Suspiria
Pure sensory assault. Goblin's score and Argento's visuals bypass rational thought.
Dario Argento's 1977 Italian giallo masterpiece uses Goblin's prog-rock score to attack the nervous system alongside candy-colored blood and impossible lighting, creating a fever-dream terror that is irrational and inescapable. This film is scary not through conventional jump scares but through a beautiful, irrational nightmare that lingers.
