Netflix Debuted Some Characters For Their Prequel To “The Dark Crystal”
Netflix is making a prequel to the nightmare-inducing horror show that is The Dark Crystal, and they just released a sneak peek at what some of the Gelfling characters will look like. What’s a Gelfing, you say? Well, it’s a shrunken down elf looking mother fucker that’s been run through one too many SnapChat filters. They’re also the heroes in Jim Henson’s 1982 original film and will be back, this time wearing a lot of bronzer, for Netflix’s 10-part series that will air sometime next year.
