Feb 02, 2021Manic and gorgeous. Unforgettably splashy production design combined with a gleefully refreshing lack of exposition that would've otherwise weighed down the mystery. Argento drowns 'Suspiria' in dread and atmosphere and I came out on the other side with a grin about as manic as Suzy's. My kind of horror.Marisol M Super Reviewer

Nov 01, 2018The movie is ludicrous, but that hardly matters. Its oozing as much style as blood and that finale is a gorgeous nightmare.Alec B Super Reviewer

Apr 11, 2015Argento surpasses plenty of previous efforts of other directors by actually succeeding in bringing our nightmares to the big screen. Suspiria is a classic that clambers through our consciousness and hollows us out with images we didn't know were frightening until we saw them. The candy-coloured dreamscape of Argento's subconscious works amazingly on screen and helps craft a horror film like no other. An exfremely enjoyable piece of art.Harry W Super Reviewer

Mar 29, 2014Dario Argento's most popular film is a must-see for seasoned horror fans. The violence is extreme, it's astoundingly creepy, beautifully filmed, and Goblins' score is one of the best film scores of all time. The only setback is the low production value and clearly dubbed audio, but don't let that stop you from experiencing this iconic work of the horror genre.Edward B Super Reviewer
