SUSPIRIA

A darkness swirls at the center of a world-renowned dance company, one that will engulf the artistic director, an ambitious young dancer, and a grieving psychotherapist. Some will succumb to the nightmare. Others will finally wake up.

An interesting film but a rather useless remake of Dario Argento's masterpiece. Gone are the lush visuals of the original. Gone is the thunderous musical score by Goblin. This new version drags on forever, feeling the need to over explain everything. And the less said about the cgi gore, the better. Still when everything was over, I wasn't sure if I enjoyed it or not.

The Blu-ray edition comes with a digital code (available in the US only.) It feature a 1.85:1 (16x9) 1080p high definition transfer using a MPEG-4 AVC codec. The image looks great, with deep blacks and good color saturation. We get a loud, crisp and clear English Dolby Atmos audio track. English and Spanish subtitles are available. There are three featurettes on the disc; "The Making of Suspiria", "The Secret Language of Dance" and "The Transformations of Suspiria".
