“Susie... Sarah... I once read that names which begin with the letter 'S' are the names of SNAKES! Sssss! Ssssss!” We watched “Suspiria” (1977) with our friend Devin Lotfi (I Don't Want to Hear That Podcast) and we’re taking a trip down the witches road (no, not that one).  You can’t get any more niche than 1970’s Italian horror, but our man Dario Argentina is the master and “Suspiria” is the icon of the genre. Argento’s stylized use of primary colors gives the movie an expressionistic vibe and makes it stand out from the usually dark tone of more mainstream horror films.  The neon palette used here is almost a trope in modern art house horror but in 1977 this was revolutionary. Jessica Harper is our ethereal American student amongst the fierce European witches that run the mysterious dance academy. We’ve also got a blind piano teacher, a lumbering, mute manservant and some male dance students with ambiguous intentions rounding out the spooky tone.  We defy you to assign the significance of the bright reds, blues and greens that are cast over the scenes. The story may seem at times illogical or confusing but it all comes together in the final - extremely scary - moments. The only more terrifying about the last twelve minutes of this podcast, are the first eighty nine!  Thanks for listening and don't forget to subscribe, rate and review us on Apple Podcasts! www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgay Facebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay Twitter: @MTMUGPod Scott Youngbauer: Twitter @oscarscott / Instagram @scottyoungballer Peter Lozano: Twitter/Instagram @peterlasagna
