Suspiria, co-authored by director Dario Argento and his collaborator Daria Nicolodi, is a dark crimson European nightmare that interlaces dance and tales of witchcraft. The film revolves around Suzy, an American dance student brought to a renowned dance school in Germany as a boarding student. Suzy's journey unfolds into a series of terrifying events. Suspiria stands as a pivotal work in the horror genre, famed for its iconic tagline: "If there's anything more terrifying than the last 12 minutes of this film, it's the first 80 minutes." With its timeless soundtrack by Goblin, remarkable cinematography by Luciana Tovoli, and the alleged autobiographical undertones from Nicolodi's life, Suspiria remains a true embodiment of its reputation.

In 1998 Ben Jakober and Yannick Vu collaborated on an obvious remake of Marcel Duchamp’s Roue de Bicyclette, his first “readymade” object. Duchamp combined a bicycle wheel, a fork and a stool to create a machine which served no purpose, subverting accepted norms of art.
