucinate and the kill yourself, and it was really snowy....

Does anybody remember the title?????

reply

It was made on the first half of the 80's....

Have you tried the "I Need To Know" thread on the main board? Maybe there's someone there who can help you.


"David Warner, you are under arrest by order of David Warner!"

I ask in that board and they said that it could be "Young Sherlock Holmes", sounds pretty acurate.

This reply is sooo late... Could you be referring to The Argon Quest? Made in 1989/1990. Two kids find themselves in a magic land called Blizzard Island and must return a necklace to a sleeping giant. It's been over 15 years since I've last watched it (I own it, but never really cared for it). But it seems to fit the description you gave (humans and muppet rip-offs. Anyways, that's what I got.

The only old and similar movie I know is Legend. There you had a snowy night.

I am thinking they thought of "Legend" as well. It has Jack and the princess, and the demon cutting off the horns of unicorns to get their powers.
