Fun Fact: The original was inspired by Argento's love for the witch in Disney's Snow White. The use of sets and Technicolor were meant to mimic the look of the early Disney cartoons.
I love the remake so much. Don't get me wrong... I also love the original,.but the dancing and music spoke to me in the remake. 5/5 for me. It's exactly how a remake should be done.
@@fizikz9647 Saying the new suspiria was just an attempt to get cash from the name is probably the biggest stretch I've ever heard. From the start the project showed the very least commercial accessibility. Just because you didn't like it doesn't negate the fact that it was clearly a well made passion project. It wasn't made for people who wanted a by the numbers slasher (wich Is probably what would've turned out from a remake that actually wanted to cash in on the franchise) and opted instead for a arthouse film about feminism and queer identity
@@fizikz9647 You may not have liked it, fine, but it was in no way a cash in on the name. Suspiria 2018 is a wonderfully intelligent, incredibly nuanced piece of art with layer upon layer of subtext for the mind to luxuriate within. Whilst it does possess a thematic seam on queerness, as stated by the poster above, for me its draw is how it explores inherent psychological states, and how they are moulded by the world, which then informs our ideologies, and how our ideologies often become fanaticism. Every scene is essential, and I disagree about it being drawn out and boring. For me Suspiria '18 is a hugely immersive experience, and I couldn't get it out of my head for weeks after watching it.
Whilst I love the original '77 version, the 2018 reimagining is my favourite film. Suspiria '18 is just such a wonderfully intelligent, incredibly nuanced piece of art, with layer upon layer of meaning and subtext woven into it. It's also unique - and yes I'm aware of the irony of making that statement about a remake - but really, there's nothing out there quite like it. The world it creates so fully immersive that I lose myself in it, and feel out of place when the film ends.
I love both versions. And I recommend watching them both more than once. There's a lot going on in both, but only through rewatching them will get more out of it. It took me rewatching the original Suspiria to get it. And two quick things about Italian filmmaking in the 70's and 80's: 1. They prefer emotions over logic (especially Argento and Fulci and outside of horror Fellini) 2. Every Italian movie at the time was dubbed, even if it had subtitles. It was still dubbed because they redid the sound on EVERTHING! Lol What Jessica Harper said is just how Italians made movies back then. Fellini was the same way. You'd shoot a scene while people worked around you and shouted about stuff lol Oh and you're make up looked cool. Ok I'm done and tired. Hope this made sense.
Possibly already covered in another comment, but most Italian movies were actually filmed without sound and were dubbed over. That were just their industry standard at the time. And they'd hire actors from all around the world, who would just speak their native language during filming, even if their scene partners weren't speaking the same language. It definitely adds to the dreamlike qualities of Italian horror imo
Hey Kylie! Thanks for these videos, it really improves my knowledge on horror and increases more films to my watch list! Very much appreciated. So interesting!
wait, maybe I'm misunderstanding what you were saying re: the head witch's appearance and the lack of a "vitality potion" but that was the whole purpose of them setting up the dance school--to find a young woman whose body would serve as the new vessel for the deteriorating Markos (well, that and to find other girls to sacrifice for the ritual). if I misunderstood what you were saying there, my apologies. as for the demonic entity--that's her shadow self. it's not "doing her dirty work," it's an aspect of who she is that materializes after her mother dies (when her mother is on her deathbed, note the shadow of a hand that "snatches" her dying breath away--giving birth to Mother Suspiriorum aka the Mother of Sighs). as for the gender politics, I don't think the movie is anything like Men (I'll admit to being low-key triggered by this comparison lmao). I interpret the movie to be about the corruption of power, irrespective of gender. the women of the Markos sect are deeply cruel and corrupt (of course, their society exists within but apart from the larger society of West Berlin); the lone male character does not abuse his power but instead tries to help his patients. Susie/Mother Suspiriorum is the most powerful person in the movie but uses her power in a just (if extremely violent) and compassionate way. if anything, I think the film is critiquing *systems* of power, etc etc
The original Suspiria is a better in my eyes it has better color scheme, direction, costume design. Love the portrayal of the ballet school teachers & it’s pretty much seeing a witch cult. Udo kier Frank Mandel also gave a pretty solid performance. He explains the meaning behind the three mothers including the main one Helena Marcos who’s ghost who tries to make Suzy & the students life a nightmare. One of the wildest scene is where one of the ballet students Pat begans to flee from the school right as soon as it took place bam she captured. I did see inferno later on down the road it was pretty thrilling unique & suspenseful. You can definitely see why Dario Argento has a tagline the master of the thrill.
@@darkwitch8648 great guess, but not quite. it is actually a reference to the Thomas de Quincey short story entitled 'Levana and Our Ladies of Sorrow,' from the anthology 'Suspiria de Profondis'. The three Mothers are a proposed triumvirate of Sorrows - much like there are three Fates and three Graces, there are three Sorrows - who are companions to Levana, a Roman goddess associated with childbirth. really good short story though, i recommend it, its a quick read with great imagery.
I really love both movies for so many different reasons. A trippy, vibrant giallo with great kills and a brisk pace vs a slowburn devoid of color with deeper themes and genuinely awesome dance performances. OG suspiria "scared" me more while the remake has more sporadic but truly haunting imagery. They are connected in the loosest of ways and have really different strengths.
This is a rare case where the original and remake are both good films. I've never understood remaking a classic, still don't but this is the world we live in now. I mean Jason Blum and blumhouse is producing an Exorcist remake.
I just finished watching the original for the first time and while I got a little lost at first, I overall really liked it and I can see why many adore it. I hate to join the broken record but good gosh the colors and set design were immaculate, I got lost in the beauty as well lol. I haven't seen the remake yet and I'm debating when I'll watch it since from clips I've seen, I can't say I'm particularly intrigued with it in part because they toned down the gothic set for something more drab and colorless. I'm sure that mood is fine but I know that when going into the remake, it'll be tough because I love gothic set design and the OG had totally nailed it.
i love both movies - they are very unique experiences. i agree that the remake is a bit bloated & confusing at times but i feel like the good outweighs the bad (the body horror when susie ”marionettes” the other girl is crazy good & i love a lot of things abt how susie develops as well as her relationship to madame blanc). i think its a shame that it tanked so bad bc i would’ve liked to see what the sequels would bring to the table lore-wise. i do get why the director of the original wasnt a huge fan of the remake though, it feels like the only thing connecting the two movies is the name & the basic outline of the plot.
