The Tanz Dance Academy is open again!

Perhaps the happiest of movie news you will read today!

Fresh off an historic theatrical tour and following a sold-out run of limited edition steelbooks, Synapse Films is finally bringing the widely celebrated 4K restoration of Dario Argento’s beloved and extremely influential SUSPIRIA to the masses and I couldn’t be happier. This highly anticipated release boasts a host of new special features in addition to the eye-popping new transfer of the film that will allow fans to truly see the film the way it was always intended.

Jessica Harper (PENNIES FROM HEAVEN) stars in this horrific tale of a young student who uncovers dark and horrific secrets within the walls of a famous German dance academy. What spirals out from that simple premise is one of the most powerful and hallucinatory nightmares ever captured on celluloid!

Dario Argento’s SUSPIRIA comes to home video from Synapse Films in an exclusive new 4K restoration from the original uncut, uncensored 35mm Italian camera negative with the original 4.0 English surround sound mix, for the first time EVER! Painstakingly restored over the past three years, Synapse Films has created the ultimate special edition of this horror classic with the supervision and approval of the film’s Director of Photography, Luciano Tovoli. Available in three editions, including a feature packed Two-Disc, Special Edition Blu-Ray with brand-new reversible cover art by Joel Robinson, a single disc Blu-ray edition, and a DVD.
