Happy World Goth Day!

I spent World Goth Day (eve) the same way I have for the past three years. We are lucky enough in Toronto to have an annual event hosted by Liisa Ladouceur every year. We spend the evening watching beautiful Gothic movies on the big screen at The Royal Cinema in TO. This year's movie selection was Interview With The Vampire. What a treat it was to see this movie once again on the big screen! Every time I watch this movie I feel like doing a marathon reading all those vampire books again. If only I had more hours in the day to read everything I wanted to. Sigh.

It's funny how seeing a movie like Interview With The Vampire, which I have seen about a 1000 times before, can look so different in large scale on the big screen. You notice all the little details of the costumes and set design that you might have missed before. This movie has spectacular costumes. All the lace and silk is so beautiful on Louie and Lestat! 

Mmmm... Antonio. 

Of course since this was a special outing I donned my best Vampire outfit for the occasion. Yes, Vampires do go to the movies! Here's proof. 

I would like to say a special thanks to Liisa Ladouceur for organizing this fun event every year. She is a very talented writer of both the Encyclopedia Gothica and How to Kill a Vampire. She debuted a short film she made on the 40 years of Goth Fashion last night as well. I'm sure it will be released very soon. Here is the teaser for it. She even put together some Vampire Hunter kits for the evening!

Happy World Goth Day!
