Gothic (1987)

Ken Russell's "Gothic" plunges into the fevered, hallucinatory night that supposedly inspired Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein." Horror and period drama collide into a fever-dream of sex, madness, and creative obsession among Lord Byron's circle. Natasha Richardson stars as Mary Shelley herself. Her performance leans into the film's unhinged, candlelit sensuality. The site carries just 1 scene clip from the film. It captures Richardson baring skin amid the movie's chaotic atmosphere. For fans of the actress or excess-drenched arthouse horror, it's a brief but worthwhile glimpse.
