Suspiria 1977 or Suspiria 2018?

[@hedonutopic]

2018

[@robinmittner4303]

1977, no question

[@alexhartman6144]

Definitely the argento version. But the 2018 version was surprisingly really great though. Also, the Synapse 4k release of Suspiria 77 is absolutely beautiful and you should definitely get it. lol

[@dee817bs]

original

[@YesThatNeal]

2018

[@Johnny_Socko]

I think this is one of the greatest movies of the past 10 years. It commits to a style and a tone, and it doesn't waver. It depicts chaos and insanity with detailed precision. And it makes outstanding use of the period and location. I think it can stand proudly alongside Argento's original; but in execution it was much more similar to "Possession" (1981) -- one of the most overlooked horror-dramas ever made.

[@HauntFreak13]

I’m really sad we’ll never get a sequel.

[@mholliday2411]

Possession is def a top 10 film that never gets mentioned enough. It’s starting to get more attention each year but nothing close to the praise it deserves.

[@LanceLustHugeTheWarningFan]

You should go over to the RegionFree Season 3 crowd and give them your mind. They refuse to talk about this movie without derision. The host of the channel is a published novelist and yet he prefers the original which has no story compared to the remake which is rich in depth and storytelling.

[@YesThatNeal]

Super underrated remake! The first watch I had a lot of questions. The second watch answered them for me, then learning Tilda played three roles made it an instant favorite for me. I watched the original many years ago and as much as I appreciate it, I like this remake more.

[@reservoirdude92]

Also, Thom Yorke's score for this is TOP notch ❤

[@NessNayii]

I'm glad you enjoyed/were moved by this. For my money it's a criminally underrated work of art that is definitely due for reappraisal. It works on a purely narrative level, and its world building is immersive. But its dissection of facets of human psychology, how those aspects then plays into our ideologies, following which how those ideologies can become fanaticism, is inspired. Such a rich thematic experience.

[@victordelgado1107]

Im glad you guys liked it! I love it and I think it's highly underrated.

[@lanagievski1540]

As a fan of the original, I really enjoyed this film. I adore the stylisation of the OG, but this feels more like a fully fledged film if that makes sense.

[@lddevo88]

I remember seeing this in cinemas when it first came out and thinking that the Thom York score didn't quite fit the mood for me. Upon rewatching, I can't imagine anything else in its place. Such a haunting and beautiful film, and a wonderful score that gives it an emotional depth that trancends the screen.

[@LateCambrian]

Love this director: he also did Bones and All, Call me By Your Name… great

[@LateCambrian]

Tilda Swinton plays three characters in this movie.

[@SavageGrace]

Nice to see they got in the Suzy Bannion from the '77 original (Jessica Harper) for a cameo appearance. She plays Anka, Dr. Klemperer's wife.

[@Diegesis]

Dope!

[@Wraiven22]

This 👏🏻 is 👏🏻 how 👏🏻 you 👏🏻 do 👏🏻 a 👏🏻 remake 👏🏻

[@Drforrester31]

I've heard that Tilda Swinton specifically asked for a prosthetic frontspiece when playing the naked Josef, which makes me love this movie all the more

[@KayinAngel]

Tilda Swinton plays Dr. Josef Klemperer too .. why? For fun apparently.

[@TheCryptofHorrors-DerCryptaxis]

It's so great to see deeper Horror dives here, yeah it was a more mainstream release but it's not the typical film, and the Analysis at the end is so much smarter than I'm used to from places, they really understood quite a lot of this fairly difficult high concept material.

[@chriswerth918]

One most stunning things about this movie is the nearly perfect pronounciation of the german words, by Tilda Swinton. When you are used to hear german, you will quite easyly recognize if someone, who doesn't speak German, is just recapitulating words. I'm not talking about accents. You would just recognize if the one knows the language , or not. As it is in Tilda's case. She does clearly not understand the language, itself But her pronunciation, the timing and the rhythm of the words are almost perfect. Dispite the fact that she played three different roles in this film - which in itself makes this movie her masterpiece - the time and effort she must have put into her way to speak one of the most difficult languages, is awesum!

[@toiletghost4130]

Love both versions for what they are, both excellent. The vibes, colors, and score in the original are unparalleled, like a Disney Princess movie possessed by a demon. Y’all should definitely watch

[@reservoirdude92]

One of the few remakes that actually surpasses the original. I personally prefer Argento's original nightmare fantasy, but this re-working is on another level, story wise, and packs an emotional wallop to boot.

[@karlmoles6530]

Inferior in every way, sorry

[@slonmish]

that’s a great reaction, you understood practically everything from the get go. people don’t get the setting sometimes

[@TheAbominableDrFaustus]

The reason I respect this movie, was that it was not Argento. By design. This is a beautiful film. In its own right.

[@hotflesh66]

Damien Jalet did the dance choreography which was the main element missing from the original 1977 version of Suspiria. I find both films equal in what they present to an audience. One is much more subdued and intellectual approach while the other is a candy coated rock nightmare fable.

[@Diegesis]

lol i like those descriptions

[@bethpent8851]

Loved watching it again for the 3rd time with you girls. Your expressions were hilarious its one of my favorite horror movies.