Same. For some people this film seems to almost literally haunt them, in that it sets up home in our heads and inhabits our thoughts and moods for weeks after seeing it.
Suspiria Evil Dead Friday The 13th I Spit On Your Grave The Hills Have Eyes The Last House On The Left All originals & remakes I love!! Great vid, subbed to the channel 👍
Goshhh the work behind this videos shows it all ( and I’m not just talking about the makeup ) I have to say both films are super unique on their own ways , I love the lighting in the og but the remake for me it’s better for the dance sequences and because I can see more of the pain behind the characters. OMG imagine if Anna Taylor was in this film 😭
What I really love about the remake is the setting I was pretty biased though because I just was really into watching documentaries about that era at the time so it really struck a chord with me.
The 1977 Suspiria is my second favorite horror movie. I was very excited to see the remake. I think part of the reason it did so poorly was because of how few theaters it was in. I had to drive almost two hours to see it and I live in Atlanta. By the way, I just found your channel yesterday and I really love your videos. Please keep up the great work.
Not even a debate - The Original Suspiria completely obliterates the remake. *Just do a opening 3 minute comparison of both movies side by side to back this up*
She's not just a witch She's Mother Susperiorum, the goddess that the witches draw power from. The three Mothers are Darkness, Tears and Sighs. I figured the Monster was Mother Darkness Am I wrong
I had to watch Suspiria 2018 a few times to really appreciate it, but after doing so I think it is much richer in themes than the first. You've had pretty deep analysis of other films that aren't half as rich, so I don't think you're unable to see deeper into the remake, maybe you just missed it on your first few viewings.
I agree. I’m failing to see how a movie that fleshes out concepts is unnecessary and unimportant. It’s what most of us are craving when they remake something, especially if they’re going to touch an audience classic. I’ve been looking for in depth reviews on RUclips,and so far, I’ve only found one. Everyone else just skims over it and regurgitates the same talking points. She said it was a biased review and sadly,she wasn’t wrong. 😑
Both are in my top 10 favorite movies oat but it's kinda hard to compare considering both are going for completely different things. OG is a vivid moving painting fairytale focusing on the granduer vs the technical stuff while the remake is a narrative piece. But if we are to compare from a traditional film route than the remake is the better film by miles. It had the better acting, writing, cinematography, choreography, plot, pacing and dare I even say soundtrack.
Suspiria 2018 is a movie with a strong sub plot, where history and location play as protagonists themselves. The original Suspiria cut off completely the political context of the late 70s in Germany, Suspiria 2018 embraces it. Under this light the girl in therapy sup plot is essential, not just an unnecessary addition. It anchors the nightmare to reality, instead of a stylish dream, like the original. That was Guadagnino's intentional choice. He didn't mean to make a remake, as Tilda stated. Guadagnino went for the opposite of Argento, as he knew he cannot touch the vision of the original, he did the same with colours, soundtrack, etc. All the opposite.
It's worth mentioning that Guadagnino's film appropriated Ana Mendieta's works without the consent of her heirs, so some scenes were ultimately deleted, but you can still feel the atmosphere of Medita's feminist art, especially in the dance scenes. However, in the case of Argento, it's ignored that the set design was inspired by the work of Emma Kunz.
Imo the original is way more style over substance. Dont get me wrong, some beats are good. But the movie as a whole has too many horror tropes and weak resolution for me to enjoy it in the current decade. On the other hand the remake (thats is more of a remodeling) has both. Manages to get the best parts of the original (soundtrack + photography) and build a much more complete and compelling story than the older one. Soooo... as pretty as the 77' one is i choose the 2018 without a doubt. PS: Your makeup/looks are always on point!
The remake is definitely outmatched by the original in my opinion but it has some merit I’ll admit. Argento wisely elevated the film with an astonishing score by Goblin and the jaw dropping cinematography and direction. It more than makes up for the script and characters which are on the weaker side. The remake has its positives, but it’s rather bloated and strangely meaningless compared to how simple the narrative is in the original film. It’s a different take if nothing else and should be applauded for being so different. I enjoyed the video and it’s always interesting to hear your perspective. Great job on the deep dive.
In order to really understand you’d have to understand the lore of the three mothers on why the demonic entity appeared. It wasn’t just a demon, it was the second mother, Tenebrarum. Tenebrarum was death incarnate which was established on the original suspirias sequel, Inferno. Susie proved her crown by summoning not just anything but her own sister. Another mother.
The dream sequences ADD a hell lotta lot to the film and it's actually so visually stunning and horrifying And if you pay close attention, it tells you a lot of what the movie doesn't show otherwise
My favorite is definitely the original '77 version. It is so much more fun, tense and exhilarating in comparison to the remake. A Disney inspired fairy tale that is set in a nightmare cursed by witches and bathed in technicolor is such an exciting concept on its face that I allow my sense of imagination guide me through some of the less than stellar special effects available in the 70's. I can appreciate the remake for what it seems like it is wishing to do. Madam Blanc is much more of a compelling character in the remake, but once she was killed I felt like I couldn't care for the stakes of the movie any longer. It seems to wish to say something about the geopolitics of Germany in 1977 and the struggle between the radical fringes in a space where two global powers divide. Honestly though, the struggle for dominance or power seemed to connect with me much better in Possession (1981), so it feels like a better movie did it in a way that is more exciting and tense. In fact, the Suspiria remake would not have really needed to be a remake apart from seeing this political context of the period overlapped with the power struggle happening within the school
I just watched the 2018 movie - I didn't even know it was a remake, so I haven't seen the 1977 one - and I'm glad that it wasn't only me who was confused by the ending. I was intrigued by the film but it needed a clearer resolution in my opinion. Was Suzie really a witch all along? When watching the movie I thought the dark creature in the end was Mother Suspiriorum and it began taking control of Suzie during the scene when she improvised the rebirth dance. Also, wasn't Madame Blanc alive in the end? When the other witch moved her head Blanc's eyes moved and she seemed to look at the other witch. Also also, I didn't notice that Tilda Swinton played Markos and the doktor. But I did wonder why the doctor's voice sounded so feminine (at least in the German dub) but that explains it I guess.
