So many movies ... so little time ...

On this day in 1986 (in the United Kingdom), Gothic -- a Gothic chiller from Virgin Vision -- was first screened when it debuted for audiences of the BFI London Film Festival.  Directed by Ken Russell from a story attributed to Stephen Volk, Lord Byron, and Percy Bysshe Shelley, the film starred Gabriel Byrne, Julian Sands, Natasha Richardson, and others. 

​According to our friends at IMDB.com, here's the plot summary:


"The Shelleys visit Lord Byron and compete to write a horror story."

For the record:
To the film's credit, Gothic enjoyed a fair amount of praise from screenings on the film festival circuit.
