Tim brings one of his favourite horror movies to the podcast: Luca Guadagnino's Suspiria. The hosts talk horror remakes, Tilda Swinton and more in this discussion of the witchy and dense take on Dario Argento's original horror classic.

Synopsis
Susie Bannion, a naive midwesterner, travels to a divided Berlin to join the mysterious Markos Dance Company.

Starring Dakota Johnson and Tilda Swinton, Suspiria was directed by Luca Guadagnino, and released on November 2, 2018.

Suspiria is available to stream on Amazon Prime.

Scene [29:35 - 42:45}
Susie joins her first rehearsal with the company, which is interrupted when another dancer, Olga, quits, calling the instructors “witches”. Susie boldly steps in as the lead of the dance, while Olga attempts to escape the academy. On her way out, she is trapped by a curse, and painfully contorted by Susie’s dance.
