I saw this movie in the late 80’s, or maybe even the early 90’s…I think I saw it on HBO, but it could have been VHS – I was at a friend’s house and I was pretty young so I can’t completely remember. This wizard guy steals a baby and his mother has to go find him and get him back through some crazy fantasy land. If she doesn’t get him back by a certain time, the baby has to stay there forever….the woman keeps getting tricked by the wizard but she eventually outsmarts him and gets her baby back.
It was kind of strange, and I’ve never heard of it afterwards so it might have been low budget or something.
It sounds like you’re talking about The Labyrinth (1986), but some details are off so I could be wrong

Oh wow, David Bowie and Jennifer Connely are in it! I though this was some low budget, weird unheard of movie that I wasn’t going to be able to find. Thanks
Thanks Robin!