It is interesting after rewatching the remake several, my understanding of it became clearer. I believe Suzy is actually the reincarnation of mother suspiriarum and she was always supposed to go there, that explains everything, another word for it could be "vessel", she is supposed to be mother's suspiriarum's physical body The moment mother suspirarum could fully take control of Suzy's body was when she denied all other mothers. And I believe the only witch that voted for mother Markos was left alive to become the new "witness" That's why she is spared, and that's also why the psychiatrist is relieved of his witness role
I like both versions, but I think a lot of people kind of miss the remake's Berlin Wall "subplot", and I am saying it in quotations, because it's kind of mirroring the power dynamic in the dance academy, so the word "subplot" is used loosely. To me, the film is not so much about women being the ultimate outcasts, as much as it is about political power struggles and how they aren't really in service of those, who they're supposed to service. The coven's power struggles results in their students dying or being crushed mentally, meanwhile that's what the German government was doing to its people. A system that's supposed to serve the public, but it serves only the ones in power. So Susie, as the reincarnation of Mater Suspiriorum, clears the coven of its corrupted elements and restores it.
I respect you for hating Men, but I don’t agree with your analysis of the theme. I don’t think the witches are bad or good. They are just characters in a power struggle, much like the things going on in the background in the movie.
Yup, you're quite right The remake has so much depth and layering... visually stunning and so well crafted to the smallest of details Suzy's dreams were horrible, yet beautiful, and they actually added so much to Suzy's and Blanc's characters, and they added so much to the overall witcraft aspect
Daria Nicolodi (RIP) followed me on Twitter for a while until I told her Bob Dylan was boring... True story. Oh yer, she told me original Suspiria script was all her, and.... was annoyed Dario's name was above hers on the credits or something, can't remember, they were long drawn out late night chats like 10 years ago.
@@HauntedHippie "When do you think Dario went to an all girls boarding school in Switzerland?" - Daria Nicolodi (to me). There's more but can't remember it. I suppose I need to tread carefully here as these were personal conversations, we chatted mostly about music, something about Dawn of the Dead, it'll come back to me.
@@SPBASS well, it'n not the first time i read about Daria's huge role in writing parts of lots of Dario's scripts. Plus she was her Musa and after her death Argento's movies quality decreas (euphemistically speaking). I also think that here in Italy is even well known that suspiria's script in particular was mainly by her. So don't worry, you are not delivering "top secret" stuff, just giving correct informations and context to the movie :) P.s. sorry if i make some mistakes here and there, but english it's not my native langue
10:44 / 25:15 Ok those statements gagged me a little lol. They are so different, one of the themes of the remake is trying to tackle generation trauma because of the WWII open wounds that carried to the Cold War, so thats the history part, no matter if ppl liked the execution or not. Like Patricia is trying to help the movement against nazis (evils) that still plague Germany, she has more going on. Now the first one is just a mostly conventional magical mystery plot that uses the 2 psychiatrists only to give a very rushed explanation that well witches are, indeed, evil and possibly real. This Patricia also shows up and quickly disappears having way less development. So, i don't get your point. Very different plots and the 2018 did enhance a conventional use of witches as evil to a more nuanced approach tied to real life events...
I like aspects of the re-make but I think it feels pretentious and just isn’t as memorable as the original film. It’s admirable that they tried something deeper but I definitely prefer the creepy surreal feeling and insanity of the original, it has more of a pure cinema feel. I liked the description of it being like a nightmare, I think that’s really fitting, it’s like a crazy fairytale nightmare that just pops out at you. Nice video
Like you, I'm with the original. It's a classic in the genre. But honestly, I prefer Argento's Inferno, which is part two of the three mother's trilogy that starts with Suspiria. I suspect you like the remake a lot more than I did. Although I like that they took a different approach with the remake, to me it's a parade of dropped story lines, points of emphasis not emphasized enough, and a grand guignol ending that is just-well, it's a mess. By the time the movie got to the first dream sequence, I started asking myself WTF was Guadagnino trying to do, and I still can't answer that question. You're right, though; with a lot of horror folks, the remake seems to attract a lot of the art-horror types searching for meaning. I hate the remake, but to each their own. Great video!
@@HauntedHippie For whatever reason, the remake has a rather devout following on the r/horror reddit sub, in which case any negative comments get you downvoted to oblivion. I've done it plenty nontheless :)
Love your vids and probably someone has already said this but it’s pronounced jiallo not ghiallo haha with a soft j, same sound you make when you say jealous! #italianrepreseeeeent \o/ take care
Well...I completely misunderstood the ending of the remake. I thought Suze was to be the vessel for fat bloated sunglasses witch ,but the third witch skinless fingernails had already called dibs on Suzi ,and Blanc was the witch already in control but about to be given the boot by the bloated sunglasses hag. This movie confusing
No lol, you got it right 👍🏽 they really weren’t trying to be confusing. The comparison between power in the school and power in Germany was very clearly stated. Suzie was inhabited by one of the 3 main witches, and she chose to step up and end the corruption in the coven.
I'm just sick of remakes, it feels like there is no creativity in movies anymore, and remakes are just an attempt to make more money from an already established name.
I'm not a big fan of giallo films at all. They're mostly more style than substance. Other than the first death in the '77 film I can't remember a single other death in it. The acting is just horrible. I mean, I couldn't even remember the main character's name. The exposition dump with Dr. Frank Mandel (Udo Kier) takes away from a lot of the suspense. I hated the ending. Suzie walks out of the burning dance academy. Roll credits. The End. I mean, what?! The Argento version feels as much as a comedy as a horror. The remake combines style AND substance much better, imo. The witches feel more flushed out than in the original. Plus Tilda Swinton is just amazing! I prefer the remake much more than the original.
I say this as a fan of the original...but spot on! This is one of those films which you're almost not allowed to criticise, and to which allowances are granted not afforded to other films. I love Suspiria '77, I've bought it on multiple formats over the years...but I'm not unrealistic about it: much of it is outright comedic, and aspects of it are terribly executed. What it does well, it does very well...however that does not excuse its failings.
