Suspiria (1977)



I'll admit I was hesitant to see such a highly-regarded movie. I hate hype; movies almost never live up to it. But I will also admit that I loved Suspiria. The story is simple but strong and effectively creepy, very much like an old fairy tale. And of course, it is absolutely stunning visually. Even if you have no idea what's going on, you can really enjoy just looking at Suspiria, it's that beautiful. Add perfect atmospheric music and you have a real masterpiece. So I guess sometimes movies DO live up to their hype.
