how to become a goth

taking a break from slamming the media, this 50's style instructional film offers tongue-in-cheek tips on becoming a goth and spiting authority figures (from film student and industrial DJ Jay Kantor):

So You've Decided You Want To Become a Goth

the humor is mostly aimed at folks involved in the goth/industrial club scene (and fans of goth-comedy band the Gothsicles), and to some degree rehashes inside jokes about sp00ky pseudonyms and the fine line between pretentious and poseur. still, it's nice to see a bit of self-produced subcultural media rather than predictable sensationalizing accounts in the popular press.
