Audience Member Watching Suspiria for the first time was a wild and creepy ride. As someone who is much more used to newer horror movies, this one felt really different. The story is about Suzy, an American student who goes to a ballet school in Germany, only to find out it’s run by witches. The movie is super colorful, with crazy lighting and music that makes everything feel intense and weird. It doesn’t rely on jump scares like most horror movies do today, but instead builds this strange, creepy feeling that sticks with you which I personally thought has a lasting impact. Some scenes felt a bit old fashioned, but the movie's style and mood kept me interested the majority of the time. It’s definitely one of the weirdest horror movies I’ve ever seen and I don’t think I’ll forget it anytime soon. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/23/25 Full Review Brianna D I just finished watching Suspiria and I’m not really sure how I feel about it. It’s about a girl named Suzy who goes to a ballet school in Germany and then weird stuff starts happening. People are dying and it turns out the school is connected to witches or something. The best part of the movie is how it looks and sounds. The colors are really bright and kind of strange but cool. The music is really loud and creepy and it definitely makes the movie feel more intense. The reason I gave it a 3 out of 5 is because the story didn’t always make sense. A lot of stuff felt random and confusing. The acting wasn’t that great either and some of the lines felt awkward. Overall it was interesting to watch and had a cool style but the story wasn’t that strong. I get why some people like it but I don’t think I would watch it again. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/19/25 Full Review Andrew R Suspiria Review After watching the film, I can say that it was actually quite interesting. I'm not a fan of horror films, or thrillers, but this one just kept me hooked. After the scene where Suzy was entering the school and she saw Pat running away from it, I immediately knew that there was about to be something very off about the school. Once Pat got murdered I think the film just immediately had a downward spiral from there. From these points on in the film I was completely hooked and on the edge of my seat waiting to find out what the next big/scary moment was going to be. Overall I would probably rate this film about an 8.7/10 overall, and I think that I would probably recommend this film to a friend who enjoys psychological thrillers. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/08/25 Full Review Audience Member The thing the stood out to me most in this film was the visual styled. I thoroughly enjoyed that aspect and it is honestly the main reason I continued to watch the film. The plot was definitely not all that and did not make much sense to me at times. I also felt like there was no character development. This horror film is definable unique when it comes to the way it was presented but because of the plot just being “meh” I do not love it. Would I recommend? Honestly, I don’t know. You could go without watching this movie and you won’t be missing out but I don’t think it’s a waste of time if you do decide to check it out. The film is very creative but the acting and plot was alright at best. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/11/25 Full Review Audience Member Full warning, I am not a fan of horror movies so my view may be biased. That being said, I do think any true horror fan would enjoy this movie. The special effects are not very good, but that’s expected from an older film. The mood is portrayed excellently from well-timed pauses to up the tension, to the whispers and threatening music. The storyline is rather interesting and if I didn't dislike gore and weren’t so easily scared, I’d rate this movie better. I don’t want to give much of the plot away, but I will say it feels a bit cliché, while also being one of the originals that created that cliché. I also loved how it went straight to the horror aspect right from the start with the rain, dark shadows on the character’s faces, and chilling music. The suspense starts right from the beginning of the film, even before the first murder shown within the first ten minutes. Overall, my rating of 3.5/5 is made in mind for someone who doesn’t like horror, so please keep that in mind when deciding if you want to watch this movie or not. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/02/25 Full Review Zandersaurus T "Suspiria" (1977) is honestly one of the most visually stunning horror films I've ever seen. Directed by Dario Argento, it's about an American ballet student named Suzy Bannion who joins a prestigious dance academy in Germany, only to find out that it's hiding some really dark secrets. The first thing that blew me away was the use of colors; it's like every scene is a piece of art. The intense reds and blues create this surreal, almost dreamlike atmosphere that's both beautiful and super frightening. The soundtrack by Goblin is another highlight—it's uncanny and really sets the mood. There are moments that genuinely gave me chills. If you're into horror and haven't seen it, you absolutely need to. It's more than just a film; it’s an experience that lingers with you. Totally recommend it!
