The Hands

The special effects in this movie are incredible, especially for a movie made in the eighties.  Jim Henson’s puppets are a great substitute for computer animated creatures, for puppet are 3d and actually interact with the actors whereas comuter images don’t.

The above pictures demonstrate the great artistic ability of Jim Henson. In the scene, he turns a group of human hands into one of Jareth’s traps that can grab you, and talk to you.
