Suspria Gets Restored, Remake To Start Filming in 2010… 0

Clip from 1977’s Suspiria. NSFW or if you’re alone…

For me, the clip above is the most frightening scene from Suspiria. You will never look at barbed wire the same way again. If you’ve never seen Suspiria, this clip is what hipsters refer to as a “spoiler”.

Somewhere within my list of top ten stab-fests is the 1977 mind-fucker Suspiria,  directed by one of the living masters of the genre, Dario Argento. Later this month a newly restored technicolor version of the film (that screened in New York in August) will be released.

Generally, the words “remake” would send a round of killer-outside-my-window inspired chills down my spine. This is not the case when it comes to the planned update to Suspiria. David Gordon Green (Pineapple Express) is set to direct the film which will begin filming in 2010.

RIP: Buzzy of Buzzy’s Roast Beef… 0

The good old days. Buzzy’s Fabulous Roast Beef. For Freddy Pants.

Alan Kaufman, or Buzzy to pretty much everyone in Boston, passed away late last month at the age of 72 in Florida. When I was growing up in Boston, there were pretty much three places we ate. Buzzy’s Roast Beef, Kelly’s or Mike’s Pizza in Davis Square. Buzzy’s was an iconic Boston landmark and late night, 1,500 calorie, drunk snack stop. Buzzy’s was demolished in 2002 to make way for Mass General Hospital expansion.

Rest in peace Buzzy. Even though I haven’t had the pleasure of you’re food clogging my arteries for the last 20 years, I’ll still miss you.

Thanks!: Big Mattress.
