London Film Festival preview extract for Suspiria:
Four decades ago, Italian
genre master Dario Argento brazenly subverted expectations by abandoning
the giallo tradition upon which he had built his reputation, launching
headlong into a fantastical tale of the supernatural. The resulting film
remains not just one of the director’s most celebrated works, but a
defining classic of horror cinema. American ballerina Suzy Bannion
arrives in Germany to study at the prestigious Tanz Dance Academy. But
as a series of murders and a variety of other inexplicable events begin
to pile up, Suzy realises her new school houses a terrifying secret.
Dripping in dark imagination, Suspiria ranks as one of Argento’s most
visionary works – its garish colour palette and bravura set pieces
adding to a frenzied sense of dread.
