Gothic Gold

Rating: 9/10 (20 May 1999)

This is Gothic Horror at it's best. The fact that as a viewer you never see any thing actually horrifying is what makes this such a scary film. Mia Farrow puts forth her best performance by far. Then there is of course Ruth Gordon who delivers one of the greatest performances ever by an actress on the big screen. From her first scene right up to her last (check out how she uses her finger to try and remove the knife mark from the floor). Rosemary has no allies on her side except the viewer and there is nothing we can do to help her. Roman Polanski's greatest achievement.
