      marie m Still scary after all these years. Mia Farrow's acting was superb!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/03/22 Full Review Nick M A timeless horror. Mia Farrow questions her reality whilst making you question your own. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/27/24 Full Review Alec C This new birth introduces us to horror that we never realized was possible! The Woodhouse's move to a new apartment complex to have a child, only for the wife to suspect that their new neighbors are hiding something quite sinister. Drawing on paranoia and the occult, this iconic film manages to keep us in awe and suspense until the bitter end! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/02/24 Full Review Jeff M While I wouldn't necessarily consider it one of the scariest movies I've ever seen, it is definitely eerie and involving, masterfully directed by Polanski. Viewers with short attention spans may be irked by the expository nature of the film, but I absolutely appreciate a filmmaker who is willing to take his/her time to slowly build the suspense. Obviously things that may have seemed shocking 50 years ago don't seem quite so frightful from a 2019 point of view, but I was definitely engrossed in the drama. And if ever a horror movie relied on the brilliance of its leading lady, this is the one. Farrow is riveting and downright harrowing in the leading role, and it's a travesty she wasn't even Oscar nominated. She bares a striking resemblance to Gwyneth Paltrow in this role. Gordon actually won the Supporting Actress Academy Award that year, but I'm afraid I found her performance over the top and slightly abrasive. But this is top notch movie making but a master director, and this is a movie I can see myself revisiting because of the sheer bravado of the filmmaking and for Farrow's performance. What an underrated actress! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/24 Full Review Daniel B Whenever I think of the best horror. Rosemary's Baby always comes to mind, from its suspension and its cinematography. Its a classic that performs every aspect to the highest possible quality. There's been few horror movies that have captured the sense of emotion seen in Rosemary's Baby. Its a movie that benefits from multiple rewatches with its deep themes expressed throughout its runtime. Its truly a masterpiece of cinema and one of the best horror movies of our time. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/30/24 Full Review Ricardo M Had not seen this movie until today 2023. I completely thought she was crazy until right before the ending. I fell right into it as if it was written yesterday. So good, so fresh. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/05/24 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Wendy Ide Times (UK) ... A claustrophobic horror that taps brilliantly into the uncertainties and queasy potential threats of childbirth. Jul 28, 2023 Full Review Judith Crist New York Magazine/Vulture The fault ultimately is in the Polanski screenplay which overlooks character for effect, disastrously. Involvement is absent; all is surface and it is a smooth one, without the shimmer of the evil that is within. Oct 1, 2019 Full Review Kathleen Carroll New York Daily News Right to its bitter end, there is no escaping "Rosemary's Baby." On film Ira Levin's best selling novel is as horribly frightening as it was on paper. Jun 11, 2015 Full Review Bianca Garner The Movie Buff The success of the film lies in the performances of Mia Farrow, as Rosemary, and Ruth Gordon, as Mrs. Castevet... Nov 10, 2023 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy This box office hit emerged as one of the best chillers of its decade, and it still serves as a touchstone of the modern horror film. Rated: 3.5/4 Oct 28, 2023 Full Review Bill Chambers Film Freak Central Krzysztof Komeda's score sounds lush enough, and the track delivers all those muffled, half-heard conversations with an uncanny dislocation despite the absence of stereo imaging. Rated: 4/4 Oct 27, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
