Lost Girl goes underground for “SubterrFaenean” while single-handedly supporting the entire Canadian push-up bra industry. I’m actually going to talk about folklore and the limits of Lost Girl’s progressiveness this week, but I figured I’d start off with a boob joke. Kenzi and Vex are visiting some kind of underground sightseeing club thing with Kenzi’s human friend Ozzy. Ozzy points out that Vex looks like Robert Smith, and my wife observes that Vex is essentially Spike from Buffy. During the show, people are snatched away […]

It’s 1967. We start out with a little Kit in his skivvies. That’s right, actor Evan Peters has stripped down once again for us in the episode titled, “Continuum”. Alas, he was semi covered in blood, and carrying an ominous axe, but still, skivvy’s folks! Ahem. We see Kit’s dysfunctional home complete with two “wives” and two kids. The tune of “Let’s Live for Today” is playing in the background. Foreshadowing? Perhaps. Grace sketches detailed charcoal pictures of what she calls The Doctor. It looks […]

Face Off has returned with 14 new contestants showing off their makeup and creature design skills for a panel of Hollywood veterans. This week, it’s goblin kings all the way down. The contestants meet up and dive right into the foundation challenge, which offers immunity from elimination as the top prize. Offered a selection of crowns, they have to create queens to go with them. There were some very beautiful pieces, but Anthony’s stood out with a prosthetic smoothly blended into the design of his […]

Lost Girl, season three has finally arrived! The show that single-handedly keeps the Canadian eye liner and mascara industry in business. And why waste any time? Let’s start right off with an homage to “girls in prison” exploitation films. When last season ended, there were a few plot lines left dangling. Bo used her grandma’s magic soul essence to bring Trick (who is her grandfather) back to life instead of eradicating the darkness within herself. Now you know Bad Bo is in town when her […]

Talk about your weird sexual fetishes, in American Horror Story: Asylum, Episode 11, “Spilt Milk”, drinking breast milk from prostitutes. In true Bloody Face fashion, Johnny Thredson, son of Bloody Face and Lana, admits he’d ‘kill for it’. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree here. With daddy needing a twisted mother figure, Johnny seems to as well, nursing from a grown woman and all. Kit is brought from isolation in a straight jacket to see his son supposedly before his circumcision, but can […]

Face Off returns to SyFy on January 15 for a fourth season, with a new cast of make-up and creature design contenders vying for the top prize. What famous faces will we see, and what challenges will they face? If you head over to SyFy’s Face Off page, you can watch the audition videos of all of season four’s contestants. Looking through them, it’s quite a mixed bag. There are people into super-realistic, subtle make-up effects, people who love outlandish creatures, and even a few […]

A number of Gothic.net staffers spent the week around New Year’s in Las Vegas. There was no Mayan apocalypse, but we got a little apocalyptic on our own. Besides staying up late, gambling, and drinking unusual mixed beverages, we also went to the DoubleDown to see some band I never heard of. The DoubleDown is this tiny little club, which seems to contain most of the Las Vegas dark club life, at least the portion which does not include domination upsells. I go to a […]

The third season of supernatural crime drama Lost Girl is set to kick off on SyFy next week, so now is the perfect time to get caught up on everything that’s already happened in the fae world. Dark fae? Light fae? We’ll get you sorted out with this Lost Girl primer. Lost Girl is basically a sexier, sluttier (as always, I mean that in the most positive sense) Buffy the Vampire Slayer. All the core concepts are there: a supernatural world hidden from humans; a […]

Hold on to your liquor flasks and grab your aluminum caps folks. It looks like we just lost two of our main characters. What? Could it be? Could the deliciously demonic Sister Mary and torturous Dr. Arden really be dead? In episode 10 of American Horror Story: Asylum, “The Name Game”, the show came back from a mid-season break with a little bit of fun and a whole lot of shock. Dr. Arden successfully revives Kit from his experiment to get the aliens to revisit. […]