Exactly! Visually, the OG is very great, has a cool soundtrack, but everything else bored me :( I honestly expected way more after watching the MASTERPIECE Remake I swear to you, I watched the OG and I was getting bored and sleepy and I thought, maybe we'll finally get something interesting... maybe I'm nearing halfway of the movie... the shock I was in after noticing that I WAS AT THE ENDING I was so disappointed TT
In my opinion, giallo films are just sophisticated arty type Slasher films where the killer's identity is a mystery until the end of the film. If you judge them on that basis nothing in the slasher genre comes close other than Psycho which is the most sophisticated Slasher there is in a way.
Suspiria 1977 handled tension very well through long scenes that feel eternal but don't feel like they drag on unnecessarily, but it ultimately seems directionless and is the ending is the wettest of farts. Stephen King endings look good next to it
The original is a masterpiece, while the remake is a pretentious piece of crap with actually nothing to say and indeed as you say, the epilogue, as is the whole story of the old "man" is completely redundant and annoying. I just kept waiting for those scenes to end. And what the hell was Thom Yorke's music doing in this film, and this coming from a Radiohead fan, it was a total disconnect and mismatch with the movie. Actually what would have been a good use of time to fill 2,5 hours would have been spending time with Susy as she grew up among the Amish, because that seemed to be a far more interesting story. I liked the use of dance for spell casting, that was cool, and of course Tilda Swinton is always interesting to watch. That's it. The original of course has been analyzed to death, the colours, outrageous sets, lighting, unusual camera angles, the goblins (in of itself the reason this movie is far superiour). The deaths in the original are really original and wonderfully orchestrated, great jump scares like the murder in the square with the guide dog, fantastically handled also in camera work. Of course the acting as well as the dialogue was crap, let alone the dreadful dubbing, but somehow it fit, the cheesiness, it was somehow perfect.
I will always prefer the 2019 remake, sadly, the original bored me :/ but maybe I just need to re-watch and see if I change my mind I quite enjoyed Chloe's scenes and the whole Psychiatrist storyline A loved all the aspects of the film, and the way they approached everything to the last detail The dream sequences are there for a reason and they elevate the film to perfection. And as I finished this video it seems you don't get a lot of what the film is about, like Markos rotting away, the dream sequences, Chloe's scenes and the psychiatrist's storyline, and just the witches alone... they are not "evil", they're just in the middle of an internal power struggle while trying to survive the world they live in... And this is so perfectly depicted... Everything is, so it shocks me the way you dismissed a lot of it as "unnecessary" and almost "boring" lol
12:37 How's it satisfying to have Suzie kill a centuries old entity with one blow. I don't get it. Also was i supposed to cheer for character that had no depth in the 77' one? I REALLY don't get it.
The original is one of my all time favourites. I absolutely hated the remake. The second film in the series Inferno is also very good. But do not watch the third instalment mother of tears, absolute shit. His daughter Asia plays the lead and her acting sucks. And there wasn’t anything Argento about the film. But my favourite scene in the original, is where that girl is trying to get away from the unseen killer, goes to climb out the window and then bam! Razor wire 😂
@@JasenPotts the new one isn't some half baked attempt at being "woke" or whatever you people love to say about anything involving politics. If you actually took the time to pay attention to the film you'd know it's a tightly written film about femininity feminism and queer identity. Every frame is oozing with contextual subtext. Just because it is a well made film doesn't make it pretentious trash. Stanley Kubrick films have just about the same amount of obsessive attention to detail yet you don't see people calling the shinning or a clockwork orange pretentious. Also I find it ironic you praise the soundtrack when it's probably the most pretentious part of the film! The original, now that is worthless. Theirs nothing of substance to it its just pretty colors and loud music. It's praised for its style yet Dario Argento is known to have stolen that very style from multiple other directors at the time. So not only is the original a mess but it's only defining feature is literally a stolen gimmick 💀 just because YOU didn't personally enjoy it doesn't mean it's an objectively bad film.
The original is incredibly pretentious. And I say that as someone who loves the original. You may not like the remake, which is fine, but it's clearly a well crafted film with very much its own identity - in fact there's nothing like it out there. Again, you may think that's a good thing in terms of enjoyment, but to just write it off as worthless trash is disingenuous.
@@NessNayii The remake had good intentions but wasn't faithful to the source material, it's so far off it's hardly recognizable as a remake, with all due respect, my criticism stands.

Suspiria '18 is just such a wonderfully intelligent, incredibly nuanced piece of art, with layer upon layer of meaning and subtext woven into it. It's also unique - and yes I'm aware of the irony of making that statement about a remake - but really, there's nothing out there quite like it. The world it creates so fully immersive that I lose myself in it, and feel out of place when the film ends.
Suspiria and Evil Dead (originals and remakes) are my favorite horror movies and I really enjoy hearing your perspective ❤️
In the first nightmare, when Susie is "climbing" the doorframe, that's also a Pina Bausch reference (which made me super happy).
I love both versions. And I recommend watching them both more than once. There's a lot going on in both, but only through rewatching them will get more out of it. It took me rewatching the original Suspiria to get it. And two quick things about Italian filmmaking in the 70's and 80's: 1. They prefer emotions over logic (especially Argento and Fulci and outside of horror Fellini) 2. Every Italian movie at the time was dubbed, even if it had subtitles. It was still dubbed because they redid the sound on EVERTHING! Lol What Jessica Harper said is just how Italians made movies back then. Fellini was the same way. You'd shoot a scene while people worked around you and shouted about stuff lol Oh and you're make up looked cool. Ok I'm done and tired. Hope this made sense.
Possibly already covered in another comment, but most Italian movies were actually filmed without sound and were dubbed over. That were just their industry standard at the time. And they'd hire actors from all around the world, who would just speak their native language during filming, even if their scene partners weren't speaking the same language. It definitely adds to the dreamlike qualities of Italian horror imo
Love love LOVE this video! It's so informative and well researched! Thank you for taking the time to make this!
Was hesitant about watching a 30 min video on this, but your analysis is spot on and I had to keep watching! Thank you for sharing. Great video.
