If done well this could be awesome! Natalie Portman would be great in a suspiria remake ... (although even the thought of a suspiria remake is disgusting)

Portman in a horror!?!? Im a huge fan but...not sure about this...nice dress!!

No one could top Jessica Harper, but I'd be okay with Natalie.

Catherine Deneuve should play Madame Blanc...

I refuse to believe a "Suspiria" remake is in the works...

In general remakes are a complete waste of time. In this case it makes me want to throw this bloody computer across the room. "Suspiria" is untouchable, it is sacrosanct. This would be an abomination and an insult to any serious fan of the genre.

no it wouldn't milkman. you're stupid. a remake is a remake and it doesn't do anything to the quality of the original. we'll always have the original masterpiece and all these film companies can keep trying to put out a quality remake, whether they pull it off or not. Hollywood is out of original ideas anyway, so remakes are inevitable. i, for one, like Natalie Portman and think she could do a decent job.

I guess they don't have heating at red carpet premieres, in regards to the first picture. Ahahaha.

Is that the best you can do, that I am stupid? I said nothing about disliking Natalie Portman so where the hell did that come from? Also, I thought Green Undertow was a good movie. I could care less if Hollywood is out of ideas, considering most great films of the Horror genre are coming from France and Asia at the moment. To make these remakes seem a waste of time and money that could be much better spent, it's just that Hollywood would not pay directors/writers who want to step outside the fucking box and do something unique and original. If Aja's remake of "Into the Mirror" is his own vision it might have merit. As long as you guys pay money to see this shit they put out there will be no original ideas. I am just stupid and could if a rat's ass whoever thinks so.

Too bad Natalie Portman is a Cunt.

never seen the original but the movie storyline sounds good even if it is being remade. might have to go and check out the original...dont really care for natalie portman as actress.

The only problem I see with any Suspiria remake is the Americanized version will feel it is necessary to explain everything. The beauty of European and Japanese cinema is that sometimes you have no fucking idea why things happen,they just happen! The studios think American audiences need answers to every question, even the ones that haven't been asked. That's why a movie like The Strangers generates such buzz- there's no answers, just unpleasant questions.

Never heard of that director Greenshit, but Natalie would be the perfect, if not the only one to do the lead. Maybe Rob Zombie or George Lucas should direct.

wow, that would be awesome!! maybe a nude scene. lol.

this can't live up to the original - one of the greatest horror films of all time. but to join the remake debate, i don't mind them at all. i can still enjoy Dawn of the Dead while getting cheap thrills from the remake (same with TCM, Hills Have Eyes, The Fly, etc) of course some are crap but lots of films are crap, it doesn't desecrate the original in the slightest.

Eh. Whatever happens, I'm not insanely excited or insanely against it. Whatever.

eh, the thing is about horror remakes is that they're innevitable. So I just try to look at them as unbiased as possible. Theres been a few good ones...okay...maybe a couple...but this one seems it will be a winner. I trust Natalie Portman, I dont know why, but I do, and the fact that Green actually REALLY wanted this, and isnt just a throw on director, makes me think that he'll do a faithful remake. Guy's you just got to look at remakes as "homage" to the originals

.... :(

Actualy, I can name quite a few remakes that blow the originals out of the water. Some of the . . . of the Dead remakes beat the originals, as well as The Hills Have Eyes remake, and The Ring remake. All beat the originals by a long shot. This may be the same.

Another pointless waste of money. Studios fuck around proper horrors like Midnight Meat Train, yet are quick to remake classics and turn them into shite!

I don't give a shit if Audrey Hepburn comes back from the dead to star in this, do not remake this movie!

I'm not what you would call a fan of Portman but I don't have anything against her either, though I'd much rather see her do remakes of bad films and leave Suspiria alone... Maybe she could start with Star Wars I-III...

She has said before she had no interest in being in a horror film. I guess after Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium she wants to make a film that doesn't flop.

"...she eventually discovers that the ballet school is a front for a much more sinister organization: America's Got Talent."

I just don't understand why one would remake what many consider - mtself included - to be a flawless masterpiece of horror. We as fans should be insulted. I wonder if Dario has any say in this? If, and only if , he signed off on it will i stop bitching about it. Then, of course, i would question his sanity. Why stop here, let's also remake Deep Red, Tenebrae, Opera, Phenonmenon and then we can start remaking Bava'a films.

I looked and it seems to be a fairly new production company. I was looking for trends and couldn't find any because I couldn't find any movies produced by Handsome Charlie Films. However, I suspect, in my gut, that this is going to be PG-13 fare...It certainly would be easily done. But we'll see. Just my speculation. New company. Wants to make money. Horror not doing so well. Want to bring in as much money as possible...It could still be well done with the right director and rest of a cast, but we'll have to see.

Fuck!! it all. so sick of hearing about remakes. now there going to remake susperia. it will suck

Finally, a version of suspiria i will like! Just keep the goblin score though,

I got a Suspiria hoodie...now whenever I wear it people will think i'm a fan of the remake...awesome. I think Portman is a pretentious bitch, not as much as Julia Roberts, but pretty damned close.

