Horror classic, huh... sure

Rating: 1/10 (7 October 2006)

After reading countless write-ups on the so-called horror classic, "Rosemary's Baby," I was prepared to spend my evening sitting on the very edge of the sofa, and coming 'this close' to soiling myself several times.
However, it was not to be.
What I was faced with was an incredibly dull film. It plods along like a lame dinosaur until it reaches the finale, at which time it adopts the posture all dinosaurs now exhibit - it simply keels over dead. That's it - no thrills, no chills - and to be honest, the acting just wasn't that good.
I suppose if I tried to look at it from the mother's perspective, it might have been more frightening... trouble is, the premise of the film is so unbelievable as to be laughable.
I'm just saying that I'm glad I wasn't the one who paid to rent the films this weekend...
