Rosemary's Baby

Directed by Roman Polanski2h 18m1968

A young couple, Rosemary and Guy, moves into an infamous New York apartment building, known by frightening legends and mysterious events, with the purpose of starting a family.

Our read: Rosemary's Baby (1968) reads as a heavy, measured, inventive horror entry — measured in intensity, mid-stakes in scope, cold in temperature, nihilistic in outlook.
