Datio Argento - opening of Suspiria 1977

[@konstantinoskaragiannis1596]

"Suspiria"(1977) is one of the best and most scariest horror movies of all time! This is a unique masterpiece!

[@robertpreston7247]

Obra Maestra. Acabo de percatarme de la toma del acantilado con una luz particular y ver la transición hacia la luz del vehículo entre los árboles. Genial.

[@mojok7070]

This film terrified me as a kid. The scary scenes, colouring the loud scary music. I rewatched after so many years and still those music puts chills down my spine

[@georgeofhamilton]

Why would you watch this as a kid?

[@rodypollock8935]

my mom took me to see this as a kid, as a adult I REFUSE to look out windows at night.

[@Aracatamus]

Lead actress in this is really beautiful. She's a great actress too. I also love the lighting in this film as well as the music.

[@helvete_ingres4717]

There are many great things about this movie. Great acting is not one of them.

[@CATDIGITAL]

Never underestimate the power of the "witches", talking about them and their secrets can be extremely dangerous. Greetings from the homeland of magic, TURIN!

[@enzo8151]

suspiria, the best horror film all the time.

[@spaceflight111]

What I find interesting about the intro is how Suzy is surrounded by the colour red, from the clothing of the people around her to the lighting, symbolizing perhaps the danger and death that will surround her once she begins her stay at the academy. Also notice how every time the exit doors to the airport open, the haunting music starts then stops when the doors close. The woman in the red coat who exits the airport is also the woman fleeing from the academy at the beginning of the film. From the get go, Suzy is being assaulted, first by the elements as she exits the airport and then by the powers that be at the academy.

Woman in red pant suite is co-writer Daria Nicolodi and Argento's girlfriend at the time, a cameo. The reflected face in the taxi is Dario making a demon face and giving himself a cameo. Nicolodi is not the girl running away from the academy when Jessica shows up. Think about it, it makes no sense.

[@pinkdolly]

spaceflight111 she’s surrounded by primary colors because they are childish and I think also because they are sort of primal

[@XxCrankxXforEPvP]

Red is the main "symbol" colour of suspiria!

[@spaceflight111]

Interesting observation. Makes a lot of sense.

[@Buckaroo_Baldwin]

@iflarnted That's actually been disproven Daria isn't in this movie, not even a cameo.

[@Witchery13]

Better than 2018!

[@SandroBiagioni12]

Masterpiece!!!

[@modder1975]

Best opening scene. More scary than many modern 'scary' movies today.

[@XxCrankxXforEPvP]

modder1975 so true. Good old times when horror films were scary and jumpscares were a rare phenomenon

[@princeeverlove]

In my Top 10 Chilliest Movies Ever!

[@noah.blackwood]

Anyone notice the scythe shadow on the tree when the lightning flashed?

[@workoutfanatic7873]

One of my favorite intros, so foreboding. thanks for the upload. I have three copies of this on DVD as it's one of my top horror movies of all time. The story is meh, but the music, cinematography, sets, casting (Harper looks like a doe) etc. are all among the best of all time.

[@KazzKobb]

pause at 1:57 you can see a reflection of a persons mouth behind the driver

[@spaceflight111]

Good catch, never noticed that.

[@Collectorfrom80s75]

Is Dario Argento!

[@federica9090]

Where? I don't see it

[@KazzKobb]

Fe De Sorry for my late reply. You can see it behind the driver's neck.

[@markydkiehl]

wow kinda looks like a hand over the person's shoulder

[@julietfischer5056]

That score is best described as 'Madwoman's Musicbox.'

[@SamuelBlack84]

I call it "Demons Charade of Vocals"

[@MLCrow]

3:28 reflection on the tree

[@ulzlaes1173]

Radio Argento :P

[@recorderlearning9374]

Masterpiece of horror ! Remake with Tilda Swinton is terrific too !

[@omarmarchi5687]

Muy buena película !!!

[@fabi1868]

Film tenebroso

[@TheDropOfTheDay]

3:13 WITCH

[@nickdark0]

U can see humanoid shadows when the lighting strikes in that scene and with the music is creepy as fuck

[@jpmacc94]

Watched this on acid when I was young and foolish,,,,been in an asylum ever since

[@jokermebad31]

Hey it's Dario Argento.

[@EdjeMr1975]

The 1977 version is so hard to find on Dvd ... 😠

[@Elizalustof]

This movie looks immense. BUT I don't get why the witches had a dance school and what did they want with the young dancers?

[@myneighbourjohnturturro]

That bit where the American yells: TAXI at every car and expects it to stop. Welcome to Europe.

[@SkandikFilm]

what airport is this ?

[@Tom-pj9ts]

It was filmed at the old Airport München-Riem (Munich). I think in the movie this should be the non existing Freiburg Airport.

[@Zombiesnyder13]

I can't wait to see the remake with Chloe Grace Moretz

[@Star_butterfly-fh2bw]

Is there part 2 to this movie

[@carnivalofroses]

TheCapcom1996 check out "Inferno"

[@princeeverlove]

"Inferno" is considered a direct SEQUEL --and yes, it is just as Chilling!

[@riccardomallardo9929]

Suspiria is the first of a trilogy of films by Argento, referred to as "The Three Mothers". The trilogy centers around three witches, or "Mothers of Sorrow" who unleash evil from three locations in the world. In Suspiria, Helena Marcos is Mater Suspiriorum(lit. Latin: "Mother of Sighs") in Freiburg. Argento's 1980 film Inferno focuses on Mater Tenebrarum (lit. Latin: "Mother of Darkness"), in New York City. The final installment in the trilogy, The Mother of Tears (2007), focuses on Mater Lachrymarum (lit. Latin: "Mother of Tears") in Rome.

[@mrmichaelmcsween5917]

Who killed pat hingle? Was it Helena markos?

[@paytonv8315]

How did she die again?

[@NordikFilm]

that is a small screen.

[@corpse74]

The movie was filmed in 1970 and shot with a 35mm anamorphic lens...

[@thatretroguy]

1977

[@corpse74]

That was the release year.

[@WrittenFolklore]

@@corpse74 Wait... So you are saying that it was filmed in 1970, yet released in '77?? Yet Suspiria was co-written by Daria Nicolodi, whom he met on the set of Profondo Rosso in 1975? Doesn't seem possible. Even if it was somehow filmed in '70... What would the reasoning be for holding it back 7 years?

[@victorq281]

The remake is trash imo. This original is a classic, and the soundtrack along with the bright colors make it iconic.

[@user-eo3kd5sj6k]

i respect both films. There is to say, this film is unique, and wether people like it or not, many filmakers watch to steal ideas/ get inspired. Argento has remarkable good taste in scenery. I't not just that it was the 70's, this guy was deeply visual.

[@laquetepario8396]

hasta ahí nada muy "suspirador" lol

[@vincentdc211]

It is bullshit this movie is not available for rent or purchase, not streaming or a physical copy.
