Gothika [Blu-ray] Reviews
Gothika (2003) was an interesting film that I rate at three to four stars. I remember first hearing about this movie when it was being advertised on billboards in Manhattan. These made a visual impression on me causing me to make a mental note to see this film. By the time I followed up the film must have left theaters making me think it was not well received. I subsequently saw the DVD and thought it was an interesting film making several well taken points along its fanciful way concerning the advantage that can be taken of the loss of credibility of mental patients as witnesses to a true crime. The tale was a ghost story, but never entirely clear about what was real and what was imagined since we watched it through the eyes of a person believed to be criminally insane. Visually, I felt it had good atmosphere, was well filmed, nicely acted out, and rapidly paced leaving no time for looking back. The sets for the insane asylum were also very effective, convincing and frightening. There were enough blinking lights filmed to throw many people into a seizure (and give me a headache) which also probably added to the audiences feeling of being on edge. I think this was a good horror story and you may look at the reviews of others if you want to know what the story was about in any detail. By the way, the color and lighting was monochromatic blue for most scenes in the asylum, just like the billboard and DVD jacket.
