Critics Consensus

Suspiria attacks heady themes with garish vigor, offering a viewing experience that's daringly confrontational - and definitely not for everyone.

Guadagnino claims that his Suspiria is not a remake at all but a cover version. If that's the case, it can only be the equivalent of turning a three-minute glam stomp into a bloated rock opera.

Kajganich is a purveyor of pretentious piffle.

The acting is superb, and fills in the gaps of the script, that really doesn’t do you a lot of favors in spelling out what is going on. It is a very effective film and should stick with you and give you plenty to talk about with your friends.

Suspiria’s unifying theme is robbed of its potency by an inscrutable plot, opaque characters, and an excess of cinematic flourishes.

Suspiria is weird, disturbing, and definitely not for everyone… but I kinda dug it.

Yikes! They tried hard for artsy and epic and all they made was long and mostly dull. The grand finale and interspersed action didn't make up for this ham handed snoozer

Suspiria is a strange and creepy movie about a student who goes to a dance school and discovers that something is wrong there. The bright colors, loud music, and dark hallways made the movie feel like a nightmare. Some parts were confusing, but I liked how the movie used its look and sound to build fear. I would recommend it to people who enjoy horror movies that feel different from modern ones.

I've watched this movie four times and each time, I find that there are more layers that reveal themselves. It's definitely a great film and I plan on watching it again.
