Despite cries of “heresy!” when it was first announced, much of the concern over Luca Guadagnino’s remake of the Dario Argento horror classic Suspiria was washed away with the reveal of the first trailer, which – for many – turned trepidation into anticipation.
As we count down to the film’s release this December, actress Chloe Grace Moretz has fuelled this anticipation further with her comments at the Provincetown Film Festival, with a rather bold proclamation that the film “is the closest to modern Stanley Kubrick I‘ve ever seen.”
“This is a really big statement, but this is the closest to modern Stanley Kubrick I‘ve ever seen,” said Moretz. “You’re put into a world, which I can only describe it as being like The Shining in a lot of ways, where you’re just encompassed in a filmmaker’s brain and you’re just implanted in there, and there’s nothing like it that you will ever see.”
The actress was reluctant to give anything about the movie away, but went on to add that: “Here’s the thing, it’s so secretive that it’s super locked down. It’s secretive and I want it to be secretive because you guys are gonna be so shocked. It is WILD. It’s crazy. I can say this, I speak German mainly in the movie. So you won’t recognize me very well. I seem like a different person and I sound like a different person.”
