this reality dissolving technique is cool.

I wonder what the killer is trying to accomplish by showing Madison these kills.

Maybe Wan was pissed off he couldn't get the Suspiria remake, so he made this. :P

Was he really going for that? Because I think he would have made a 10x better one.

I'd settle for 10x more colorful, but I guess it's hard to properly emulate the classic of Italian horror.

If this was all a dream while she hit her head in the beginning I'm going to punch someone in the throat.

I was talking the remake to be clear, Dakota Johnson one sucked. I love Argento's.

I don't think a high budget movie would play a finale like that. That'd be damn ballsy, though.

I haven't seen the new Suspiria, but I guess it sounds like I'm not missing out.

I wonder why Gabriel waited so long to act if he's been around Madison most of her life. I'm guessing that Gabriel was somewhere else during a lot of her life (unless he caused Madison's other miscarriages), but I'm definitely interested.

And who is that woman Gabriel already has tied up? I don't think we know that yet.
