I've been rattling my brain for about a year to remember this film... What is the name of the film with the underground digger creature and the crystal?
It's a lot like a non fantasy world dark crystal think it's set in New York.. but not dark crystal or labyrinth before anyone answers as that.. He comes above ground in search of a lost crystal or stone that it needs for plot line, they look like gelflings and have tough skin... anyway I don't remember much except they don't want to be seen by the humans and move faster than human eyes can see. I think he gets help from a cop... talking 80's early 90's here. Really is doing my head in. Looks like a henson rip off puppet
