Suspiria (2018)

Call Me by Your Name director, Luca Guadagnino's remake of Dario Argento's stylistic Gallo-horror masterpiece interestingly abandons the striking color and sound of the original for an opposing grey-noir cold war aesthetic. It is indeed still and not much happens, too little, but I found the world a quietly compelling one all on its own merit, deeply atmospheric and odd and with a denouement that finally tips over into Argento madness. (He is currently remaking Scarface no less).
