In the occasion of halloween the theatres showed a special performance of “Suspiria”\u00a0<\/em> a horror film from the late seventies. I was thinking why not and left home to watch this “most terrifying horror of all times” kind of film. You know when you watch a film that old that the special effect and sound is not what you are used to. There is no way and no reason to try and compare with a recent movie, that would just not be fair.<\/p>\n

The set is psychedelic and very seventies with wall paper that makes you dizzy, symmetri that I’m not even sure actually exited but supports the mystery of the film. The sound was high pitched and made you wonder what they were smoking writting music in the seventies.<\/p>\n

The story is about a young american woman who moves to Germany to attend a prestigious ballet school. At the same time a serie of murders takes place and she finds out that something is not as it should be at the school. Watching it now it’s more fun than scary, but I can imagine how it must have been 40 years ago when it first came out. The mystery, the scary scenes, the up and close cutting and grusomme murders. When watching “old” films you know that the tempi is not as the latest action\/thriller film produced the last decade, it’s slow and dialogue is a whole other level. It absolutely not a bad thing and eventhough the film at some points seem ridicolous and merely funny, I never find it slow or tedious. It is a great example of a good horror film from that time.<\/p>\n