Hey Kylie! Thanks for these videos, it really improves my knowledge on horror and increases more films to my watch list! Very much appreciated. So interesting!
wait, maybe I'm misunderstanding what you were saying re: the head witch's appearance and the lack of a "vitality potion" but that was the whole purpose of them setting up the dance school--to find a young woman whose body would serve as the new vessel for the deteriorating Markos (well, that and to find other girls to sacrifice for the ritual). if I misunderstood what you were saying there, my apologies. as for the demonic entity--that's her shadow self. it's not "doing her dirty work," it's an aspect of who she is that materializes after her mother dies (when her mother is on her deathbed, note the shadow of a hand that "snatches" her dying breath away--giving birth to Mother Suspiriorum aka the Mother of Sighs). as for the gender politics, I don't think the movie is anything like Men (I'll admit to being low-key triggered by this comparison lmao). I interpret the movie to be about the corruption of power, irrespective of gender. the women of the Markos sect are deeply cruel and corrupt (of course, their society exists within but apart from the larger society of West Berlin); the lone male character does not abuse his power but instead tries to help his patients. Susie/Mother Suspiriorum is the most powerful person in the movie but uses her power in a just (if extremely violent) and compassionate way. if anything, I think the film is critiquing *systems* of power, etc etc
I love this approach, seems fitting
💯 on point
The original Suspiria is a better in my eyes it has better color scheme, direction, costume design. Love the portrayal of the ballet school teachers & it’s pretty much seeing a witch cult. Udo kier Frank Mandel also gave a pretty solid performance. He explains the meaning behind the three mothers including the main one Helena Marcos who’s ghost who tries to make Suzy & the students life a nightmare. One of the wildest scene is where one of the ballet students Pat begans to flee from the school right as soon as it took place bam she captured. I did see inferno later on down the road it was pretty thrilling unique & suspenseful. You can definitely see why Dario Argento has a tagline the master of the thrill.
The 3 mothers is a reference to the Triple Goddess. The 3 in 1.
THOUGHT THE SAME THING❤
@@darkwitch8648 great guess, but not quite. it is actually a reference to the Thomas de Quincey short story entitled 'Levana and Our Ladies of Sorrow,' from the anthology 'Suspiria de Profondis'. The three Mothers are a proposed triumvirate of Sorrows - much like there are three Fates and three Graces, there are three Sorrows - who are companions to Levana, a Roman goddess associated with childbirth. really good short story though, i recommend it, its a quick read with great imagery.
I really love both movies for so many different reasons. A trippy, vibrant giallo with great kills and a brisk pace vs a slowburn devoid of color with deeper themes and genuinely awesome dance performances. OG suspiria "scared" me more while the remake has more sporadic but truly haunting imagery. They are connected in the loosest of ways and have really different strengths.
OG wins. It's one of those films that pulls you in right from the beginning with its score and colours. I do appreciate the remake as well.
This is a rare case where the original and remake are both good films. I've never understood remaking a classic, still don't but this is the world we live in now. I mean Jason Blum and blumhouse is producing an Exorcist remake.
These movies are different enough to where I understand it
I just finished watching the original for the first time and while I got a little lost at first, I overall really liked it and I can see why many adore it. I hate to join the broken record but good gosh the colors and set design were immaculate, I got lost in the beauty as well lol. I haven't seen the remake yet and I'm debating when I'll watch it since from clips I've seen, I can't say I'm particularly intrigued with it in part because they toned down the gothic set for something more drab and colorless. I'm sure that mood is fine but I know that when going into the remake, it'll be tough because I love gothic set design and the OG had totally nailed it.
i love both movies - they are very unique experiences. i agree that the remake is a bit bloated & confusing at times but i feel like the good outweighs the bad (the body horror when susie ”marionettes” the other girl is crazy good & i love a lot of things abt how susie develops as well as her relationship to madame blanc). i think its a shame that it tanked so bad bc i would’ve liked to see what the sequels would bring to the table lore-wise. i do get why the director of the original wasnt a huge fan of the remake though, it feels like the only thing connecting the two movies is the name & the basic outline of the plot.
The remake is a movie I can never get out of my head, like haunting in a good way. 😂
Same. For some people this film seems to almost literally haunt them, in that it sets up home in our heads and inhabits our thoughts and moods for weeks after seeing it.

Great vid, subbed to the channel 👍
The Last House on the Left is just so amazing 😊
The OG is actually one of my favorite horror movies but I like that the remake did something very different I love them both
Goshhh the work behind this videos shows it all ( and I’m not just talking about the makeup ) I have to say both films are super unique on their own ways , I love the lighting in the og but the remake for me it’s better for the dance sequences and because I can see more of the pain behind the characters. OMG imagine if Anna Taylor was in this film 😭
Oh she would’ve ATE
@@HauntedHippie ruclips.net/video/uQOtLBCQCpI/видео.html 😭
What I really love about the remake is the setting I was pretty biased though because I just was really into watching documentaries about that era at the time so it really struck a chord with me.
I Love Both Films Equally For Different Individual Reasons💯 That Being Said, The Original Is Very Nostalgic For Me. Amazing Job On This Makeup Too💥🔥💥
I'm a fan of both movies!
Suspiria will be 45 years old this year!
The 1977 Suspiria is my second favorite horror movie. I was very excited to see the remake. I think part of the reason it did so poorly was because of how few theaters it was in. I had to drive almost two hours to see it and I live in Atlanta.
By the way, I just found your channel yesterday and I really love your videos. Please keep up the great work.
Oh wow! Yea that’s probably why. Glad to have ya!
Any role that Mia goth plays in is top tier for sure
Not even a debate - The Original Suspiria completely obliterates the remake. *Just do a opening 3 minute comparison of both movies side by side to back this up*
She's not just a witch
She's Mother Susperiorum, the goddess that the witches draw power from. The three Mothers are Darkness, Tears and Sighs. I figured the Monster was Mother Darkness
Am I wrong
You are correct.
I had to watch Suspiria 2018 a few times to really appreciate it, but after doing so I think it is much richer in themes than the first. You've had pretty deep analysis of other films that aren't half as rich, so I don't think you're unable to see deeper into the remake, maybe you just missed it on your first few viewings.
