More Gothic Films

 Jonathon Demme, (1991) The Silence of the Lambs [ONLINE] Available at: http://putlocker.bz/watch-the-silence-of-the-lambs-online-free-putlocker.html [Accessed 14th April 14]

I really like the idea of putting cannibalism into my characters and the Hannibal Lector films draw me in even more. He's so frightening as you never know when he's gonna strike next on the rest with his manipulative cleverness. It's almost disturbing but not as disturbing as the guy that sews up women's skin. So freaky.
 Richard Kelly, (2001) Donnie Darko [ONLINE] Available at: http://putlocker.bz/watch-donnie-darko-online-free-putlocker.html [Accessed 17th April 14]

I love love love Donnie Darko! After watching this I couldn't stop thinking about it and trying to understand everything about it. I looked up the twist and facts of the film after and got so interested. I think the best films out there are the ones that make you think or feel something afterwards.
 James Whale, (1935) The Bride of Frankenstein [ONLINE] Available at: http://putlocker.bz/watch-bride-of-frankenstein-online-free-putlocker.html [Accessed 17th April 14]

Barry Sonnenfield, (1991) The Addams Family [ONLINE] Available at: http://megashare.info/watch-the-addams-family-online-TXpjMU5nPT0 [Accessed 17th April]

These two films have very similar themes in the way they are set out. Both including a frankenstein character and very typically gothic themed with the black colours used and pale skin. I think Wednesday Addams draws me in the most because of her hairstyles and how they were similar to the hairstyle I tried out in class which was hair slicked back  behind the ears with a clean centre parting.
