I'm happy to give your comment its 700th like!

@vestiphobe what? They were talking about a wild fire lmao?

@vestiphobe Wasn't the poster talking about the baby's gender reveal as the devil?

It’s the non-chalant way Roman says it that makes the delivery of the line poignant

@@marciloni12 yes, I agree, and it was one of the worst decisions ever made in the 2014 tv remake with Zoe Saldana, to actually show the baby! We can only imagine what kind of monster 1968 Rosemary eventually accepted as her flesh-and-blood son. Since we get short glimpses of the devil's ugly scaly body and demonic eyes (he actually seems to look a lot like an ork from Peter Jackson's LOTR) during the black mass rape scene, we can imagine that the resulting baby must've inherited at least a few of his father's ugly features. Only a mother could love such a little monster. I blame the crying, lo!! The baby totally sounds like any other newborn who wants to be comforted. And you can almost see how Rosemary's motherly instincts start to kick in - despite the baby's looks. However, the 2014 baby is shown in full detail - and he is actually a gorgeous baby with beautiful bright blue eyes which are striking but not the least bit scary or demonic. If babies fathered by the devil himself look like that, he could start a profitable side business as a sperm donor😄. The decision to actually show a perfectly normal beautiful baby causes the iconic lines "What have you done to his eyes??" - "He has his father's eyes!" to fall totally flat. The end is absolutely anticlimactic in the remake. I wonder what they were thinking! Maybe the underlying idea was to eliminate the supernatural element. The eyes of the baby of the 1968 movie make it pretty clear that in the reality of that particular movie the devil actually exists. However, the remake leaves it open if the devil exists, since all terrible happenings could've been caused solely by the machinations of evil humans. The blue-eyed stranger who apparently fathered the baby could well be just an ordinary man with evil intentions. It would have been much more effective and scary if - like in the original version - the baby's looks had remained a secret. While it's truly astonishing that Mia Farrow's Rosemary ultimately accepted her demonic son, it's not surprising at all that Zoe Saldana's Rosemary decides to love her beautiful baby. After all, there's no reason for her to suspect that the baby was really the son of the devil.

pup lover Yup! Something modern horror films are lacking!

***** True! Good luck getting these ADHD millenials to appreciate movies where you have to think!

Thats why I get more of a scare from the classics and occasional independent films which are not sucked into those new Hollywood formulas.

The Memorgia Original!

The Memorgia ????

chaoticdays Exactly! Movies like this are not only classic to the genre but classics as a whole. A lot of directors knew how to direct a good horror film given the a great cast and screenplay such as this, and The Exorcist, The Omen, and sorta Amityville Horror with Margot Kidder and John Brolin(obviously have been hoaxed AF but still made a creepy ass movie) Anyway, right on for the comment I completely agree with you LoL

Slashers were the beginning of the end. The only ones that were worth a damn were the original Nightmare and MAYBE the first Friday and Texas Chainsaw (haven't seen them so can't offer an opinion). Scream was as well because it was silly and at least tried to kill the vanquish the genre. Hellraiser was actually good from what I remember, but IDK objective quality. The last good horror movie I've seen, chronologically speaking, was the Babadook (hyped, yes, but good nonetheless). The last good American ones were The Ring series and the adaptation to Silent Hill. The latter was directed by a Frenchman who was such a huge fan of the games he wanted to adapt it as soon as the first one came out. After everyone got sick of torture porn and fake found footage after One Missed Called killed J-Horror, it seems like they're going back to (fake, bad) religious horror and zombies. Zombies are definitely partiality due to the Walking Dead, and demons and witches and shit, IDK, maybe just their lack of creativity in general. Or Supernatural (the show), or American Horror Story, or their disturbing fondness for occult and demonic imagery as a whole. Whatever their reasoning, MOST big horror movies nowadays are nothing more than porn, and the really bad kind that leaves wanting to take a shower and watch feel good Disney movies at that. The only good horror left is in the written media, online, or in video game form.

Yeah, a bunch of people shouting "Hail Satan" as they explain that she fave birth to the devil's child is real subtle horror. There were some really bad horror movies from the 60s too, but we remember the good ones. Sure, a lot of modern horror films are bad, but honestly the genre is as good now as its ever been. If you think modern horror movies are all jump scares and CGI, then you need to look harder! There are some amazing horror films being released today, and the genre has learned a lot over the past 50 years.

So true I don't bother watching them they can't hold a candle to these classics

chaoticdays *BAAAABAAAADOOOOOK*

Wow so true!

Life can feel like a dream especially when something traumatizing is happening.

Yes very well put. It was extremely surreal

It lends some credence to the theory that this is all in Rosemary's head, who is going through psychosis because of the pregnancy and miscarriage

In the book, she intends to grab the baby, throw it out the window, and jump out after it. Then she reasons that it's partly human, so she'll bring the issue to the Vatican and let them deal with it. As for herself, she knows she's defeated. Sad really.

+Novin Sadighi That's really well put. After seeing that Rosemary MAY accept the baby, it's the audience left holding the bag. We, the audience, have been betrayed. Great way of putting that!

