Recently The Guest and now Upgrade have hit me with as much force as The Terminator. Every so often another similar story comes along and grabs me personally. When I first saw it there was an indelible mark left on my sensibilities as a film lover.

James Cameron and Gale Anne Hurd’s 1984 movie is timeless. ★★★★★ For Father Gore, the bar for action/sci-fi/horror has always been The Terminator.
Starring Logan Marshall-Green, Melanie Vallejo, Steve Danielsen, Abby Craden, Harrison Gilbertson, Benedict Hardie, Richard Cawthorne, Christopher Kirby, & Betty Gabriel. To also show that Suspiriorum is not simply one who wreaks havoc, we also see that she goes to the suffering Patricia, Olga, and Sara and gives them the sweet release of a gentle death rather than obliterating them.Upgrade. Thus, Mother Suspiriorum is an avenging power that summons “Death” (as the character is credited) to come up from beneath the depths of the academy and lay waste to Markos and everyone who supported her. The movie isn’t saying that powerful women are bad it’s saying that anyone who abuses their power to their own ends rather than serving others is perverting that power.
We see it in Klemperer’s history as a Holocaust survivor we see it in the current events that pop up in the news during the movie and we see it inside the coven where the older women who are supposed to be teaching and helping the students are instead preying on them. Guadagnino is repeatedly hitting on a world where power has been abused, and those who feel no guilt or shame are running rampant. Why does Suspiriorum do this? My read on the ending is that Markos and those who support her have abused their power. When Susie arrives and sees Blanc and the grotesque Markos, there’s a couple of twists. The only outliers are those like Patricia and Olga ( Elena Fokina), who are now decaying but still somehow alive, as well as Susie’s friend Sara ( Mia Goth), who discovered the plot, but was captured by the witches and is disemboweled but kept alive as part of the ceremony. When the night of the ceremony finally arrives, we see that the coven is in control, and most of the young dancers are bewitched, performing in the ceremony. Blanc, reluctantly, starts to groom Susie for the ceremony, which means plaguing her with nightmares and stretching her ability to dance. The coven then settles on new arrival Susie Bannion ( Dakota Johnson), a preternaturally gifted young woman who grew up in a strict Mennonite background with an abusive mother. Klemperer believes that these are delusions subbing in for a dangerous political group, so he sends the police to investigate (the two officers are bewitched when they visit the academy and claim they found nothing out of the ordinary). Jozef Klemperer (Swinton again, this time under the pseudonym “Lutz Ebersdorf”), a Holocaust survivor.
They originally settled on Patricia ( Chloe Grace Moretz), who has been driven mad by the preceding ceremonies and tries to confide in therapist Dr. The purpose of the coven is to prime one of the young female dancers in the troupe for a ceremony which will imbue Markos with great power and a new body. These witches recently held a vote for who would lead the coven, and they voted in favor of Madame Markos over Madame Blanc (both played by Tilda Swinton). Go down a level from there, and you have the coven of witches running the dance academy in 1977 Berlin. They are Mother Suspiriorum, Mother Tenebrarum, and Mother Lachrymarum. We’re told that there are three “mothers”, elder gods of great power who existed before time and the universe. To begin, it’s important to understand the overall mythology of Suspiria. That’s particularly true of the film’s bloody climax where some surprising reveals are brought into play to hammer home the film’s themes about power, perversion of power, motherhood, and sisterhood. But there are times when the plot can be so abstract that it’s a bit hard to get on the same page. It’s layered with subtext and themes that should have you and your friends talking afterwards about Luca Guadagnino’s remake of the 1977 horror classic. Suspiria is a movie that loves to live in the abstract.
