Frankenstein, The Haunting, and The Innocents are among the greatest Gothic horror movies ever made.
The horror genre is so prevalent within cinema that the term "horror movie" hardly needs a definition. They're movies that are scary. They aim to unnerve viewers. But within the horror genre are various subgenres, and each tends to have unique ways in which they attempt to scare, frighten, and unsettle audiences who feel brave enough to sit in the dark and watch them for two hours .
At 72 minutes, it's also a breeze to watch, with the interesting characters and their interactions inside the titular house being more than engaging to sustain an entire movie. It's not the most essential or impactful piece of gothic horror cinema out there, but its quirkiness and entertainment value still make it a winner.
21 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' In 1890, Oscar Wilde penned The Picture of Dorian Gray, which centered on a man who was able to stay youthful while his likeness in a portrait aged in his place. 55 years later, it got a film adaptation that holds up surprisingly well, and is an example of a decades-old horror movie that still manages to feel eerie to this day.
19 'Dracula' It's inevitable that various Dracula movies are going to show up in any conversation around gothic horror, because the character's intrinsically linked to this subgenre. The 1958 adaptation of Bram Stoker's classic 1897 novel of the same name isn't the very best one of all time, but it provides more than enough value as a movie to be worth checking out.
It's a film that moves slowly but steadily, and more than ensures things are worth sticking with as events progress in interesting directions. Nicole Kidman gives a solid performance in the lead role, too, and The Others also benefits from feeling appropriately otherworldly and disquieting for much of its duration.
14 'Bram Stoker's Dracula' People who know Francis Ford Coppola mostly from movies like Apocalypse Now and those in The Godfather trilogy might be surprised to learn he made a remarkably good Dracula movie, too. 1992's Bram Stoker's Dracula is certainly a good deal racier and gorier than most adaptations in the past, like those popular in the 1930s and the Hammer Horror ones from the 1950s onwards.
The story is what you'd expect, but it's all very well done for its time, and Lugosi is revelatory in the titular role . Also worth noting is the fact that it was shot at the same time as a Spanish language remake/alternate cut, with some believing that version to be superior as a work of gothic horror.
