UNIT 3

GOTHIC LIT.
- Gothic Lit. is characterized by grotesque characters, bizzare situations, and violent events.
- Romanticism plays a big roll in Gothic Lit. also by setting a different kind of mood in the story or movie.
- American Gothic is cavernous gothic cathedrals with random towers and high stained glass windowns to inspire awe and fear to the viewers.
- Gargoyales were intended to ward off evil spirits
You can find almost all of these things in any movie but if they aren't with each other then the movie cant be concidered a Gothic movie.
