In 1977, director Dario Argento sought to make a horror movie unlike any other. You can’t dissect 2018’s “Suspiria” without learning about the original iteration.

The Original “Suspiria” The original version differs in more than color palette from the 2018 “Suspiria.” Here is Luca Guadagnino’s “Suspiria” explained. Rich in subtle symbolism and loaded with obscure themes, it takes a lot to unpack this masterpiece of body horror, sinister choreography and macabre plots.

Film is the culmination of multiple facets of art, such as photography, writing, choreography and acting.
