Films and TV shows that feel like Wuthering Heights by Kate Bush
A gothic, ghostlike yearning that blurs the line between obsessive romance and haunting tragedy.
- Crimson Peak (2015): It mirrors the song's grand gothic aesthetic, crumbling mansions, and bleeding ghosts of the past.
- Penny Dreadful (2014): Both capture Victorian supernatural dread mingled with intense, suffering passion.
- The Beguiled (2017): Shares the same claustrophobic tension of isolated characters caught in a web of repressed desire and dark atmosphere.
- Jane Eyre (2011): It embodies the exact literary sisterhood of desolate English landscapes and tormented romance.
- Twin Peaks (1990): Echoes the eerie relationship between strange, beautiful female vulnerability and deep, dark surrounding woods.
- The Witch (2016): Captures the terror and ecstasy of becoming untethered in the wilderness under supernatural influence.
- Picnic at Hanging Rock (1975): Evokes the same trance-like, ethereal haunting where young women vanish into ancient, untamed nature.
- Rebecca (2020): Centers entirely on a lingering, ghostly presence that dominates the psyches of the living.
