Collider reports that The Sitter’s David Gordon Green is on board to direct a remake of Dario Argento’s most successful film, Suspiria. The 1977 Italian horror film is about an American dance student who transfers to an academy in Germany, only to discover that it’s dominated by witchcraft.
Director David Gordon Green doesn’t seem like a prime candidate for a horror film, especially since his name is widely associated with comedies like Your Highness and The Sitter – but what most people don’t know is he has as much experience making hard-hitting dramas like All the Real Girls and Snow Angels; and with 2004’s Undertow, he isn’t exactly a stranger to horror films either.
Be sure and check back for more updates. Until then, watch the trailer for the original Suspiria.
