[zombielust1969]

R.I.P. Ken Russell...

[Eramoon]

Salut l'artiste, repose en paix...

[MaraudingSoundness]

omg! I have searched everywhere for this movie, I couldn't remember the title its been a decade. And tonight I found it - Just like that. amazing!

Why is this movie so hard to find?

[EpifanesEuergetes]

I love Ken Russell, and this is my favourite by him. A true masterpiece.

Funny how the trailer presents all the horror scenes of the movie. I guess the marketeers of the film company thought: "let's sell this as a horror flick, nobody wants to see a bunch of poets getting drunk and high and having group sex and argueing metaphysics" but it's those elements that make this film so unique, so brilliant.

[GAIASDREAMER]

The film is creepy and captures a good storm and dark moments. It is incredible that Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein at 18 and I believe The Vampyre was born that night too that Polidori wrote. It was originally an idea of Byron's but he later dismissed the idea. Still trying to find a copy of The Vampyre. Thanks for sharing. I love the trailer.

[Leeccdoo2]

This movie was fucking brilliant! A pure classic!! I loved it. :)

[BRm2008]

RIP natasha richardson

[Patriciameadows]

I own the fullscreen US DVD release, which is fair. I just ordered the region 2 DVD from the U.K. The quality should be much better as it is an MGM release, and it's in widescreen. Great movie.

[TheGB1950]

@Patriciameadows Wow to have an orig DVD off this obscure film, I only have a DVD that was copied off TV you must be a real Ken Russel fan or a real physiological horror film buff.

[RuffysDarlin]

I saw that movie yesterday.. just switched through the channels..

and it really freaked me out..

the old horror stuff is so much creepier than these new super-special effected movies from today...

[bastardfingers]

There's a painting on the stairs of Byron. Christopher Hobbs did it and it's now rolled up in the cupboard at the end of my corridor! Honest!

[Hansjakopp]

0:57

[LedZeppTroy]

Comes on IFC tonight at 12:00 part of thier grindhouse marathon all this month at 12:00!

[btr2oz]

I love Gabriel Byrne but have never seen this film. It looks pretty bizaar but two people below this posted that they love it. Hope to see it some day.

[redcushion24]

bloody oath it was weird! and what was with that creepy stripping mannequin? bahaha

[evandylan]

yeah this movie is good, but this didnt happen, its just a myth about mary shelley and lord byron...

[gothxangelajana]

if any ppl watching this and want to meet a goth girl get in touch with me

[slapproductions]

This movie owns. Watch it when you have a fever. No shit, the delirium from the fever adds a lot to the experience.

[VyleKyle]

@slapproductions This I certainly wouldn't doubt.

[gothixangeli]

i wish there would be more gothic videos on youtube and more guys that want to date a gothic girl

[uptown1317]

this movie is really creepy

[Laudanum000]

True, I see a lot of people complaining that the film is too weird, but if they knew anything about the characters, they'd easily understand it...

[sillygrl23]

Wow, awesome movie! I can't wait to see it on here! :)

[GothicAngelinaa88]

if any ppl watching this and want to meet a goth girl get in touch with me

[Drizzlerman]

yeah I betcher are

[adordunio1]

Natasha never looked better!

[mdryden02]

She is more beautiful here than ever.

[lozziecap]

I'd love to see this film, if only to see Gabriel half-naked and covered in brown ooze.

[radioman970]

Some overacting here and there, but really a fun film about a group of carefree people. I love it! I've had the hots for Natasha even before I know who she was...because of this film. A real shame about what happened to her.

[lildof2001]

Who or WHAT is that at 0:08?! That shadow used to scare me when I was younger when I use to watch 'THE GATE' and this preview was on it

[mdryden02]

That's Frankenstein. Natasha plays Mary Shelley, the author of Frankenstein here. Is this movie, they are suggesting that she conceived the idea for her book, Frankenstein, on this night.

[mdryden02]

Natasha is beautiful and a stunning ator here, as always. Our loss is so great.

The lost to her family is inestimable.

Just bought Gothic on ebay.

[AshLuvsJonnyStew]

Just saw this the other day and loved it! Wish it was on Blu-ray!

[MCRDez]

i saw this movie and loved it

stupid question time, was this ever a book, i mean, this movie?

:P please dont laugh at my stupidity

[qmoongb]

Unless they did a 'novelization' of this movie, no.

[jasonhenderson]

MC, there are a couple of books that cover the Villa Diodati party featured in the movie, though never as weird as the movie. Mary Shelley writes a version of it in the introduction to Frankenstein. Meanwhile Christopher Frayling does a long discussion of it in his book Vampyres: Lord Byron to Count Dracula.

[ysbaddaden2003]

Dr John Polidori mentions it some in his introduction to his tale The Vampyre.

[mdryden02]

It is based on history--Romantic poets Byron and Shelley (17th Century). Mary Shelley (Natasha) is the author of Frankenstein, whose figure is shown at 0:8 here. This particular night is partly fictional, yet it is based in the fact that Mary Shelley will later write Frankenstein.

Byron and Shelley wrote volumes of poetry.

[brainsofsass]

Ok, first of all - its 19th Century not 17th. Also, it is based on the night that Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein. Percy Shelley and Lord Byron were there among others and they were all just freaking each other out, telling ghost stories and stuff, then Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein.

[jay22902]

@MCRDez lmao

[MultipleExperiments]

@MCRDez The director ( Ken Russell ) Is my best friend's grandad.

[mcrmaog4life]

So, my literature teacher sent an assignment which was to recreate this night using our imagination and writing it down as a story. I think it's gonna be challenging but exciting. Anyways, if anybody has any ideas for me please message : D

[mdryden02]

Romanticism in literarure and art, etc; opium, sex, (no disrespect to Natasha), some research on Byron, Shelley, Mary, and their relationships, also Frankenstein,  and the mivies of Ken Russell.

[edmame]

that wordless scene of sands brushing her hair is brilliant. without doing a thing i believed her shelley really exists. a great, dreamy moment. RIP natasha.

[edmame]

beautiful, dear natasha. we will miss you.

[magicalmisstery]

Natasha - Rest In Peace - You will be missed dearly.

[Laudanum000]

Well, I've heard of one particular release of "Gothic" that had two trailers, almost identical, only one was slightly longer than the other, but I can't say which one it was... :(

So I assume you've never seen the remastered version?

[Laudanum000]

One of my all-time favourite films! Thanks for posting! And BTW, do you know in what DVD release I can find this?

[qmoongb]

The current DVD release of this film is almost useless. I was the producer of the trailer. Not sure it exists on any other releases of the film.
