I thought this was alright but it really could have been 40 minutes shorter.

Count me among those not understanding what the post credit scene was supposed to be telling us.

Tilda Swinton was great as Blanc. I also thought Mia Goth was really good. I enjoyed the increased emphasis on dance.

Edit: I should add that I think Suspiria ‘77 is a perfect masterpiece and the biggest flaw of Suspiria ‘18 is that no one jumps into a room filled with barbed wire

Just a question for people who've seen the remake: is there any vomit in it? I've got a bit of a phobia about it but I'll be goddamned if I wait to see a freakin' Suspiria remake so it'd be cool to know going in.

Yes. At least stuff coming out of the mouth, vomit or bile.

Here are all of the echoes of the original Suspiria that I noticed on first watch

The obvious:

- Character/place names/general concept
- Jessica Harper as Anke
- Three mothers (I forget, does the original actually name mother tenebrarum and mother lachrymarum, or does that not come up until Inferno?)


Less obvious:

- Counting steps
- Room full of artifacts/trinkets
- Secret hallways/caverns throughout the studio
- “The Iris room”


Anything I missed? I’m sure there is.

Good ones, I didn’t even think about Sara getting caught in the floor hole being so similar to the barbed wire scene of the original

I could watch another hour of Tilda Swinton as Madame Blanc. She was awesome in that role and I truly bought the love between her and Suzy.

There’s also an extended sequence I would describe as supremely bloody.

Spoiler for those that have seen it: it’s the sabbath obviously, starting with Markos blowing Blanc’s neck the gently caress out and then the 5 or so minutes of exploding heads while a cool Radiohead song plays
