Product: Rosemary's Baby (El Bebe de Rosemary) [ NON-USA FORMAT, NTSC, Reg.4 Import - Latin America ] (1968)
Rating: 5.0
One of the scariest movies I've ever seen.
It is the every day situations and dialogue that set you up for the shock of Rosemary's Baby. This movie is based on the book by Ira Levin, who told his story is straightforward, unadorned prose, which greatly contributes to one's acceptance of the chain of events. Is Rosemary really being threatened by unimaginable evil, or is it all in her head? Roman Polanski's film is a perfect adaptation of the book. You are drawn inexorably into Rosemary's point of view. Polanski's direction is compelling, as the ordinary becomes the monstrous, and we learn the truth about Rosemary's baby. After the shock, there is an aftershock, and you may never again feel you can trust in appearances.
