Rosemary's Baby

The stunning background score, witty horrific image and the nail-biting tense surrounding that is offered in here is easy to give one the anticipated chills and goosebumps that stays with one throughout the course of it. Roman Polanski's smart adaptation with perfect editing is something to explore in it as it demands attention from the first frame. His work on execution too, is appreciative if not completely justified considering the potential of the script. On performance, Mia Farrow grows on you as it ages on screen but unfortunately isn't supported well enough except for Ruth Gordon's stellar performance. Rosemary's Baby is a smart take on its genre, for it may go into places where one has been before but still doesn't use the clichéd formula like appalling creatures or hide and seek show or a typical altered ego.… Expand

Again Polanski and his greatness. So sick directing, so sick story, and sick acting. Great movie to watch when you want to be paranoid.

This film is probably one of the most notorious andRoman Polanski is a classic and his long career has consecrated him as one of the most influential directors of the twentieth century, although I don't have any sympathy for him as a person. This film is probably one of the most notorious and acclaimed of his career, and rightly so. When it debuted, in the late sixties, it was scary and I fully understand why. More than other horror movies so far, it used the permanent tension to keep the audience in absolute discomfort, not to mention that danger around a baby is something that touches the emotional side of anyone. It's something innate. The story takes place in an apartment building and revolves around Rosemary, a young woman who impregnates after having had a mysterious nightmare, when something possessed her sexually. Finally, other revelations, and the attitudes of a couple of elderly seemingly loving neighbors, convince her that she expects a son of the Devil, the Antichrist himself. Terrifying, is not? With such a good script it was easy to succeed, especially when Polanski so cleverly uses visual and sound effects as well as cinematography, misty and dense. Everything was thoughtfully designed to make us tense. Rape scenes are worthy of anthology. Today, by themselves, they don't scare us, horror movies have been so full of gore and blood that these scenes have lost their strength, but if we embed them in the film, they contribute a lot to our discomfort. Mia Farrow was at the highest level during the film, perhaps the most controversial of her career, since neither her husband supported her. Sidney Blackmer and Ruth Gordon glared at the Castevets, the movie's villains. John Cassavetes is more restrained but does very well with his role. At present, this movie may not scare you as much as it scared you in the past, everything has its expiration date, but it remains one of the great classics of horror and must have a place on the shelf of any lover of this movie genre.… Expand

Haunting, this film created mass paranoia in conspiracy and the occult. A brilliantly written and executed look into the secret and bizarre.

Despite the fact that director Roman Polanski is a very problematic figure, his artistic talent as a director cannot be denied. Polanski is one of the best movie directors of all time, and Rosemary's Baby is the apex of his work.

For thoseDespite the fact that director Roman Polanski is a very problematic figure, his artistic talent as a director cannot be denied. Polanski is one of the best movie directors of all time, and Rosemary's Baby is the apex of his work.

For those interested in the art of filmmaking and visual storytelling, there is no better example to learn from.

In addition to being an artistic milestone, Rosemary's Baby also is one of the finest horror and psychological thriller movies to this day. It brilliantly illustrates that jump scares or gore -- of which it contains almost none -- have nothing to do with true horror and are not at all necessary to make a movie scary.… Expand

Sinopsis:

Un matrimonio se instala en un apartamento de Nueva York sin sospechar que sus vecinos pertenecen a una secta satánica. Cuando Rosemary queda embarazada, se aísla poco a poco y la verdad sobre su bebé es revelada después de tenerlo.

Opinión:

Una indiscutible obra maestra del horror psicológico que ha influenciado el cine moderno hasta nuestros días, está muy bien actuada, muy buena puesta en escena, buena dirección, atmósfera siniestra y eventualmente retorcida cocinada a fuego lento, un verdadero clásico.

A great thriller / chiller / horror that stands the test of time. Great cast and location, Mia Farrow gives a great nuanced performance.
