Gothic

1987 88 min R Horror

Conjure up your deepest, darkest fear... now call that fear to life.

A chateau on Lake Geneva’s black December shores. Candles gutter low as Shelley recites a ghost story—until the walls themselves start whispering back. Exhaling ether-sweet smoke, the party dares shadows to shape-shift, but the shapes start answering. A Gothic summer storm collapses onto Ken Russell’s fever-dream apparatus—let the audience decide which ghosts arrived first.

Directed by Ken Russell · Written by Stephen Volk, Lord Byron, Percy Bysshe Shelley

Starring Gabriel Byrne, Julian Sands, Natasha Richardson, Myriam Cyr, Timothy Spall, Alec Mango