+Novin Sadighi The *true* horror was when in real life Sharon Tate and her baby were murdered bestially soon after the premiere of this movie - a strange case of life imitates art? Who knows...

TheNightmareReaper Hmm, I'm not sure how you got that ending. In the sequel by Ira Levin, the baby grows into a man of 33 (sound familiar to anyone else?!) and kills off humanity. I don't really consider that 'somewhat good.' But then again, maybe you've got a point and humanity should be killed off!

Dave Glo Jeez! I read the sequel a long time ago and never made the age 33 connection to the death of a certain prominent historical religious figure who shall remain nameless. How could I have missed that?Thank you!!

What instrument makes that noise? It is very creepy

@@tessalette3231 It sounds like a trombone.

I love the way the camera pans around her as she turns to everyone in the room. It helps the viewer feel the same chaos and just as frantic as Rosemary.

@@tessalette3231 that's a creepy Trumpet. ..

The Greek Pianist they did at 2:12

@@nidieunimaitre3638 No, that was the Devil himself. Rosemary was remembering her being raped.

Travis B thanks for correcting me

Travis B yeah, its’s definitely the devil himself, the baby would obviously look.. younger and cutter :)

The Greek Pianist I agree in my opinion if they showed it the scene and the music would have been super fucking Anti climactic and cliche

Dissent That's not only my favorite scene from this movie but it is the only scary scene in this movie. It makes your imagination run with her expression.

I was just thinking that, and the scene where they tell her the baby is dead. They don't make actresses raw like that any more.

+Dissent That, and the creepy music.

+Dissent I love the reaction she gives to seeing the baby. It makes your imagination run wild. You feel her disgust and horror. I don't think she was overacting. This is a very extreme ending and situation. Her acting was perfect for this extreme scene.

This whole scene is great acting, and great cinematogrophy. The music plus "his power is stronger than stronger! His might will last longer than longer!" Truly harrowing

Sadly, now everything is cheap jumpscares

Watch Hereditary, has combined good old creepy horror and good acting with the good effects of modern age.

watch hereditary

Hereditary has good plot and very cool music also.

well my neighbors make those sounds once a week

If producer William Castle (known for his gimmicky "horror movies" of the 50's and 60's like The Tingler, the OG Thirteen Ghosts and House on Haunted Hill) had his way, we would've seen the baby. The director fought tooth and nail against it. Say what you will about the director but he at least made the right call here.

Everyone can imagine it in a different ways, thus way we imagine it in the scariest way possible - differently for every human.

​@@mydloSA or we could imagine it as it's shown at 2:12...

Minnie's personality never changed when the truth was finally revealed. Often, horror films have characters present as more sinister when their true evil is revealed, not with Minnie (Ruth Gordon's character). She remained funny, catty, and nosey from start to end! 🎉

Yeah. That actress who played Minnie was so natural 🖤

All they do is celebrating the birth of their lord and savior. You know, normal behavior. They´re not terrifying, but simply humble observants to the new age. Hail Satan!

@@theheavymetalbrony2257 ok

What does that mean?

+Anna Costello Wisniewski What did she mean by that?

+Starguard ! Apparently, Dubrovnik is a city in Croatia. My guess is it was a reference to her vacation fantasies that she had during the movie. Or when Roman went traveling near the end of the movie. I don't remember where he went, maybe he went to Dubrovnik.

blackhart64 Thanks!

well, Dubrovnik is one of the cities Roman said he traveled to...and I think that's where he said he and Ruth Gordon were going when they left town when Rosemary was ready to give birth. In fact, he was lying about leaving NYC...he'd never miss the birth of the Baby. So I guess she's being ironic--calling him on his lie. It's a funny tension-releaving bit in a very intense scene

It's a different type of scary, more shocking and unsettling.

Rachel Vass Yes, you are the only human to have a particular experience, it is unique to you; you are special.

Quality acting

To me the scariest part was them all chanting "hail satan." For the first time you're shown they actually are satanist, and you're just like fuck...

Yes, very scary moment. But I'd say getting raped by the devil in front of a coven of old folks might rate right up there as very creepy! Also when she's first pregnant and gets very sick - her doctor is a satanist too; any other doctor would've said, uh, honey, you got a beast inside there! No wonder you're feeling under the weather!

+Dave Glo that also explains why she was eating her meat raw, those were unnatural cravings as she had a beast inside of her!

For me the scariest thing is just how inevitable the ending feels. Rosemary really didn’t stand a chance once they decided she should be the mother.

sin8800 everyone has a different perspective and view on how it looks

Not sure how this plays out, but I heard that her recent ex-husband Frank Sinatra, who was furious at her for continuing to work after their marriage (he had the divorce papers served to her on the movie set), used his "influence" in Hollywood to prevent Mia from even being nominated.

This should've been nominated and won best picture

@@jerrygil1965 over Frank Sinatra's dead body

Plus anything with a whiff of horror about it was always treated as a B movie even when it's as well done as this.

Her first movie 🎥 break 21 years old

+Jonathan Hole Ikr. I thought of that too.

Jonathan Hole maybe that's the reason Satan decided to come up from Hell and raped Rosemary.

