Filed under: Horror , Casting , Mystery & Suspense , RumorMonger , Remakes and Sequels Well, since it seems that the very few out there who still respect what I have to say about movies, and horror movies in particular, either didn't read or didn't mind my mild admission that I only like Stanley Kubrick's The Shining , I feel a little bolder about bringing another piece of quasi-blasphemy to light: at this time last year, I hadn't seen Dario Argento 's treasured Suspiria , and when I eventually did, I was distinctly underwhelmed. Perhaps it was too dated, perhaps I was too jaded, but I was relegated to sitting back and just plain 'respecting' another classic of the genre. That makes me no more oblivious to the fact that it's sacred enough that a remake announcement is cause for cringing. Making matters a little less cringe-inducing, though (in my opinion), is Bloody Disgusting's confirmation that Natalie Portman is to star in the 2010 incarnation . She's smart, she's sexy... in short, this Oscar nominee could wander curiously around the halls of my eerie ballet academy any day. However, I still find the reports that David Gordon Green is attached to direct a little hard to swallow; I'm still coping with the fact that he directed the very funny and relatively mainstream Pineapple Express . Maybe a why-not stance would be most fitting at the moment. Suspiria remake? Portman starring? What do you think? Permalink | Email this | Comme ... |
