The Height of Goth: A Night at the Xclusiv Nightclub
About this film
The Height Of Goth, subtitled A Night at the Xclusiv nightclub, Batley, West Yorkshire. This is a rare treat for fans of both Goth culture and also Northern English culture in general. You gotta love those Yorkshire accents, and if you lived in a town called “Batley”, wouldn’t YOU consider opening a Goth club? At two hours and ten minutes The Height Of Goth is a bit of a slog, but there are some good interviews to keep you entertained. This film has been rescued from an old mildewed-and-damaged VHS cassette tape so the quality in the first few minutes is pretty poor, but it settles down fine just in time for the action inside the club. The original video was commissioned by the couple who ran the club (Annie and Pete Swallow) and was distributed amongst family, friends and regulars. It cost £2 at the time. This is the complete full length video as originally presented.
