Luca Guadagnino. Image courtesy of Mubi.Born in Palermo, Sicily, to Italian/Algerian parents, Luca Guadagnino reckons if he hadn’t become a critically acclaimed, award-winning director/producer/screenwriter, his career would probably have revolved around fashion, interior design or historical research. In fact, all of the obsessions that have clearly added to the artistic textures and detailed truths perceived in his eclectic work to date that have made them so remarkable. From his debut crime thriller The Protagonists (1999), the first of five films to star Tilda Swinton, who many call his "muse," to the incisive paean Bertolucci on Bertolucci, Guadagnino has dug deep into the human emotional and identity landscapes while never forfeiting the lush style or delicate sensuality each of his subjects, both real and imaginary, bring to the aesthetic table.After working diligently in both the feature film and documentary arenas Guadagnino’s big-time breakout came with...

Suspiria is easily one of the most nightmarishly horrific films of the year. It was pretty jacked-up and it doesn’t look like director Luca Guadagnino is done playing in the dark and disturbing supernatural world of witches.
He’s already teased a sequel in the post-credits scene for the movie, but now he’s got an idea for a prequel film that will explore the head witch Markos. She is the evil demented witch that is looking for a human vessel to live through.
While talking to The Playlist, Guadagnino shared his prequel concept saying:
“I have this image in my mind. I have this image in my mind of Helena Markos in solitude in the year 1212 in Scotland or in Spain. Wondering through a village and trying to find a way on how she can manipulate the women of the village. I have this image. I know she was there,...

This morning brings us our first look at Amazon's upcoming remake of the cult horror classic, Suspira, and it's all about setting the creepy tone.
The Suspiria remake has already garnered some positive buzz based off it's showing at CinemaCon in April, but today gives the rest of the world a chance to take a gander at the supernatural flick and what to expect from the new version:
To be entirely honest...the trailer doesn't do a whole lot for me. I'm not sure why. It does a solid job of setting up an eerie tone, with it's quick cuts, and gradually rising buzz on the soundtrack, keeping the tension high. Still, something about it just isn't clicking for me. Perhaps it's because I have no real conneciton to the original 70s flick, but I think I'll need more to convince me. What do you guys think?
