THIS BABY IS GONNA BE MINE!!
One of the top celebrated horror films in existence, Suspiria needs no introduction. With direction from genre master Dario Argento, the witch picture is as iconic as it gets. The film still ranks as one the most terrifying films I’ve ever seen, with a realness only surpassed by Tobe Hooper The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. And if that’s not high praise, I don’t know what is.
While there’s no release date, Synapse is saying the set streets by the end of the year. But with special features still being produced, it’s possible an early 2018 release is more practical. Either way, get your pre-orders in to secure your copy because these will go fast.
