Horrifying and darkly comic, Rosemary’s Baby was Roman Polanski’s Hollywood debut.  This wildly entertaining nightmare, faithfully adapted from Ira Levin’s best seller, stars a revelatory Mia Farrow as a young mother-to-be who grows increasingly suspicious that her overfriendly elderly neighbors (played by Sidney Blackmer and an Oscar-winning Ruth Gordon) and self-involved husband (John Cassavetes) are hatching a satanic plot against her and her baby.  In the decades of occult cinema that Polanski’s ungodly masterpiece has spawned, it has never been outdone for sheer psychological terror.

“One of the finest horror films ever made.” – Stephen Whitty, Newark Star-Ledger

“…stands alongside The Graduate as one of the paradigm shifts in how Hollywood thought about the 60’s sexual revolution; it’s a dark, wicked, ingenious work decades ahead of its time….” – Eddie Harrison, film-authority.com

“Its menacing atmosphere and disturbing psychology are unforgettable.” – Jane Freebury, The Canberra Times (Australia)

“The movie is a masterpiece of editing (by Sam O’Steen and Bob Wyman) and the acting is flawlessly delivered by a brilliant, tour-de-force cast.” – Michael Calleri, Niagara Gazette

“Builds tension with masterful patience and detail, not because it relies entirely on the payoff of its devilish finale, but because Roman Polanski wants to submerge the viewer in paranoia.” – Brian Eggert, Deep Focus Review

“Pure psychological horror at its best, elegant in a way that’s rarely seen now, as the anticipation of what’s to come and the walls of security and certainty begin to fall around Rosemary.” – Kristy Strouse, Wonderfully Weird and Horrifying
