However, I finally decided upon images of goths in horror movies. I myself don't claim to be "goth", but if I had to pick a subculture to belong to, the goth culture would definitely be it! I love the dark aesthetic, the music, the clothing, the makeup and the romance! I just love it all!
Winona Ryder as Lydia in Beetlejuice!
And so I set out on a quest to find images of goths in horror flicks. I decided that most vampire flicks featuring latex-clad club-goers were too easy, so you won't find many of those images here. Oh, and I'm supposed to tag people, but I'm not gonna. Instead, if you read this and want to participate, consider yourself tagged to come up with your own set of images in horror films.
Below you'll find a variety of images and a variety of goths that have appeared in horror flicks:
Kim Director in Blair Witch 2: Book of Shadows
Alexis Arquette in Bride of Chucky
Dani Filth in Cradle of Fear
David Bowie and Catherine Deneuve in The Hunger
Violet from Friday the 13th Part 5
(a bit more New Wave than Goth, but I included her anyway!)
Katharine Isabelle and Emily Perkins in Ginger Snaps
Kyle Gallner in Jennifer's Body
Asia Argento in Land of the Dead
Rainbow Harvest in Mirror Mirror
Return of the Living Dead 3
Sangre Eterna
Julin in Sweatshop
Krystal Freeman in Sweatshop
Fairuza Balk in The Craft
The Rage: Carrie 2
Urban Legend
Danielle Harris in Urban Legend
The Crow
Elvira: Mistress of the Dark
Tim Burton's Vincent
This is by no means an all-inclusive list, so if you can think of any other goths in horror flicks just leave 'em in the comments below!
Lol! Vincent in Tim Burton's short film was absolutely hilarious! I also liked the goth girl in The Craft.
ReplyDeleteI loved every choice here. Goths rule!
ReplyDeleteOooh Dani Filth! I think he is pretty hot for a gothic dude. I love Violet as well.
ReplyDeleteI was actually going to do mine on gothic people, but then decided to do the big hair thing instead. I'm glad you did it. Great post!
You have done a fine job there my dear. Great list. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteCheers!
Ha, how funny, I tagged you too! http://www.scaresarah.com/2010/08/hello-hello-hello-hello-hello-hello.html What a great idea.
ReplyDeleteKim Director was INCREDIBLY hot in Blair Witch 2. The best part about the entire movie. Also, I wouldn't exactly call Bridgett and Ginger goths, per se, in Ginger Snaps. They're misfits, certainly, and have a peculiar style, but they don't really rock the all black and pancake face.
ReplyDeleteAh, but you don't have to rock the all black and heavy makeup to be goth...Bridget and Ginger are entranced by the darker aesthetic of life and I think that's what makes them beautifully goth. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, very thanks by the list. I am very grateful for these movies. I'm brazilian and i love goth movies. If you have more movies after year 2000, please send me the name to my e-mail: viniciosdasilvamartins@gmail.com Thanks
ReplyDeleteKyle Gallner looked sexy as hell as a goth!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the gothic look inspired by the heroes of the film. I really like the look of Brandon Lee in "Crow", "Lydia Deetz" in "Beetlejuice". Even the look of Vincent is not bad ...
ReplyDeleteI recommend another great look: vampires of Interview with the Vampire. Their costumes are great!
Brandon Lee <3
ReplyDeleteThe kids of vampire Clan are too. The addams family, The two main characters of Gypsy 83. The doom generation Amy blue [kinda]
ReplyDeleteThe goth kid in Jennifer's Body and the NoES remake is too pouty and sad for my tastes. I like my goths more Fairuza Balk in the Craft.
ReplyDeleteWhat about Angela from Night of the Demons (the original movie from 1988)???
