Suspiria
2018 · TMDB 6.9
Directed by Luca Guadagnino
A darkness swirls at the center of a world-renowned dance company, one that will engulf the artistic director, an ambitious young dancer, and a grieving psychotherapist. Some will succumb to the nightmare. Others will finally wake up.
Why it matters
Luca Guadagnino's radical reimagining of Dario Argento's 1977 horror, set in Cold War Berlin, with Dakota Johnson and Tilda Swinton. It abandons the original's lurid colour for a muted, political dread.

Dancing Against the Current: Eight Films of Rebellion in Motion
Position 7 of 8
Luca Guadagnino's remake of the Argento classic places a young American dancer at a Berlin academy that is a front for a coven. Dance here is not liberation but ritual, a channel for something ancient and terrible.