[@dangchanneldeg6948]

That wife story and the Holocaust made me cry a bunch.

[@JLamstudio]

Well, now you have to do HIGH TENSION, a 70s-inspired sexy French horror film that’s actually terrifying and SUSPENSEFUL AF

[@YesThatNeal]

and the other French masterpiece, MARTYRS.

[@Wraiven22]

Watched this last month, absolutely LOVED it until the twist. It really made the whole movie’s logic fall apart for me and had some potentially homophobic undertones. It was a solid 8/10 for me until that.

[@grumpysorus7997]

THIS!

[@FloatingWhales]

@@Wraiven22 Absolutely, the twist was nonsensical, the movie fell apart because of it. The director tried explaining it, but too many issues with the timeline and sequence of events.

[@sergiobalderas7419]

The photography of this movie is amazing

[@RILakeLife88]

One of the best remakes ever made

[@Allonsy305]

I'd argue that this is one of the best remakes ever made based on how singular, but still familiar to the original it is. Plus the cinematography and editing feels so frightening and unique, but still fitting to the tone of the film. And the nightmares renind me of The Ring.

[@micklefox]

The choreography of Damien Jalet is otherworldly and very disturbing. Every dance I’ve ever seen of his performed makes my skin crawl. He really goes for something ancient and superstitious… violent and abstract. And he and other choreographers like Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker used that floor geometry in their stage performances… This movie came out right as I was getting ready to transition out of a dance company and I was amazed at how the politics of a company reinforced the themes of the film. Very powerful, but deeply disturbing.

[@jbacunn]

Maple did not say the name of the movie correctly the first time. 😆

[@MapleDivine]

Help because I was so confident 💀😂

[@lee32476]

Oh damn, I thought I’d clocked you both as dancers, glad to see I was right. It’s always a treat to see folks from this world react to this movie. It’s such a specific form of mindfuck. I’m a dance-adjacent person, so this kind of horror, like Black Swan feels so specifically created for us. Love this movie so much

[@freeheeler00]

So glad to see this true gem getting love from the KZbin community!

[@lordhoot1]

Not a big horror fan but I really enjoyed this. Love the 1970s Berlin setting, and the overwhelming melancholy of it all

[@KnightofEkron]

One of my all-time favorite movies.

[@pmaximus5659]

I’m looking forward to this! Love what you both have done to your hair style.. color change looks great on both of you 😊

[@tertra114]

I’m glad to see I’m not the only one traumatized by that ending scene 😭

[@GrayMoe]

An underrated horror film. 😊

[@IMold363]

Wanna hear a wild fact about this movie? The soundtrack was composed by Thom Yorke, the lead singer and writer for Radiohead 😂

[@dilaraozcaner]

this is one of my favorite movies and i really think it is better than the original

[@FilmSureelist97]

The unmade scene is absolutely poetic and chaotic all at once

[@pinutpants]

I love channels that do themes with IRL. 😭😭😭😭 such quality content lmaooooo keep it uppppp

[@GoonHandz]

2018 for sure. i love this movie. weird as all hell, but i love it. you all should check out bones and all (2022)… another luca guadanino classic. more maple AND ariana though.

[@bethpent8851]

They need to watch Hostel. Starry Eyes is another good one.

[@dudermcdudeface3674]

Original Suspiria is a great showcase of visuals and atmosphere, but not much past that. This is a much better horror film overall, with actual feelings, passionate acting, and mythic depth. The end sequence with them dancing and dying in red light with gentle music is very David Lynch-ian.

[@AutomanicJack]

great reaction, love this movie, so many things they did right in this movie

[@kevindorn2508]

Picking up good ones. 'Only lovers left alive' for a cool and chill vampire movie.

[@ZUSHxH]

You guys should watch (THE CELL) with Jennifer Lopez

[@Emma88178]

I was really hoping that Luca Guadagnino would remake all three films of the Three Mothers trilogy. But it looks like it won't happen. At least not any time soon. ☹️

[@gilsurf8]

My favorite movie of 2018.

[@thepeterparkershow]

Now they gotta watch “Antichrist”

[@LordVolkov]

Argento's Inferno is another interesting exploration of witches.

[@KngFish]

'The haunted brassieres of diegesis' .... could be a miniseries

[@marbase1son]

i forgot how much i love this

[@isaac.genesis]

One of my favourite movies 👌

[@hedonutopic]

Yessssssssss

[@Laveluvcrew]

The old man is played by the same actress who played the head dance instructor/witch Tilda Swinton

[@Simyonovich]

So glad to see a quality reaction to such a criminally overlooked masterpiece

[@fenixmacariuscornett1675]

*RECOMMENDATION; THE TERROR (2018)* How do I go about campaigning to get them to watch The Terror? It’s short there’s no reactions on it and I loved that show.

[@belomettinavyy1068]

That’s strange this for me was more scary then Shining.. maybe because I had to watch Shining for school homework

[@Diegesis]

yeah i agree. i too was surprised that the girls thought it was medium scary in comparison.

