Episode 105: Suspiria (2018)

This week, Gavia and Morgan debate Luca Guadanigno's remake of the classic Italian horror film Suspiria. Topics discussed include how the new film stacks up against the original, its use of dance, Tilda Swinton's many performances, and its dubious handling of its Cold War setting.