Monster Master Gojira Mary is really Isis.

The popularity of that beautiful name plummeted abruptly after this movie and never really recovered it's former glory. It is a very pretty female name.

I thought it was interesting that the movie talked about the significance of herbs in Satanic rituals, while rosemary itself is a kind of herb. As if she was specifically grown just like the herbs in her apartment.

The innocent naive human totally fooled and led astray by satans family and her career aspiring husband.

Nah, not really. Saw this movie when I was 13 and thought this scene was hilarious. I know it’s a product of its time, but Mia’s overacting killed it. “Noooooo! It can’t beeeee!”

Exactly

@@HauntFreak13 the movie is scarier than the majority of supernatural horror movies produced today and it also talks about how women are seen by society.

Agreed. In context it’s the scariest scene in the film.

That had me dying.

liza Estevez GET OUT OF MY HOUUUSSSSSSSSE!

no Liza it's from the video that is playing right now wtf lol

YOU BLEW IT UP!!! CURSE YOU ALL TO HELL!!! wait...wrong movie

The ending is one that sticks. Shattering and yet childlike/innocent. Rosemary accepting her fate, raising the spawn of Satan. It is an open end leaving the viewer feeling helpless and alone - as the camera pulls back to a top shot of the Dakota. The bleak realism Polanski employs is inherent in his other feature films "Knife in the Water", "Cul-de-Sac" and "Repulsion" - among others. His characters rarely find peace or redemption.

@@veryeyeofnight If you want truly bleak Polanski watch The Tenant.

@@veryeyeofnight My God dude, give that man a baby already....wait, guess you're not a 13 year old girl.

"Gore" What version of The Exorcist did you watch?

Imagine being nine years old when the movie came out and sister took me to watch it and, irresponsibly enough, the entrance was allowed. I can’t watch horror movies since then.

Carlos Velasquez don't tell me the exorcist didn't make you feel unsettled. I'm 20 and that movie still fucks with me

I totally agree with you

Carlos Velasquez One of the key differences between this film and "The Exorcist" is that "Rosemary's Baby" suggestively toys with the idea of demonic worship, whereas "The Exorcist" is more "in your face" about it, as it deals rather with possession than worship.

It’s also chilling. The music alone tells you how frightening the child is.

It's like the baby is just staring at the ceiling love the imagination factor this movie had

He's busy contemplating what he'll do to the world

That mental image actually makes me laugh.

And the “it” ain’t human

In the book,the baby has feline eyes with slits,claws,tiny horns and a tail.

It is horrifying to think that someone would use you just for your uterus and then not even try and care for the resulting baby.

I agree. Ira Levine wrote both novels and I think that he's a great feminist writer

Actually, terrified to be a MARRIED woman.

He's not ashamed. He is just a coward.

I absolutely love that pivotal scene. You described it perfectly. I always wanted to know what he said, too. Again, the genius of Polanski:, letting our imaginations do the work.

pup lover Thank you for your concurrence!

Poor Rosemary. She really didn’t stand a chance after that. She was the perfect target for the witches. Raised to be as compliant and accommodating as a doormat and all alone in an unfamiliar uncaring city with practically nobody to help her.

I was thinking about that too, and my only thought was that Roman predicted that other actor would go blind, and that was how Guy would know they were for real. It was eerily quiet in that living room. That's why Guy was staring in disbelief. What a selfish *****

@@timebandito4278 Good point. The night probably ended with Guy intrigued but not yet convinced, and he probably left it with Roman that he would believe him and offer up Rosemary as a sacrifice if he indeed got the part, which he ultimately did.

Krzysztof Komeda's film music is indeed the best!

The music is INSANE!

None of which did anything for the movie. Not to mention, that film didn't even have the guts to have the supporting cast chant, HAIL SATAN! Instead it has them chant, Hail Rosemary; quietly I might add. Lame. Skip it. Stick with this, the classic original version. 👍🏻

Yes, at this point, she probably thought that they were nothing more than a bunch of old lunatics dabbling in witchcraft. Notice how she never made any connection to the Devil until they told her, and when she first saw the baby, she of course finally came to the realization that something supernatural had occurred.

@@bobthebear1246 agree Bob I've never had any interest in the new version the original is a horror masterpiece

Amen.

Oh that's cruel. But very funny!

@@wotan10950 no, just cruel

I think it's both kind of funny and creepy, having a seemingly nice old couple so gleefully praising Satan. One of the reasons this movie is so effective is that the Satanists in the film, for the most part, seem like charming and decent people. Minnie and Roman for instance initially come off as friendly, welcoming, and generally normal despite their true nature. That's pretty disturbing when you think of it.

This whole scene is funny. Everything about is off about it. Like a f**ked up dinner party. All the happy old people and even that guy taking pictures. I think it's meant to be that way, making you laugh and cringe simultaneously.

It's hilarious. The older woman in that shot plays Aunt Bee's best friend, Clara, on The Andy Griffith Show. The only thing that would be funnier would be if Aunt Bee herself popped up and screamed "Hail Satan!"

Nathaniel Korb and