I agree. I’m failing to see how a movie that fleshes out concepts is unnecessary and unimportant. It’s what most of us are craving when they remake something, especially if they’re going to touch an audience classic. I’ve been looking for in depth reviews on RUclips,and so far, I’ve only found one. Everyone else just skims over it and regurgitates the same talking points. She said it was a biased review and sadly,she wasn’t wrong. 😑
Both are in my top 10 favorite movies oat but it's kinda hard to compare considering both are going for completely different things. OG is a vivid moving painting fairytale focusing on the granduer vs the technical stuff while the remake is a narrative piece. But if we are to compare from a traditional film route than the remake is the better film by miles. It had the better acting, writing, cinematography, choreography, plot, pacing and dare I even say soundtrack.
I did enjoy this video. I like both films, though far prefer the remake (though the the Goblin soundtrack for the first is amazing).
Nice vid! I liked the remake but, as Dario Argento said, That movie wasn't supposed to be called "Suspiria", because it's something else
Suspiria 2018 is a movie with a strong sub plot, where history and location play as protagonists themselves. The original Suspiria cut off completely the political context of the late 70s in Germany, Suspiria 2018 embraces it. Under this light the girl in therapy sup plot is essential, not just an unnecessary addition. It anchors the nightmare to reality, instead of a stylish dream, like the original. That was Guadagnino's intentional choice. He didn't mean to make a remake, as Tilda stated. Guadagnino went for the opposite of Argento, as he knew he cannot touch the vision of the original, he did the same with colours, soundtrack, etc. All the opposite.
I haven't seen Suspiria is it good?
It's worth mentioning that Guadagnino's film appropriated Ana Mendieta's works without the consent of her heirs, so some scenes were ultimately deleted, but you can still feel the atmosphere of Medita's feminist art, especially in the dance scenes. However, in the case of Argento, it's ignored that the set design was inspired by the work of Emma Kunz.
Imo the original is way more style over substance. Dont get me wrong, some beats are good. But the movie as a whole has too many horror tropes and weak resolution for me to enjoy it in the current decade. On the other hand the remake (thats is more of a remodeling) has both. Manages to get the best parts of the original (soundtrack + photography) and build a much more complete and compelling story than the older one. Soooo... as pretty as the 77' one is i choose the 2018 without a doubt.
PS: Your makeup/looks are always on point!
The remake is definitely outmatched by the original in my opinion but it has some merit I’ll admit. Argento wisely elevated the film with an astonishing score by Goblin and the jaw dropping cinematography and direction. It more than makes up for the script and characters which are on the weaker side. The remake has its positives, but it’s rather bloated and strangely meaningless compared to how simple the narrative is in the original film. It’s a different take if nothing else and should be applauded for being so different. I enjoyed the video and it’s always interesting to hear your perspective. Great job on the deep dive.
Apples and Oranges both great! ❤
Suspiria 2018 is on my to watch list. I will watch it twice then give you my take on the 2.
I only watched the remake so this was very interesting to listen to. Also - wow, you're beautiful!
I'll never unsee the witch looking like the girl from that anti-weed commercial now 😭
Ahahahha my bad
In order to really understand you’d have to understand the lore of the three mothers on why the demonic entity appeared. It wasn’t just a demon, it was the second mother, Tenebrarum. Tenebrarum was death incarnate which was established on the original suspirias sequel, Inferno. Susie proved her crown by summoning not just anything but her own sister. Another mother.
👏🏽 exactly. It wasn’t just a “death demon” from nowhere. EVERYTHING is connected 🫰🏽
Nahh the dream sequences are so fantastic and creepy
The dream sequences ADD a hell lotta lot to the film and it's actually so visually stunning and horrifying
And if you pay close attention, it tells you a lot of what the movie doesn't show otherwise
@@NoxNovak Definitely.
My favorite is definitely the original '77 version. It is so much more fun, tense and exhilarating in comparison to the remake. A Disney inspired fairy tale that is set in a nightmare cursed by witches and bathed in technicolor is such an exciting concept on its face that I allow my sense of imagination guide me through some of the less than stellar special effects available in the 70's.
I can appreciate the remake for what it seems like it is wishing to do. Madam Blanc is much more of a compelling character in the remake, but once she was killed I felt like I couldn't care for the stakes of the movie any longer. It seems to wish to say something about the geopolitics of Germany in 1977 and the struggle between the radical fringes in a space where two global powers divide. Honestly though, the struggle for dominance or power seemed to connect with me much better in Possession (1981), so it feels like a better movie did it in a way that is more exciting and tense. In fact, the Suspiria remake would not have really needed to be a remake apart from seeing this political context of the period overlapped with the power struggle happening within the school
The original suspiria is the best. That is all.
I just watched the 2018 movie - I didn't even know it was a remake, so I haven't seen the 1977 one - and I'm glad that it wasn't only me who was confused by the ending. I was intrigued by the film but it needed a clearer resolution in my opinion. Was Suzie really a witch all along? When watching the movie I thought the dark creature in the end was Mother Suspiriorum and it began taking control of Suzie during the scene when she improvised the rebirth dance.
Also, wasn't Madame Blanc alive in the end? When the other witch moved her head Blanc's eyes moved and she seemed to look at the other witch. Also also, I didn't notice that Tilda Swinton played Markos and the doktor. But I did wonder why the doctor's voice sounded so feminine (at least in the German dub) but that explains it I guess.
It is interesting after rewatching the remake several, my understanding of it became clearer.
I believe Suzy is actually the reincarnation of mother suspiriarum and she was always supposed to go there, that explains everything, another word for it could be "vessel", she is supposed to be mother's suspiriarum's physical body
The moment mother suspirarum could fully take control of Suzy's body was when she denied all other mothers.
