Trailer
Why watch this film?
Remake of the Italian movie of the same name, originally released in 1977. Directed by Luca Guadagnino (of ‘Call Me By Your Name’), it explores the themes addressed by the story grandly and challengingly but flirting with the bizarre at times, resulting in a final product that may not be for everyone's taste. The fact is, the mix of art (through dance) and supernatural horror remains intriguing, made even more fleshy by a cast that includes names such as Chloë Grace Moretz (‘Kick-Ass’), Tilda Swinton (‘The Grand Budapest Hotel’) and Dakota Johnson (’Fifty Shades of Grey’). Even if it is confusing, ‘Suspiria’ should still please fans of more artistic horror.

Call Me By Your Name
Although the relationship between the characters of Timothée Chalamet and Armie Hammer has been problematized by their age difference and a possible issue of abuse of authority, ‘Call Me By Your Name’ is one of the most celebrated LGBT-themed films of recent times. Based on André Aciman's homonymous novel, the feature brings a strong sensitivity about a young man discovering his sexuality and falling in love with this older man, during the summer of the 1980s in Italy. It's an intense, passionate movie, and, especially, with a strong emotional charge - highlight, in this point, for the celebrated monologue of the father, played by Michael Stuhlbarg.
Bones and All
A violent and repulsive horror story can be, at the same time, a love story? Director Luca Guadagnino is back to propose this possibility with 'Bones and All', which successfully mixes the bloody horror of his movie 'Suspiria' with the tender sensuality of 'Call Me by Your Name', presenting with total authenticity and credibility a story about two young lovers who succumb to their cannibalistic instincts. The genre mix may be a bit shocking for some, but it is a well-crafted experiment by Guadagnino (winner of the Silver Lion of Venice for Best Director) that reaches both while resonating with its deep metaphor of youth alienation.
Horror
The Nightman
The Nightman a dramatic thriller that explores the dangerous boundary between love and darkness. The story follows a young pregnant woman who begins to question the perfection of her boyfriend upon discovering his possible involvement in mysterious disappearances and murders, linked to his sleepwalking behavior. With praised performances and precise direction, the film delves into complex themes of relationships and personal dilemmas, keeping the audience engaged in its dark suspense.
Abigail
Abigail demonstrates why we should keep an eye on the director duo Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, especially when they have original material at their disposal (they also directed Scream 5 and 6, with mixed results). Abigail is a film that manages to balance the terror and tragedy of its characters with the absurdity of its premise, thanks to a clever script that plays with the conventions of vampire literature, careful direction, and a phenomenal cast (led by Mexican actress Melissa Barrera and Dan Stevens) that fully utilizes their roles. The plot follows a group of kidnappers tasked with a delicate job: to kidnap a millionaire's daughter for ransom. However, it all turns out to be a trap: beneath the guise of a 12-year-old girl, the victim is actually an ancient vampire who likes to play with her food. Like Ready or Not in its time, this film is self-aware, pushing its story and violence to the most absurd and fun limits without falling into self-parody. It won’t change the history of horror cinema, but it’s an excellent (and even stylish for a film of its genre, I dare say) choice for a fun time at the movies with friends.
