Two weeks in a row of classic horror films being remade, or at least a franchise being looked at with fresh eyes? We must be in late October. Hot on the heels of Halloween managing to give the Michael Myers series a worthwhile return from the indie mind of David Gordon Green, we now have Dario Argento’s classic Suspiria getting the remake treatment. Opening this week, this very unusual choice by filmmaker Luca Guadagnino, coming as the follow up to his Academy Award winning Call Me By Your Name, will likely confound you. Some open minded viewers may find its obtuseness infatuating. Me? I found it underwhelming and often pretentious. Folks, this is one of the year’s bigger disappointments. A remake of Argento’s classic, this flick follows the same broad strokes, but does diverge in a number of places. We’ll just focus on the plot of this new one here.
