The other week at the rooftop cinema (one of my local hotspots over the warmer months) my good friend Michael Kucyk presented Dario Argento's horror spectalia Suspiria. Although I have seen the cult classic many many times( I wrote my final cinema studies essay on this bad boy and scored a *whoop* 83/100), I still enjoy watching it, especially on the big screen! Amidst all the 'soft-gore' the film boasts heaps of pro's like: super art deco furniture and Baroque architecture, subtle sexy 70's ballet/dance outfits, hot psychedelic soundtrack by Italian group Goblin and omits the standard americano horror-narrative structure... PLUS PLUS- the film (along with Tenebre) was the inspiration for one of my brightest buddies fashion collections...Dress Up!
Here's a clip from the start, not for kids sorrrrry!
Look out for the Disney colours:
