Summary: Boring and stupid!
Review: Oh my god! This movie was so pathetic. I rented it hoping it would be good like I had heard. But no! What I saw was the most stupid and boring movie! The acting was good and so was the story, but the movie sucked, STAY FAR, FAR AWAY!

Review: Rosemary's baby is a horror classic that should not be missed. Mia Farrow and the rest of the cast is outstanding in this tale of broken trust and Santanic eroticism.This film will be loved by anyone who isn't pregnant.

Summary: The best horror movie ever....
Review: Rosemary's Baby is the best movie ever made. I have seen this movie over 10 times, and it is never a dissapointment. Overall, the movie is very well done, and extremely scary. The story is so realistic that you get the feeling that it could truly happen in real life. The New York City/Gothic background just adds to this realism. The acting by Mia Farrow and others is excellent.

Summary: Excellent modern day horror film
Review: Realistic 1960's horror film filled with great performances by an ensemble cast. I felt this was one of Roman Polanski's best directed films. Well written script leaves the viewer wondering until the final few minutes whether or not the central character is truly a victim or simply paranoid. Dialogue closely follows Ira Levin's novel. Unfortunately, younger viewers used to special effects or gore may be put off or bored by the lack of both. Horror and tension is created instead with dialogue and the viewer's imagination.

Summary: This is a classic??
Review: I had heard this was one of the best horror movies of all time, but my experience was that it was one of the most ridiculous and worst movies I had ever seen. I'd steer clear of this lemon. Ugh!

Summary: This is, in my opinion, the best horror film ever.
Review: It's true that some people do not get this movie. Those who were raised on the "Jason" movies, and other such movies, are going to be inclined to find this movie utterly uninteresting. The reason is that while most modern horror films such as the "Jason" flicks rely on gore and people popping out of closets, Roman Polanski's classic movie, "Rosemary's Baby," relys, in essence, on innate maternal paranoia. Polanski slowly (but masterfully, I assure you) builds a sinister, haunting, but not obvious tone. What I mean by that is this. The movie feels real. It was made in the late '60s, sure, so us younger folk won't be able to relate quite as much, but the movie is authentic. The characters don't feel like they're reciting a book of poetry they read earlier in the evening. Rosemary (played awesomely by Mia Farrow) and Guy Woodhouse seem just like an ordinary couple in the early stages of their relationship. The two love-birds happen to be planning to have a baby. And that kid is, essentially, what stirs up so much darned creepiness. From the sympathy we all want to feel for Rosemary (and as an extension, of course, her kid) to those primal, eternally disturbing words at the end of the movie by Rosemary relating to the child's eyes. At first we want to find out that we have simply been led on, and there is absolutely nothing wrong. And then we want to think that Rosemary has simply gone insane. That's what we want. That's what we hope. But (and perhaps not) it seems we don't get what we hope for. The dreaded happens, and we will never forget it. This movie is horrific in the best sense. If you're a fan of horror flicks (or film in general) watch this movie, please. This is, in my opinion, the best horror film ever. It's better, dare I say it, than a certain other classic horror movie. (You know which one I'm talking about.) And that's saying quite a bit. Hail, Polanski!

Summary: ROMAN AND MIA`S BEST
Review: With all-star-performances from Mia, Ruth Gordon, Sidney Blackmer and John Cassavetes, Polish-director Roman Polanski offers his BEST film.... The seduction-scenes with the Devil - and Rosemary`s nightmares were based on LSD-trips and discussions between Roman and his wife, Sharon Tate. Sharon can be seen briefly in the "making of" and supposedly as an extra when Rosemary is having a party. The film is still disturbing and watchable. Rosemary`s humming is indeed by Mia Farrow.

Summary: THE Horror Classic
Review: "Rosemary's Baby" is truly the horror masterpiece of the 20th Century. Its stars are : 1. The gorgeous young Mia Farrow radiating innocence and purity. 2. The Dakota--a delightful old buildig just as splendid as it is menacing. 3. Ruth Gordon as a charming but evil old witch. What unfolds is part Hitchcockian suspense thriller (who are my strange new neigbors and what are they trying to do to me?), part Fruedian metaphor (guilt, fear of sex, strange dreams), part parable for the advancing decay of civilization (the demonic baby is the harbinger of a new dark age). Polanski was a genius to get such a scary effect with virtually no violence and no special effects. It has a great old fashined style of acting(very suited to Farrow with her very formal acting background and old Hollywood family--lots of conversations, dinners, etc. This movie could have been made in the 40s if there had been the right people. All you need is great writers, actors, and a great director (and the Dakota, or a similar gothic building). But alas, such quality is usually what's missing in the movie business. Showy effects and high budgets seem to crawl out from every rock in Hollywood. Get a copy of this jewel as soon as possible.

Summary: rosemary's baby
Review: this is where it all started in my opinion. Everything was done to perfection. The big bonus for me was the music. It never fails, the horror scoring in the 60's, and 70's when done correctly [mind you] sends shivers done my spine. I can only image what the presentation would be like in drive inn's. If you are politically correct about horror elements, you just might like this movie. I adore it, and believe it would be a timeless classic to all horror fans.
