Never go THAT way!
So, I dunno what prompted it, but tonight I kept picturing and remembering the worm from labyrinth. He was always one of my favorite characters in the movie, brief as his scene may have been. It was just a cheerful, helpful little worm, who wanted nothing more than to have you “come inside, an’ meet the Misses.” That’s one the things I always loved about Henson movies, small one-shot or background characters that always stuck with you. Anyway, here’s my rendition of him. I drew it pretty much from memory, so don’t yell at me for not getting him quite right, I haven’t seen the movie in quite some time!
I like him – your rendition, and the character himself. I wonder if he has a name? It always freaked me out thinking that, if Sarah had listened to him, she would have got to the castle immediately, but then the movie wouldn’t have happened, or would be too short… what a dilemma.
He is just “The Worm” – I checked IMDb. You were right, Sean.
