One of the greatest movies ever. No matter what Roman Polanski has done wrong in life....it can not be denied that he is a visual genius and one of the greatest directors ever;

Great film, I love how Polanski didnt show the audience the baby's face. We catch a mental glimpse from Rosemary's sight of him, but an unseen psychological scene like that is a great mechanism. William Fraker's cinematography gives the "secret" hallway a nice "gateway to Hell" tone. The paintings in that hallway were weird and eerie.

Even though the movie was great - When I try to watch this video all I can picture when Polanski talks is him anally raping that 13 year old girl. Kinda wrecks it for me.

Rosemary's Baby is based on truth- Hollywood was then and is now filled with child-abusing, Satan-worshipers. Sharon Tate wanted out of the Satanic Cult and she was chosen as the next sacrifice--look into it.

At one point, I related very heavily to rosemary's baby. I was born with dark hair over the hands, back, etc., clubbed fingers and have lived a very strange life. I'm 21 now and am working on a short story entitled child of rosemary.

LOVE this film. I cannot see it enough times!!! :) I have seen it about ... oh, 50 times already and each time I see it, something else reveals itself about the film, the background, the script, the gaffes (lol), etc.

@onlythreelittlepigs Well according to the psychiatric evaluation while he was doing his time, it states crystal clearly that he is medically certified to be completely normal. Polanski plead guilty to Unlawful Intercourse, there's a big difference. Also on the medical examination of the girl, it showed no trace of penetration let alone forceful penetration. I've seen the reports the whole case against him was a clusterfuck from day one.

Well, if you had an Aunt like Minnie, I hope you kept a close eye on her lol!

I don't know why, but I've always imagined the Rosemary character as played by Mary Tyler Moore (don't laugh please). Even today, when I re-read the novel, that's who I see, even after having seen the movie countless times and loving it with Mia Farrow. I don't know (we'll never know) what Moore could've done with that part, but I would've like to have seen her interpretation. No one in 1967-68 probably would even have considered her for it, but I think it would have been fascinating.

ROMAN POLANSKI IS A PEDOPHILE! nO QUESTION ABOUT IT!

Sandy Dennis could have replaced Mia Farrow.

They both have the save voice.

It's ALL about the voice.

Repulsion & Rosemary's Baby were remarkable psychological horror films. Polanski started off wonderfully in his career! It's interesting how you can connect both Repulsion and Rosemary's Baby by the theme of isolation, apartment living & fragile women in trouble. The Vampire Killers was a piece of garbage though. Anyways, I'm glad they had Polanski directing, not William Castle who would have made it cheap & campy, not darkly disturbing & psychological as with Polanski's signature theme.
