Review of Rosemary's Baby (1968) by Matthew P — 17 Jan 2013

An indisputable classic that influenced countless other flicks, Rosemary's Baby is a master of blending seamlessy horrific imagery with dark humor and the power of suggestion. Boosted by amazing performances from the cast, this is the mother of all modern Psychological Horror movies and rightfully so.

Even today it feels fresh and relevant, despite it's lengthy running time and at times derivative scenes, but to be frank, there's a reason for them to be included. Never felt anything out of place and it always had a dark meaning behind it, thanks to a very smart script and adaptation from the book, written byt Polanski and Ira Levin.
