What an interesting film. It’s a horror film about a dance troop out of Berlin that is run by a coven of witches. It’s based in the 1977 Italian film of the same name.
It’s good! I didn’t love it like so many others as I often found the story elements needlessly confusing and convoluted. It’s over 2.5 hour running time isn’t earned as the story is much simpler than the film lets on.
Overall, if you’re a fan of arthouse horror similar to Black Swan, check it out.
I enjoyed this one quite a bit, although as many have mentioned it gets pretty wild towards the end. I have no nostalgia for the original, but watched it a few months before this one and the two contrast really well. For one, Thom Yorke’s soundtrack is absolutely stunning and such an interesting choice considering Goblin’s music in the original.
The ending “scene” to that music is just 👏👏👏. I go to the theatre to be surprised, and Suspiria 2018 was a real treat
