Venice 2018: Luca Guadagnino's 'Suspiria' is a Bewitching Blood Bath

“Tremble tremble!!! The witches are back…” Dario Argento’s original Suspiria from 1977 is a horror classic, perfectly packaged and stylish and one-of-a-kind in every way. Italian filmmaker Luca Guadagnino (I Am Love, A Bigger Splash, Call Me By Your Name) has created a brand new Suspiria, a layered, immensely complex, intense story of witches in Berlin seeking more to join their coven. And it’s also stylish and one-of-a-kind in every way. His film may be a remake, but it’s much different, and it’s an extraordinary work of art – not just cinema, but truly a piece of art. Something that should be hung on the walls in one of the world’s best museums and admired for decades to come. This film is going to seriously fuck up some viewers for life, with so much haunting nuance and intricacy and creepiness that it will be hard to ever forget what it shows. ›››
