- The Dark Crystal, ou Dark Crystal est un film de marionnettes de fantasy de Jim Henson. N'ayant connu qu'un demi-succès malgré sa réalisation reconnue magnifique, il ne fut pas connu et malgré une idée de suite en 2009, il n'y eut jamais d'autres films dans le même Univers. Le film ne met en scène aucun humain mais uniquement des créatures de l'imagination du réalisateur. La première version du film fut remaniée pour un autre film définitif.

- The Dark Crystal is a 1982 American–British fantasy film directed by Jim Henson and Frank Oz. The plot revolves around Jen, an elflike 'Gelfling' on a quest to restore balance to his alien world by returning a lost shard to a powerful but broken gem. Although marketed as a family film, it was notably darker than the creators' previous material. The animatronics used in the film were considered groundbreaking. The primary concept artist was the fantasy illustrator Brian Froud, famous for his distinctive faerie and dwarf designs. Froud also collaborated with Henson and Oz for their next project, the 1986 film Labyrinth, which was notably more light-hearted than The Dark Crystal. The film stars the voices of Stephen Garlick, Lisa Maxwell and Billie Whitelaw.
