Suspiria, 2018
Following his Oscar-winning romance “Call Me by Your Name,” Luca Guadagnino gave a go at a horror classic with “Suspiria” in 2018. Dakota Johnson is a young woman who leaves her Mennonite family in Ohio to audition for and learn as a dancer at a prestigious institution in 1988 Berlin. However, as her training progresses, it becomes evident that this dance ensemble is up to something wicked and witchy. Guadagnino’s version of the narrative is brilliant in how it blends supernatural horror to depict a real-life horror story about fascism and evil. Tilda Swinton is intriguing in this film, playing both the leader of the dancing troupe and a male doctor who is intrigued about what is going on at the school.
