The Devil Next Door
The truly frightening thing about "Rosemary's Baby" is that the satanic cultists are just the normal folks living next door. The very ordinariness of their evil is much more terrifying than "The Exorcist". This film is packed with excellent performances from Mia Farrow, as the manipulated anti-madonna, to John Cassavetes as the ambitious husband who sees nothing wrong with trading the use of his wife's womb for success. Check out Ruth Gordan, Sidney Blackmer, Ralph Bellamy, Maurice Evans and Charles Grodin. They just don't make films like this any more. This is the best of Roman Polanski and author Ira Levin. And, watch for a cute cameo appearance by producer/horrormeister William Castle. Highly Recommended!
