Suspiria

After the acclaimed coming-of-age story CALL ME BY YOUR NAME, Guadagnino now delivers an extreme programme of contrasts. SUSPIRIA is his remake of the horror thriller of the same name by gore master Dario Argento from 1977. Once again, the young heroine ends up in a dance school, this time in the grey-shrouded Berlin Wall of the 1970s, whose teachers belong to a mysterious ring of witches. In two and a half hours, Guadagnino charges his version with meaning through references to the Holocaust and the German Autumn, moving somewhere at the interface between art and horror in a garish, supernatural and predominantly smouldering horror. - Viennale
