"Gothic" is a 1986 film directed by Ken Russell. It starred Gabriel Byrne as Lord Byron, Julian Sands as Percy Bysshe Shelley, Natasha Richardson as Mary Shelley and Timothy Spall as Dr John William Polidori. It features a soundtrack composed by Thomas Dolby.

The film is a lurid and highly fictionalized tale based on the famous challenge to write a horror story, made at Byron's villa on Lake Geneva, that led to Mary Shelley's writing "Frankenstein".

The image on the cover directly recalls Henry Fuseli's painting The Nightmare.
