If you haven't seen Rosemary's Baby (1968) yet, you are missing one of the most beautiful yet haunting experiences you'll ever get in life. it'd probably hold second or third positions in my list of favorite horror films. Rosemary's Baby works because of: 1. Mia Farrow: this has got to be some masterful acting. When she felt a pain in her stomach, I felt it too. Her transformation from an independent and strong woman to a helpless weakling is done beautifully. The haircut is one of the best things that was done to further this weakness. Plus her acting is so real, so unlike the typical 60's acting style. She wasn't a dumb character, she knew her surroundings well. She knew something was up. Her confusion and fear was needed. 2. The rest of the cast: Ruth Gordon, and the actor who played Mia's husband (can't remember his name, John something) were breathtaking. How well they play their characters! Even at the end when you may expect a slight shift in their character, they don't. And it is all the more beautiful. 3. The story: the story of a mysterious pregnancy is fresh and frightening, and I'm getting tired of explaining this stuff so I'm just gonna list them out now. 4. The masterful direction 5. The colors 6. The script 7. The storytelling 8. The ending. A brilliantly executed Horror film that is easily one of the the most unsettling films ever made. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
