description

Probably the most scary soundtrack Goblin has ever written (don't listen at it when the lights are down!), apparently it seems that the score was composed before the film was ready, so that director Dario Argento had to make some changes to the movie script, in order to have the music perfectly suited!!

This legendary soundtrack combines elements of music and sound scary effects going far beyond traditional background scoring, becoming an integral part of the film.
As critics say nowadays, SUSPIRIA music "is so perfectly integrated into the film, fares less well as a stand-alone item.
All that pounding, howling, thumbing, and wheezing is enough to send chills down your spine even without the movie images (it is the perfect imaginary soundtrack), but not all of it could be called a pleasant listening experience (unless your idea of pleasant is having your nerves set on edge)."

The original Suspiria vinyl record album featured two sleeves.
When removed from the outer sleeve, the inner sleeve unfolded to reveal a pop-up of Dario Argento's initials, decorated with the demonic Goblin logo and the dead ballerina poster art from SUSPIRIA.
The inner sleeve featured a black-and-white photo of Argento working with Goblin in the recording studio, plus several color photos from the film, including behind the scenes images of Argento on set.

This reissue features the same pop-up system, although inverted:
this time the outer sleeve will reveal its astounding secret as it was intended in the original project! So this one is even better than the original.

 
story

The film that has become the master work in Italian horror maestro Dario Argento's canon, Deep Red holds up brilliantly despite the plethora of copycat slasher films it inspired in the years to follow.
The film opens with a flashback murder shown from the perspective of a child while an eerie nursery rhyme plays.
Cut to the present, pianist Marc Daly (David Hemmings) witnesses the murder of a psychic while chatting with his drunken pal, Carlo (Gabriele Lavia).
While the police investigate, Marc joins forces with attractive reporter Gianna (Daria Nicolodi).
Once Marc realizes that he is a target for the killer, he seeks help from Giordani (Glauco Mauri), a professor of the paranormal, who soon becomes one of the killer's victims.
Marc's research leads him to an abandoned house where he discovers a secret room that hides a corpse.
Before he can call the cops, he is knocked out and awakens to find the place in flames while Gianna holds him.
Racing to the neighbors to call for help, Marc discovers an important clue that leads him to a nearby school where he finally finds the killer's identity.
The madman attacks him, but the police arrive to save Marc.
Though the case appears to be solved, Marc comes to the disturbing realization that one piece of the puzzle remains.
