Fun fact: The movie is directed by Dave McKean, an illustrator for Coraline, Yawjak Paw, The Sandman and Arkham Asylum: Serious House on Serious Earth. So the unsettling surrealistic designs and color palettes makes a whole lot of sense if you know who was behind it.

[@IamBardsongWolf]

I love that artstyle so cool!

[@16driver16]

I own the art book

[@briar7157]

As well as being based on the book by Neil Gaiman who also wrote Coraline and Sandman, and has written Batman issue: "Whatever Happened to the Caped Crusader?" ( :

I thought this movie didn't exist. I only remembered one thing about a movie, it being 'a giant being that talks slowly and gets taken over by darkness', and no matter where I looked, I couldn't find anything regarding it. As I watched this video, and it got to the scene with the giant beings, a switch clicked in my brain and I was like 'no fucking way'. This solved a massive question that had been in my head for countless years

[@Neogeddon]

Something about that scene is incredibly haunting, huh?

[@Spicy_Pacifist]

@@Neogeddon considering it was enough to stay in my brain when the whole idea of the movie went away, I'd say so

[@KalinTheZola]

I love when that happens. I had a similar experience with an old video game based on Clue but it was more of a point and click puzzle solving adventure game. I searched for it for years and years with no clue what it was only for Brutalmoose to come out with a recent livestream on his second channel where he played the very game I was starting to think had only been a fever dream from my point and click adventure days as a child.

[@Zathena]

I love how one giant is perpetually falling and the other one is anti gravity , so they both need each other so they can stay in place. One without the other cannot exist. I was heartbroken seeing them get separated. IT'S A LOVE STORY OKAY 😂

"Helena?! What kind of name is that? You should have a name with a bit of mystery and romance, like Valentine." "And what is your name?" "Valentine."

I adore the humor in this movie! "I'll never forget him. He was my best mate. Oh well onwards and upwards!" "Have you known him long?" "Who?"

[@a-supernova-girl]

I actually love Mirrormask. I first discovered it within a DVD box set accompanying The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth at Best Buy, several years back, and even though I watchex the two better known films many time as a kid, I have definitely watched Mirrormask more times than the other 2 put together as an adult. It just speaks to me.

MirrorMask is honestly one of my favorite movies from my childhood. The director is one of my favorite artists Dave McKean, who is very well known for collaborating with Neil Gaiman.

I remember my friend showing me this movie many years ago. I'd never seen anything like it before; it's so trippy and surreal, it scared me a few times! I watched it again not too long ago, and it's still one of my favorite unique, creepy, surreal fantasy movies. And of course the story was written by Neil Gaiman; he's involved in every movie/show I like, I swear...

OH MY GOD IT'S MY FAV MOVIE I GREW UP WITH I always loved how odd it was and how literally it took everything. And I feel like this whole dream logic stuff is what I vibed with particularly well as a kid. Because the real world around me didn't really make sense, and in contrast this somehow did. Plus it's just rly wholesome? It's like a rly tiny story, idk, gives me a very homey feeling.

I HAVE BEEN WANTING YOU TO COVER THIS MOVIE FOREEEEEVER. I WATCHED IT AS A KID AND FOR QUITE A LONG TIME I THOUGHT HALLUCINATED THE WHOLE DAMN THING BUT I LOVE IT SO MUCH

[@1D991]

I first saw this movie while spending the night at my aunt's when I was younger (like mid- or early-teens) at like 3am. Was just trying something to fall asleep to after partying with my cousin and it stuck with me, but I didn't know the title and any time I brought it up nobody has ever heard of it. Sick to see you covering it~

[@ryanb4940]

The song is actually a real song from 1970 by the Carpenters. The title is (Long to Be) Close to You. The Carpenters are one of my mom’s favorite groups. I grew up hearing their music. A highlight is actually their Christmas album which was recorded and completed after Carol Carpenter died… the album has many instrumental tracks which are all really good… but hearing Carol sing is truly the highlight. “Merry Christmas, Darling” is an original song and is absolutely beautiful. It’s a favorite of mine I love to listen to every year. She had a beautiful voice and I recommend going to listen to their songs. She unfortunately died from bulimia… which hasn’t been in the spotlight in a while but truly can be a killer. If you feel like you need to purge, please get help. It can and will kill you. And that’s no joke. Looking out for you all. You’re perfect and exactly as you were meant to be. Live your best life ❤

24:52 This is a total niche fun fact, but if you watch Mirrormask in a dark room with only the screen for your light, the otherworldly vignette sections make the lighting VERY strange around you, adding to the weird/creep factor by a LOT.

[@catabat49654]

The song during the mind control scene is “Close to You”, originally performed by the Carpenters. A lot of the Carpenters’ music tow the line between soft and pretty, and being almost creepy, making them a great choice to tweak slightly and make them so unsettling (like Sonic Youth’s cover of “Superstar”).

I read the book on Mirrormask back in High School, when my English professor showed she had that and also Coraline, from Neil Gaiman. What surprised me about Mirrormask was finding out that the book was written AFTER the movie. So, naturally, I went and watched the movie after reading the book. Fuckin' loved all of it.

I was introduced to this movie when I was like 11ish in an art class on a random movie day. THE most amazing experience ever. The volume was too low for me to understand anything but my eyes had a buffet that day, and I had to go home and rent it for a year before i got it for Christmas. Bonous points for it being inspired by Labyrinth. The "close to you" song is STILL my jam. Thats when i learned that i love music box music. ❤

[@Polyeurythane]

I love MirrorMask so much. It definitely helped change my perspective because I first watched/discovered it when I was a similar age to Helena, and her feelings and emotions felt like a reflection (hehe) of how I had been feeling. It made me feel seen.

[@sapphireSSEVD]

Oh my god yes! I remember watching this movie years ago with my family, and about 20 minutes in my parents turned it off for being to scary. I've been trying to figure out what the name of it was for years, Thank you for this review!

[@ogwheels3264]

im just losing my mind someone is talking about mirrormask. i have forced so many people to watch this movie, and honestly thought it was becoming lost media. thank you for talking about it ;___; i actually have the orbiting giants tattooed on my left arm i always thought the orbiting giants were symbols of helena's parents; they ran a circus together, were shown as sort of soulmates in helena's eyes, so through this the two stone giants are always linked, always together, their worlds orbiting around the other. when one giant is lost, the other giant holds on until the bitter end, until the first giant is forced to let go and is swallowed by darkness. i always thought this scene showed helena's mental state, knowing she might not just lose her mother, but her father might also lose the love of his life. i always thought it was sweet her mirror father had a longer speaking role, showing his soft timid side and devotion to the queen, again showing how her mother is her father's entire world and she is keenly aware of it

[@BernicePanders]
