  "Ah, Lacan!"

  out of all the gruesome, unforgettable images whirling around in my head after seeing Suspiria on halloween, i keep coming back to this offhand comment made by dr. klemperer. it's a bit difficult to tell if his, "Ah, Lacan!" is sneering or impressed, if the doctor rejects or regards the controversial french psychologist's work. either way, there is definite validity in applying it to the film, especially since directer luca guadagnino comes from an academic background.

  so let's talk film theory, ladies and germs! i have a cinema studies degree and i swear to god i'm gonna use it for something!

  Lacan's theory of the "mirror stage" refers to the moment that infants begin to recognize themselves in…

Only by drawing some blood can you tell the two are even related.

  holy shit.

  this movie is visceral, tense, haunting, nightmarish, beautiful, and goddamn outstanding. the makeup is incredible, the body horror is fascinating, the effects look great (save for one key moment of visual effects.. hmm) the camera movement and choreography are wondrous, tilda delivers MULTIPLE great performances– even the “lack of color” that people were worried about when the trailer first dropped is a non-problem. it’s great. great great. it’s better than the original. i can’t believe the guy that made A Bigger Splash and Call Me By Your Name also had this crazy shit in him.

  that said, the one thing Suspiria has in common with those movies, is an incredible A-lister on the soundtrack making incredible music that...…