And I believe the only witch that voted for mother Markos was left alive to become the new "witness"
That's why she is spared, and that's also why the psychiatrist is relieved of his witness role
I like both versions, but I think a lot of people kind of miss the remake's Berlin Wall "subplot", and I am saying it in quotations, because it's kind of mirroring the power dynamic in the dance academy, so the word "subplot" is used loosely. To me, the film is not so much about women being the ultimate outcasts, as much as it is about political power struggles and how they aren't really in service of those, who they're supposed to service. The coven's power struggles results in their students dying or being crushed mentally, meanwhile that's what the German government was doing to its people. A system that's supposed to serve the public, but it serves only the ones in power. So Susie, as the reincarnation of Mater Suspiriorum, clears the coven of its corrupted elements and restores it.
🤍❤️🖤
I respect you for hating Men, but I don’t agree with your analysis of the theme. I don’t think the witches are bad or good. They are just characters in a power struggle, much like the things going on in the background in the movie.
Yup, you're quite right
The remake has so much depth and layering... visually stunning and so well crafted to the smallest of details
Suzy's dreams were horrible, yet beautiful, and they actually added so much to Suzy's and Blanc's characters, and they added so much to the overall witcraft aspect
do you think you’ll make a comparison for orphan & orphan first kill later down the road?
Probably not since first kill is a prequel
Daria Nicolodi (RIP) followed me on Twitter for a while until I told her Bob Dylan was boring... True story. Oh yer, she told me original Suspiria script was all her, and.... was annoyed Dario's name was above hers on the credits or something, can't remember, they were long drawn out late night chats like 10 years ago.
Oh wow! You got the inside scoop
@@HauntedHippie "When do you think Dario went to an all girls boarding school in Switzerland?" - Daria Nicolodi (to me). There's more but can't remember it. I suppose I need to tread carefully here as these were personal conversations, we chatted mostly about music, something about Dawn of the Dead, it'll come back to me.
I think you kinda deserved it for that Dylan remark tho 😂😅
@@SPBASS well, it'n not the first time i read about Daria's huge role in writing parts of lots of Dario's scripts. Plus she was her Musa and after her death Argento's movies quality decreas (euphemistically speaking). I also think that here in Italy is even well known that suspiria's script in particular was mainly by her. So don't worry, you are not delivering "top secret" stuff, just giving correct informations and context to the movie :)
P.s. sorry if i make some mistakes here and there, but english it's not my native langue
2018 would have been perfect if the dance academy was saturated in color in contrast to susies grey past and berlins divide
10:44 / 25:15 Ok those statements gagged me a little lol. They are so different, one of the themes of the remake is trying to tackle generation trauma because of the WWII open wounds that carried to the Cold War, so thats the history part, no matter if ppl liked the execution or not. Like Patricia is trying to help the movement against nazis (evils) that still plague Germany, she has more going on.
Now the first one is just a mostly conventional magical mystery plot that uses the 2 psychiatrists only to give a very rushed explanation that well witches are, indeed, evil and possibly real. This Patricia also shows up and quickly disappears having way less development. So, i don't get your point. Very different plots and the 2018 did enhance a conventional use of witches as evil to a more nuanced approach tied to real life events...
I like aspects of the re-make but I think it feels pretentious and just isn’t as memorable as the original film. It’s admirable that they tried something deeper but I definitely prefer the creepy surreal feeling and insanity of the original, it has more of a pure cinema feel. I liked the description of it being like a nightmare, I think that’s really fitting, it’s like a crazy fairytale nightmare that just pops out at you.
Nice video
Can you review The Craft (1996)?????
Like you, I'm with the original. It's a classic in the genre. But honestly, I prefer Argento's Inferno, which is part two of the three mother's trilogy that starts with Suspiria.
I suspect you like the remake a lot more than I did. Although I like that they took a different approach with the remake, to me it's a parade of dropped story lines, points of emphasis not emphasized enough, and a grand guignol ending that is just-well, it's a mess. By the time the movie got to the first dream sequence, I started asking myself WTF was Guadagnino trying to do, and I still can't answer that question. You're right, though; with a lot of horror folks, the remake seems to attract a lot of the art-horror types searching for meaning. I hate the remake, but to each their own.
Great video!
I honestly thought I’d be a little crucified for not liking the remake but you guys have validated my feelings lol
@@HauntedHippie For whatever reason, the remake has a rather devout following on the r/horror reddit sub, in which case any negative comments get you downvoted to oblivion. I've done it plenty nontheless :)
@@RPKraul reddit does not sound like a fun plae to be haha
What storylines were dropped? I thought it was extremely tight and well written
@@JesusGomez-ob2qt tight.. at 2.5 hours lmfao
Both are great, but the soundtrack of the original cannot be bested, in my opinion. Thom Yorke did a great job, but Goblin’s OST slaps too hard.
Love your vids and probably someone has already said this but it’s pronounced jiallo not ghiallo haha with a soft j, same sound you make when you say jealous! #italianrepreseeeeent \o/ take care
I prefer original but remake is awesome
You should include Funny Games in this series
Well...I completely misunderstood the ending of the remake.
I thought Suze was to be the vessel for fat bloated sunglasses witch ,but the third witch skinless fingernails had already called dibs on Suzi ,and Blanc was the witch already in control but about to be given the boot by the bloated sunglasses hag.
This movie confusing
No lol, you got it right 👍🏽 they really weren’t trying to be confusing. The comparison between power in the school and power in Germany was very clearly stated. Suzie was inhabited by one of the 3 main witches, and she chose to step up and end the corruption in the coven.
Idk if you already learned this, but its pronounced Gee-allo, and its Dar-io not Dare-io. Italian is silly to non italians haha
Argento’s 1977 is the Masterpiece. The other one will always just be a remake..
I'm just sick of remakes, it feels like there is no creativity in movies anymore, and remakes are just an attempt to make more money from an already established name.
I'm not a big fan of giallo films at all.
They're mostly more style than substance.
Other than the first death in the '77 film I can't remember a single other death in it.
The acting is just horrible. I mean, I couldn't even remember the main character's name.
The exposition dump with Dr. Frank Mandel (Udo Kier) takes away from a lot of the suspense.
I hated the ending. Suzie walks out of the burning dance academy.
Roll credits. The End.
I mean, what?!
The Argento version feels as much as a comedy as a horror.
The remake combines style AND substance much better, imo.
The witches feel more flushed out than in the original.
Plus Tilda Swinton is just amazing!
I prefer the remake much more than the original.
