The highlight of this film isn't really the routine plot, but rather Argento's all-encompassing treatment, from the dizzying, colored lights and gore effects to the deeply menacing score by Goblin.

...as an appetizer to the thoroughly bizarre world of Italian horror, Suspiria is the perfect antipasto.

The beauty of this film is hypnotic. It draws the viewer in, casting a spell of its own. It is utterly bewitching.

Et mørkt truende eventyr, med udgangspunkt i de menneskelige fortrængninger.

Banbrytande film för cinematografin med ett helt unikt bildligt uttryck genom både kulisserna och ljussättningen. Handlingen är dock lite otydlig och den enligt mig förfärligt enerverande musiken drar ner betyget lite.

Skuespillet er halvdårligt, men med hensyn til farverige billeder og unikke stemninger er det en klassiker. Føles som at have mareridt i vågen tilstand.

...en neonfarvet heksegyser med både snigende og eksplosiv uhygge.

...en genialisk fullträff inom skräckgenren. Musiken, ljuset och bilderna är unika och skådespel­arna gör riktigt starka insatser.

Suspiria, a prestigious German dance academy, welcomes American ballet student Suzy Bannion amidst a torrential downpour. But as Suzy settles in, she discovers that something sinister lurks within the school's walls. Pat Hingle, another student, is brutally murdered on her first night, and Suzy's investigation into Sara's disappearance leads her to uncover a dark secret: the school is run by a coven of witches who perish without their leader, Helena Markos. As Suzy delves deeper into the mystery, she finds herself trapped in a terrifying supernatural world where the instructors plot human sacrifices and an invisible Markos taunts her with reanimated corpses.
