Review of Suspiria

Suspiria (I) (2018)
3/10
Yawn...
20 May 2019
Knowing the original film I was excited after watching the trailer thinking it was going to be a decent remake. Maybe I should've informed myself on the movie prior to watching it because I still don't know if it's a remake or something branching off the original. At this point I won't bother figuring that out.

Witches running a dance academy seems to be the only thing the 1977 and 2018 version have in common. Maybe there's more things they have in common but I would catch myself nodding off. Some people are saying if you enjoyed "The Shining" you will enjoy this movie. I'm sorry, but NO. The shining actually kept me intrigued and creeped out. This movie made me want to fall asleep. Variety is the spice of life and some will like it and others wont. I'm part of the latter group. A complete and utter bore, for me anyway.

If you like it, more power to you. I'm glad you enjoyed it. If you don't, welcome to the club.
