I actually dig it. It's from Luca Guadagnino who did CMBYN so I immediately trust him with my life. I think he nailed the tone here. It looks different from the original but that's for the best. This teaser is weird as shit and I like the vibe
For months people got all upset about that Suspiria was getting a remake claiming that it'll 'probably be trash like all the other remakes'. I've always stood my ground about the fact that this was going to be different than the 'norm', ever since I heard who was gonna direct it. Luca Guadagnino is an artist who won't let studio expectations or anything like that effect his vision. He's essentially a 'Kubrick' of our age in that he's a versatile director who knows what he's doing with each genre he experiments with.
But most people were just jumping on the hate train. Have had to prove that point numerous times to people in the FB comments, most were pretty stubborn about it afterwards still.
Which is sad. But what's good though is that this trailer sparked a lot of hope in people. Am sad they didn't have that hope beforehand and actually did research instead of blindly hating. But yeah, better late than never!
Also, Thom Yorke is making his soundtrack debut! Which gets me hella excited! His band-mate Jonny Greenwood has been doing scores for over a decade now and has made some genuine masterpieces (There Will Be Blood, You Were Never Really Here, Phantom Thread, The Master, etc), so Thom has had many years to observe and get accustomed to what it takes to make a score. Given his often strange artistic decisions with actual Radiohead albums, I have full faith in that he'll truly make an unsettling score for the history books. It already sounds great in the teaser!
- music was great
- first death was REALLY great
- dream sequences were very unsettling watching alone at night
- v well directed
- I missed the amazing colors from the original but attempting to copy would’ve probably been bad
- the finale started to lose me a bit. CGI was a terrible choice. Original finale was WAY better
- liked the original better but this one was really solid and clearly a different vision so it was warranted
