Notes
Was this an absurdist film? It was unintelligible to me. I have not been a fan of horror films since earlist childhood. Susperia just reinforces my aversion. I did watch it to the end, though, in the hopes that it all would be made clear. It didn't happen!. No doubt it will be viewed as a cult film by the End Times.

Suspiria is Latin for " sighs" It is a remake of a 1977 Italian horror film directed by Dario Argento.
