Just rewatched Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge, the one with all the homoerotic overtones that's secretly about a guy realizing he's gay, and finally noticed that the sexually confused main character has a Kate Bush poster on his door.

Recently watched Let Me In. It's the American remake of Let The Right One In. It's not a bad film, but the whole time I was watching it I was just wishing I was watching the original which is one of my all time favorite movies. It tries really hard but just doesn't succeed in catching that same atmosphere and that finally scene in the pool is ruined with out the radio playing Flash In The Night before it gets kicked in. (Don't know why, but that song really plays into the atmosphere of that scene)
Also watched Kaleidoscope. Strange little indie film about a dude who starts losing his mind when his mom comes to visit. The ending had a twist I didn't see coming. It's a really eerie and strange film. Kind of builds up the psychological torment the main character is going through, who I'm fairly sure is schizophrenic.

Suspiria is an interesting film for me. I haven't watched it in a pretty long time and I think I should rewatch it now that I'm a little more analytical in how I assess my horror films. I remember thinking it was beautifully shot and choreographed but painfully boring in terms of plot progression. Nowadays a good slowburn, creepy atmosphere horror is some of my favorite **** to watch so I think I would appreciate it more.

I like Suspiria because of it's beautiful shots. I've only seen two movies by Dario Argento but both of them were very beautifully shot. Suspiria was much better even though it has so many slow points while the other one, Tenebrae, had some really really stiff acting.

I haven't seen the original and really liked the remake. It was horrifyingly sweet.

It's the same film almost shot for shot. Both are great.

Worse acting, less heart, reeked of cash grab
Also the fact they remade it so quickly for no reason except to appease American idiots that refuse to read subtitles meant I was inherently annoyed going into it from the start

Both films had passable performances tbh, that's not where the magic comes from.
