With Fall officially here and October days away, here are some atmospheric, moody Gothic horror movies that bring the Halloween vibes now available on streaming:
Five Gothic Horror Movies to Stream This Week
Atmosphere plays a crucial role in Gothic Horror in a way that complements Fall well. That’s also reflected in Gothic horror’s themes of death or good versus evil, made more ominous by gloomy settings...

I think we need to bring wall-to-wall shag carpeting back. Fight me.

My first thought on seeing Dustin Yellin's art was "Annihilation" (especially the visual design of the film). https://bit.ly/TheNightVault

At 1600 square miles, the exclusion zone surrounding Chernobyl has, oddly, become Europe’s largest wildlife sanctuary. Turns out there's one thing worse for the environment than radiation, and it might just be us. https://bit.ly/TheNightVault

Trailer is pretty chilling - all I can say is the dog better make it. Otherwise me and Woofy will raise hell. Although honestly, that's all in a day's work for her anyway.

YOU, HUMAN, Vol. 2 update! "Under the Skin" by @jlincolnfenn.bsky.social will have you think twice before taking in that stray, or when calling out for your pet late at night and all you hear in the distance is a soft tingle-lingle-ling from their collar. @lukespoonerartist.bsky.social.

SHIP OF FOOLS

We're setting sail to the place on the map
From which no one has ever returned
Drawn by the promise of the joker and the fool
By the light of the crosses that burned

I saw a video the other day of a couple who transformed a school bus into a cozy house, and a jumping spider crept in and they thought it was super cute so they built it its own spider house and fed it grubs as they toodled around. Which also sounds a lot like alien abduction if you think about it.

Hearing that American AI is experiencing a bloodbath on the Nasdaq today. Erm, maybe if you’re a company worth billions you don’t rip off the copyrighted work of #horror creatives? For…reasons.