[@belomettinavyy1068]

​@@DiegesisTastes are tastes.. as you might know not even the author of Shining (Stephen King) liked the Shining movie by Kubrick. - Btw those horrified expressions priceless, are a bit too much for a ''non horror'' movie 7:31 personally i woulnd't want even pretend or force myself to make expressions if the sht ain't scary, to me to be scared it takes a lot when this movie ended i genuily felt sad because i liked what made me feel inside, emotions, hard to explaine. truly such a pleasure to watch

[@alexanderson6371]

Have them watch Climax

[@Damiana_Dimock]

I love this film, (far superior to Argento’s ‘77 film of the same name,) it’s a 5/5 for me. When it comes to Argento’s trilogy, I personally prefer Inferno to Suspiria. Sure, the original film is good but I find there were plenty of giallo filmmakers at the time getting just as experimental, not to mention one of the earlier works in the genre, Mario Bava’s Blood & Black Lace. I will say, I do kind of see the 2018 film as an evolution of what Argento was doing with his films, if he’s not created that mythology I don’t think this film could have been what it was. I’m glad y’all seemed to enjoy it. I put on Thom Yorke’s score every so often as well, usually that and the Mandy score.

[@shaunaray1]

What i still don't understand is why the woman with the glasses stabbed herself in the neck?

[@Diegesis]

totally agree but i have created a headcanon to make it make sense to me. she seems "touched" and i think she may have had oracular powers, so knowing what was coming decided to end it. that's the best i can come up with cause it isn't clear.

[@josephirizarry5195]

she knows something is coming, look how she runs away when she sees Suzy, look at her during the voting scene, she's terrified because she knows something is on it's way and she is guilty.

[@LanceLustHugeTheWarningFan]

Have you reacted to Nope 2022?

[@allier1867]

i like this one better idk. all i wish is for more people to watch either tbh :D

[@Hope2BHappy]

I heard Skeleton Key mentioned near the end. Does that mean you recorded a reaction to it and we can be expecting it soon?

[@Diegesis]

Nah it's just a movie she's seen on her own

[@evacombs9720]

Man, you guys are going for some of the most disturbing witch movies this season... You might add, The Witches, with Angelica Houston which has some disturbing moments.

[@Brandon-zb4bs]

omggg you guys should react to the movie 'Mother!' with jennifer lawrence in it if u havent already outside of this channel.

[@snakehandler87]

O.G....all the way...remake is good tho comparatively

[@danijel83]

2018

[@TheAbominableDrFaustus]

The 1977 Suspiria was the beginning of Argento’s Three Mothers Trilogy. I recently heard a theory that the 2018 Suspiria, Midsommar, and The Witch are the new Three Mothers.

[@l.gaga5508]

12:23 the girl on the left is too stunned to speak😭

[@Gonzalo_Almendra]

I prefer the original version from 1977 because the 2018 version removes many of the gore and terror that the original version had. I don't understand why movie studios don't respect the original versions of their classic films. I have an idea. It would be great if You will tell the information about the movie on which streaming platform it is available in the US, the United Kingdom and some places. Some content creators do that before starting the reaction video I hope you can respond and know the idea I left Diegesis 🙏🏻🎃🧡

[@karlmoles6530]

The original is a lot better. Just saying. Not that this is bad or anything. It's a just a masterpiece. Hard to compete with a masterpiece

[@billyrawlings5848]

You're watching an ode' to the devil, watch yourself girls

[@Diegesis]

It's not the devil. It's the three mothers

[@fairytalepurityanalyser6056]

Shame they had to use inferior technology than in 1977 to film it though.

[@philamakhanya4908]

Can we get a Sweeney Todd reaction?? Horror Musical could be fun

[@sesh8863]

Why would you not watch the original...

[@MapleDivine]

Why not watch every movie ever made

[@markcreemore4915]

It's not Suspiria unless Dario Argento directed it in 1977. This is a cringey imposter.

[@76063co2]

Um....I think you watched the wrong movie. I'm betting your viewers wanted you to watch the original 1977 classic, not this 2018 remake, which I think is inferior to the original.

[@Diegesis]

our viewers are millenials. they don't even know about the 77 version. i meant to have them watch this movie cause i love it. easily my top 5 horror movies.

[@76063co2]

@@Diegesis OK, you know your audience better than I do. I'm sure this movie has it's fans, such as you, and if you wanted to react to it, that's all that matters. But you do react to older films such as The Shining, so I think your audience is more aware than you just gave them credit for.

[@Diegesis]

i would argue the shining is fathoms more famous than suspiria. the shining might be like top 20 most recognizable titles of all time and neither reactor had heard of either suspiria until i showed them. not even the word. they had to call me to figure out how to pronounce it.

[@andreww1225]

I feel sorry you had to watch this movie lol

[@chadstchad]

i think everyone else is sorry for you my dude… 😂 im sorry this big boy movie was too much for your little boy brain.

[@andreww1225]

@@chadstchad wow guess I really hurt your feelings, such a mature response lol

[@castoputa]

It’s from an eighteenth century book that isn’t nearly as good as this movie lol, but it does create quite an appetite for background lore. Great reaction, I was mesmerised