I never understood why she just walked away instead of continuing to run 😂
I say this as a fan of the original...but spot on! This is one of those films which you're almost not allowed to criticise, and to which allowances are granted not afforded to other films.
I love Suspiria '77, I've bought it on multiple formats over the years...but I'm not unrealistic about it: much of it is outright comedic, and aspects of it are terribly executed. What it does well, it does very well...however that does not excuse its failings.
But ... giallo is literally made to be style over substance ... Everything you mentioned as "wrong" within the movie is what a "giallo" is lmao
Exactly!
Visually, the OG is very great, has a cool soundtrack, but everything else bored me :( I honestly expected way more after watching the MASTERPIECE Remake
I swear to you, I watched the OG and I was getting bored and sleepy and I thought, maybe we'll finally get something interesting... maybe I'm nearing halfway of the movie...
the shock I was in after noticing that I WAS AT THE ENDING
I was so disappointed TT
In my opinion, giallo films are just sophisticated arty type Slasher films
where the killer's identity is a mystery until the end of the film.
If you judge them on that basis nothing in the slasher genre comes
close other than Psycho which is the most sophisticated Slasher
there is in a way.
you are far too visual of a person to understand the deeper meaning of the remake.
SUSPIRIA FROM 1977 IS BETTER HATED THE REMAKES 🎉
I love this Original v Remake series
another great entry, Suspiria was just begging to be compared
Appreciate that!!
Suspiria 1977 handled tension very well through long scenes that feel eternal but don't feel like they drag on unnecessarily, but it ultimately seems directionless and is the ending is the wettest of farts. Stephen King endings look good next to it
The original suspiria is a mess because in the beggining it was going to be a dance school for kids..🙄
The original is a masterpiece, while the remake is a pretentious piece of crap with actually nothing to say and indeed as you say, the epilogue, as is the whole story of the old "man" is completely redundant and annoying. I just kept waiting for those scenes to end.
And what the hell was Thom Yorke's music doing in this film, and this coming from a Radiohead fan, it was a total disconnect and mismatch with the movie.
Actually what would have been a good use of time to fill 2,5 hours would have been spending time with Susy as she grew up among the Amish, because that seemed to be a far more interesting story.
I liked the use of dance for spell casting, that was cool, and of course Tilda Swinton is always interesting to watch.
That's it.
The original of course has been analyzed to death, the colours, outrageous sets, lighting, unusual camera angles, the goblins (in of itself the reason this movie is far superiour).
The deaths in the original are really original and wonderfully orchestrated, great jump scares like the murder in the square with the guide dog, fantastically handled also in camera work.
Of course the acting as well as the dialogue was crap, let alone the dreadful dubbing, but somehow it fit, the cheesiness, it was somehow perfect.
The original sucks. In the beggining the dance school was for kids..
I will always prefer the 2019 remake, sadly, the original bored me :/ but maybe I just need to re-watch and see if I change my mind
I quite enjoyed Chloe's scenes and the whole Psychiatrist storyline
A loved all the aspects of the film, and the way they approached everything to the last detail
The dream sequences are there for a reason and they elevate the film to perfection.
And as I finished this video it seems you don't get a lot of what the film is about, like Markos rotting away, the dream sequences, Chloe's scenes and the psychiatrist's storyline, and just the witches alone... they are not "evil", they're just in the middle of an internal power struggle while trying to survive the world they live in...
And this is so perfectly depicted...
Everything is, so it shocks me the way you dismissed a lot of it as "unnecessary" and almost "boring" lol
12:37 How's it satisfying to have Suzie kill a centuries old entity with one blow. I don't get it. Also was i supposed to cheer for character that had no depth in the 77' one? I REALLY don't get it.
I don't like either. But I like that the original felt more authentic, annoying as it was. The remake just feels like another trendy art film.
I`m surprised you didn`t like Suspiria 2018..The whole evil female cult thing is right up your alley.
The way she talks about it it seems she didn't get a lot of the remake's storytelling, approach and overall meaning :')
I prefer Suspriria 1977 over Suspriria with Dakota Johnson that movie was so frustrating, I even shat it off halfway through
11:17 - 12:08 oh okay, so you symply didnt understood sh.t abt the film! It make it clear.. i was so confused 😂🤦🤯🤡
The remake is just too damn pretentious and too long.
that's because you don't know what a witches sabbath is..
Omg Not Men
The original is one of my all time favourites. I absolutely hated the remake. The second film in the series Inferno is also very good. But do not watch the third instalment mother of tears, absolute shit. His daughter Asia plays the lead and her acting sucks. And there wasn’t anything Argento about the film. But my favourite scene in the original, is where that girl is trying to get away from the unseen killer, goes to climb out the window and then bam! Razor wire 😂
Suspiria (1977) is a gawddamn masterpiece. The remake is pretentious trash, outside of the score, it's pretty worthless.
You've got it backwards
@@JesusGomez-ob2qt Naw M8.
@@JasenPotts the new one isn't some half baked attempt at being "woke" or whatever you people love to say about anything involving politics. If you actually took the time to pay attention to the film you'd know it's a tightly written film about femininity feminism and queer identity. Every frame is oozing with contextual subtext. Just because it is a well made film doesn't make it pretentious trash. Stanley Kubrick films have just about the same amount of obsessive attention to detail yet you don't see people calling the shinning or a clockwork orange pretentious. Also I find it ironic you praise the soundtrack when it's probably the most pretentious part of the film! The original, now that is worthless. Theirs nothing of substance to it its just pretty colors and loud music. It's praised for its style yet Dario Argento is known to have stolen that very style from multiple other directors at the time. So not only is the original a mess but it's only defining feature is literally a stolen gimmick 💀 just because YOU didn't personally enjoy it doesn't mean it's an objectively bad film.
The original is incredibly pretentious. And I say that as someone who loves the original. You may not like the remake, which is fine, but it's clearly a well crafted film with very much its own identity - in fact there's nothing like it out there. Again, you may think that's a good thing in terms of enjoyment, but to just write it off as worthless trash is disingenuous.
@@NessNayii The remake had good intentions but wasn't faithful to the source material, it's so far off it's hardly recognizable as a remake, with all due respect, my criticism stands.
