31 Days of Horror (Halloween) 2021 (34 movies items)" Date: 10/31/2021 Viewed: 4K UHD Re-Watch Note: Happy Halloween everyone (Halloween is probably over by the time when I post this review). I chose to end October by watching my favorite Italian film in 4K UHD. I know a lot of people have already seen this film, so I'll try to keep my thoughts to a minimum. Suspiria is a masterpiece of Italian horror. Suspiria is the perfect blend of exploitation and art-house cinema. It's not as high brow as a Federico Fellini film, but it's classier than mos"
October 2021 Horrorfest (70 movies items)"Re-watch - Oct. 14th Back in the '00s, one of my closest friends hosted a horror marathon in October. That night, we saved Suspiria for last & it's safe to say that by the time we got to it nobody was in the right mood for it. I didn't fully realize this at the time, but as a result I thought it sucked. As time has passed I came to the conclusion I should give it another chance. It rarely seems to pop up on streaming services, however, so when I found out one of the local theatres here was show"

My Top 275 Favorite Horror Movies of All Time (275 movies items)"A young woman travels from the States to Germany so that she can enroll into a prestigious academy of dance. And soon finds that, instead of the graceful gallop of ballet, her instructors are more focused on the mystic moves that come from dancing with the devil. No matter what decade of cinema it is, past or present, most movies that have a dark themed story-line about dark magic try to convey their dark feeling of darkness by monochromatically limiting the color schemes to one or two dar"
Watched films in 2021 (161 movies items)"25.6. Blu-ray Uusintakatselu. Tarina on, kuin klassisesta sadusta. Muistuttaisin jälleen alunperin oppilaiden olleen käsikirjoituksessa noin kymmenvuotiaita (kts. myös ovennuppien korkeus korostamassa pienen ihmisen pienuutta valmiissa tuotteessa). Logiikka unta ja tunnelma ainutlaatuinen. Visuaalinen ilme Technicolor-väreineen, anamorfisine vääristymineen ja post-ekspressionismivaikutteisine lavasteineen puhtainta painajaista. Goblinin musiikit parasta. Mestariteoksen asema silmissäni"
Witches from Film & TV!
“Noteworthy for its detached, delusory setting and characterised by express shifts in light and colour, "Suspiria" accurately captures the visceral perception and sensation of a nightmare, which in this context centres on witchcraft. In part inspired by the vivid hand-drawn cut-out animation of "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs", the film was shot with evocative Eastman colour stock and Technicolor processing to achieve a palpable, entirely unique neon composition. Utilising complex lighting methods, peculiar camera angles, and meticulously designed set-pieces, the majority of "Suspiria" does have the striking effect of an animation in that its chromatic delineation, shot using anamorphic lenses, is a sense-driven, diverting experience that is as much illustrative and stylised as it is psych” read more
