Forty is also the perfect age for a due celebration, observed by Cinevox and AMS Records with the creation of an unmissable commemorative boxset, available in two versions, a standard and a limited hand-numbered one produced in only 150 copies.a faithful reproductions of the original soundtrack in LP format (with 'gimmick' insert, identical to the first 1977 edition) and MC;
Both versions contain:
- a faithful reproductions of the original soundtrack in LP format (with 'gimmick' insert, identical to the first 1977 edition) and MC;
- a 10-inch LP with rare and unpublished tracks on clear red vinyl;
- a CD + DVD set: the CD contains the original soundtrack with bonus tracks, while the DVD carries a documentary with interviews with Dario Argento and Goblin;
- two 64-page books, in Italian and English language, with detailed analysis of "Suspiria" film and soundtrack, written by Fabio Capuzzo, one of the leading experts in the 'goblinian' and cinematographic matter around.
In addition, the limited 'peacock version' contains:
- a foam interior exclusive design with a carved "Suspiria" logo;
- a certificate of authenticity;
- an exclusive handcrafted 'peacock feather stiletto', reproducing an object handled by the protagonist Suzy in the final scenes of the movie!

5 minutes later he had my answer:
a box with the faithful reproduction of the original LP and cassette, an EP 10” with unpublished tracks, a book with the story of the movie written by me, various gadgets including the reproduction of the peacock feather used by the protagonist to kill the witch. I also told him that I had hundreds of photos in my archives.
Cinevox, who was planning to only release the soundtrack on CD with attached a DVD including interviews with Goblin and Argento, embraced the project.
So I provided a first selection of photos, over a hundred images of lobby cards and posters from around the world that Cinevox intended to include in the DVD.
They gave me December to write the book. In twenty days the first draft of the book was ready. They asked me to make a few cuts because it was a bit too long. At the beginning of January the book was ready, I provided a text completely in Italian: vintage reviews of the film in French, Spanish and English were present in the first draft. Only in September they showed me the pdf of the books in Italian and in English. Incredibly both texts still had parts in Spanish, French and English so I translated by myself this sections and I made the necessary corrections to the main translation.
Regrets: very few of the pictures that I had selected were included in the book, they decided not to use almost all the about seventy very rare photos taken on the set of the film. Also Cinevox did not want to include any additional unreleased music from their archives, like the preliminary score and all the film versions.
Anyway, a luxurious box for Goblin and Argento’s fans.
