‎‘Rosemary's Baby’ review by Thomas • Letterboxd

Rosemary's Baby 1968

★★★★½

Rewatched Oct 10, 2024

Oh yeah, the granddaddy of “elevated horror” still packs a punch. What an impactful slice of atmospheric slow-burn psychological terror and creepy occultism as well as one of the greatest cinematic depictions of anxiety, paranoia, and helplessness. What could be more terrifying than having your trust exploited, your sanity questioned, your sense of safety eroded, and your agency systematically stolen? Ok, giving birth to the spawn of Satan is pretty unpleasant as well, I imagine. Long story short, “Rosemary´s Baby” simply is one of the most brilliantly written, directed, and acted horror films of all time.
