Penny Dreadful - Blog Posts
Gothic Western is one of my favorite sub-genres to sit with and enjoy. Now, I have started Preacher based on several recommendations but when I went to watch it Netflix played the last episode first and I was ignorant to the fact until pretty far in, so I had the a lot of the ending spoiled. I want to go back but I find the motivation hard to find. Also, special mention to Penny Dreadful and Supernatural for being super formative for Dead West but neither really sits firmly within Western Gothic.
Inspired by our friends @theholmwoodfoundation who posted theirs here as well. Be sure to check out their show! If you do, leave them a rating/review and let them know the team from Dead West sent ya!

Bram Stoker's Dracula, 1992.

β¨π§π»Happy Dracula Day!!!π§π»β¨
Bram Stoker's novel enjoyed considerable success at the time of its publication, but the vehicle that really propelled Dracula to worldwide fame was the staggering number of cinematic adaptations.
Dracula is still used as a model for the development of countless characters from the most varied segments. From horror, romance, and even action, Dracula is a versatile figure.
With its pale skin, sharp fangs and pointed ears or a handsome face free of stereotypical features, the bloodsucking monster has persisted as the embodiment of the vampire archetype for over a century.
I wish I could round up all the faces that played him, but that's a big list. So here are some more names that brought Dracula to life:
β’ Frank Langella (Dracula, 1979).
β’ Leslie Nielsen (Dracula, 1995).
β’ Rudolf Martin (Buffy, 2000).
β’ Gerard Butler (Dracula, 2000).
β’ George Hamilton (Dracula, 1979).
β’ Adam Sandler (Hotel Transylvania, 2012).
β’ Nicholas Cage (Renfield, 2023).
Outlander, Game of Thrones, Penny Dreadful
Feeling vulnerable for sharing my vice-watching but canβt wait to see the outpouring of responses, photos, and gifs for these shows in the coming months. On the edge of my seat.
Please do not fear for me. I have no fear myself. The old monsters are gone. The old curses have echoed to silence. And if my immortal soul is lost to me, something yet remains. I remain..
