Review of Suspiria

Suspiria (1977)
5/10
Overrated
20 February 2005
If you watch the trailer for this movie, you'll say "Wow! This looks incredible." The problem is all the spooky scenes are in the trailer, and in the movie all you get is a bunch of boredom in between those same scenes. In fact the skeleton in the trailer doesn't even appear in the film, so in a sense the trailer lied. The first kill in Suspiria is the high point of the whole movie. After that there's a lull in action and terror. So much for being a "classic." I'm not too thrilled about seeing another Argento film after seeing his "masterpiece."

The movie also overdoes it with the colored lights. However in some cases the colors are an interesting feature of the movie. Still, it sucked.
