I'm currently studying Gothic for my English Extension 1 Class. My core text is The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde by R.L Stevenson.
My related texts, so far, are quite limited. I have an episode of X Files entitled "The Post Modern Prometheus" which is an allegory of Frankenstein.
I'm unsure of what other related texts I can use, as I am trying to go along with the main vein of the idea that not everything is as it seems and a duality of appearance or purpose.
Are there any related materials that spring to your mind that I could possibly investigate? Thank you.

Virtual Reality if you are going for the idea of Apperance and Reality, Othello also or Underworld Revolution, Aeon Flux, or
City and The Sea (can't remember who wrote it)

Wuthering Heights is a great Gothic novel.
I'm not sure if it fits with your argument... but i just thought i'd mention it anyway.
