I sat on this movie for a few days and this is the rating I decided on.  Don’t hate me.

While there were several truly awe-inspiring and horrifying sequences, everything else was surprisingly bland and/or unnecessarily confusing with a lot of aesthetic choices that I did not really understand.  I’m all for ambiguity in films, but I was really struggling to comprehend large chunks of the narrative even after the credits rolled.

I don’t think it’s a masterpiece, but Suspiria (2018) is still quite a good movie and one that I will not forget for a long time.  Tilda Swinton is a force of nature.
