As you are planning your Halloween movie marathon or just setting up a season of spooky cinematic offerings, don't forget the classic gothic horror genre. Gothic horror is the literary genre that brought us Frankenstein and Dracula, but an all-encompassing definition is difficult. Wikipedia has <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gothic_fiction">an extensive article</a> just to describe it. It can be defined as an aesthetic: a dark, eerily romantic setting and a plot filled with dread, guilt, introspection, and other feelings that modern slasher films don't bother to explore. Gothic horror is one of those things that you know when you see it, if you've seen enough of it. But there's always room for more. Den of Geek gives us <a href="https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/best-gothic-horror-movies/">a list of gothic horror flicks</a> ranging from 1940 to 1994 that stand the test of time. Each comes with a description and recommendation, but they are not ranked. Rather, the are presented in alphabetical order.
