Suspiria color debate: Finally, the world starts talking about the missing red, after 'Movie Streamerz'
Everyone celebrated the shock value, Dakota Johnson and Tilda Swinton. "Dakota Johnson is unrecognizable..."; Some media went gaga for Tilda's transformation as an elderly man. Of course, transformation is not a new thing for Swinton who is known for her unbelievable makeovers, e.g. Snowpiercer, Trainwreck, We Need to Talk about Kevin, The Grand Budapest Hotel.
However, no one really cared about the look of the film. It appeared that the 'look' became overlooked amidst the flood of praises for the trailer. Movie Streamerz is one of the few movie websites that wrote about the lack of vibrant color in the remake by Luca Guadagnino.
Movie Streaming God had written that the presence of red color was the key factor that made the 1977 Dario Argento film unique. The remake, produced by Amazon Studios, looks like any other modern horror flicks in the first trailer ( they are very good though).
The point is without the color scheme or the Goblin soundtrack Suspiria will be just another witch tale. It cant' be Cold, Evil and Dark as per Guadagnino's justification for the lack of red color in his version.
Good. That is his justification. He has the freedom to make movie according to his vision and aesthetic preferences. However, the concern of Movie Streamerz was no other website had pointed out about the lack of color scheme in 2018 Suspiria remake trailer.
However, new update is that horror movie website Bloody Disgusting has wrote an editorial on the lack of color in Suspiria remake. It is shallow, yet thanks for bringing the debate to the mainstream, Bloody Disgusting.