Portman is a good actress and all (has been since Leon: The Profession) but there was a lot more to the original than the cast. Suspiria was a very personal story and therein a very personal project for Argento and Nicolodi and simply turning it over to the first company to buy the the rights is a mistake (even if they do have Portman signed on). And going from Pineapple Express (a movie about stoners) to this has to be the strangest transition ever for a filmmaker. What made Suspiria so amazing was its visuals and Green is not known for his visuals. When I think of Green and his aesthetic I can't help but think of Undertoe, which was very much the opposite in style of that of Argento. This is either going to be a very different movie from the original or a very pale imitation.

nipples.

If Portman is in it, I will not watch it.

She actually seems like a good choice to fill the role. If they are trying to remake this then I hope they're paying attention to what made the original so great.

I'll admit that Portman is the ideal choice to fill Harper's shoes, and although I adore her, nothing will make me support this remake. Trying to remake Suspiria is like trying to repaint something by Dali.

This whole 'no more remakes' thing is so not cool anymore. Remakes (I prefer retellings) in one form or another have been around since stories were first told. Every generation is entitled to view a story in a way that they relate to. Further more, why wouldn't Hollywood, which contrary to popular knowledge is a business, not squeeze every dollar they can out of a property. I for one am looking forward to this flick.

They should have done it with kids, as Dario originally intended. The idea of those murders happening to children would have been very horrifying. Goblin HAS to do the soundtrack!

I agree completely with mikebrowne. There are a lot of remakes that are MUCH better than their originals, and I'm almost sure this may be one of them. At least I'm sure it'll be far less boring.

I'm not the biggest fan of the original. The best thing about this film is the music and colors. My only problem with it is that it's a little boring. Anyways, I can see Natalie in the role so...good choice!!! This better be good.... and not boring.

I love Natalie Portman. I really hope she doesn't do this movie. It's so unneccessary :(

Terrible idea. Love Natalie, but this is sacred ground.

PLEASE! The original is great. This is so unnecessary.

this is a goddamn travesty. Suspiria is as clost to a PERFECT film as i have ever seen. there is absolutely no reason to remake this AT ALL.

I would hate to see Americans ruin this masterpiece. =(

cj are there any females you do like?? but I totally agree with milkman, whats the point more gore? more story line?? theres nothing you can do to this film to make it any better.

she is a great actress and she's fine as hell

All the anti-remake banter is really pointless, in my opinion. It's not like the remake will ever effect the original in any way shape or form. Sure some of these movies have an extremely special place in our hearts. And many will agree this a movie you don't touch with a 38943298 foot pole. But let Green do what he would like, we all know that nothing will top Argento's film. But it doesn't mean that this film will not be something a lot of us may enjoy.

PLEASE GOD DO NOT LET THIS HAPPEN!

why????? let's make something original

Enough with these fucking remakes. The original Suspiria is one of the all-time classics and nobody can top what Argento made.

Milkman you are a tool. Anyone who supports this inane nonsense is a sheep. Please stay away from the voting booth this November, as well. Note remakes shouldn't be made if the original director or creator says no. Argento has said absolutely no he doesn't want a remake of his film on multiple occasions. This is basically and exercise in using someone else's ideas (porbably terribly) to steal money.

This will be awful for two reasons. One, Natalie Portman. Two, Natalie Portman. On top of that I think it's totally pointless to remake a movie that is so... I don't know, Argento. I'm sure by the time they're done with this it won't even resemble the original. I can't stop throwing up everywhere at the thought of this.

Mmmm....Natalie Portman, I'd love to partake in the sweet nectar again & again & again & again. She's my #1 hottie!!!! She's hotter than the planet Mustafar.....& that's pretty fuckin' hot. "Boy, I bet she gives great helmet"----Spaceballs.

Without Argento its pointless......sorry

but Portman I could see

I don't understand why everyone gets their panties all in a knot about remakes. A remake is just another interpretation and if you don't like it that's fine because you still have the original. Suspiria is an awesome movie, and although I don't think the atmosphere created in the original can be matched, I still think that a remake has great potential, and I look forward to it.

"This creature DOES exist. It's here, it's all around us, we can learn from it. Yet, modern science has turned it's back on it, they don't want to know about it. Now that...that makes me madder than hell"-----Bigfoot: Man or Beast.

Bigfoot in Georgia? First heard about it on Coast to Coast A.M. They're supposed to have a news conference about it today. The pics are interesting, but not sure if they're legit or not. Roger Patterson is laughing it up somewhere in the netherworld of the force. He made the infamous "Film" back in Oct/'67.

oh no! SUSPIRIA is by far the best Argento film out there and to think of Natalie Portman playing Jessica Harpers role sickens me. If she really has been cast in the lead role I will NOT watch the remake. Oh and all remakes suck and NEVER need to be mase if it was a good movie great leave it alone and if it was a bad movie even mor reason to leave it alone. Why Hollywood thinks remakeing movies is a good idea I will never understand, all a remake says is "WE HAVE NO ORIGINAL IDEAS LEFT SO LETS RIP OFF SOME OLD ONES AND SEND THEM OUT WITH PG RATEINGS! SAY NO TO REMAKES and YES TO ORIGINALITY AND NEW IDEAS!!!!!!!!

The only way I will see this movie is if Jessica Harper has a role, or at least a cameo. All these remakes do is prove that the "big" studios,producers, etc are completley dry of new & fresh ideas, and what was once an art is now just mass produced American garbage!!!I really wish that more independent films & film makers would get as much attention & praise as the crap that is spewed out these days!!!
