Not at all scary, but an interesting story nonetheless.

As creepy as this film is, it still left me wishing I could have afforded an apartment in New York in the 1960s - they sure don't make apartments like that anymore!

Mia Farrow gives, I think, the greatest performance in horror film history.

Gaslight melodrama in its darkest form: by dealing with "the american dream" the homme fatale lets the body (and also baby) snatcher neighbours in. Rosemary couldn't resist to fall asleep, so it was only a matter of time before she realized she's alrealy "one of them." The male protagonist - the love-religion's "deus ex machina" - is missing: Sleeping Beauty has to wait for a Redeemer in public life: Neo from Matrix.

No matter how many times I watch this film, I always feel incredibly anxious for Rosemary's well-being. Like Crawlspace, this film screams, "don't trust your neighbors". And it's shot stunningly.

A very creepy movie and still manages to deal with some large universal themes. Expertly directed and acted. One of the most naturally evolving films of all time. Sadly, this one may represent a lost art.

While Repulsion's female protagonist is isolated by mental illness, Rosemary's breakdown is CAUSED by the isolation of repression, both social and psychological, external and self-generated. Paranoia and tension here stem from male characters' attitudes towards women and pregnancy, ensuring the girl is constantly among family and friends yet forever alone in her plight, save for the child she struggles to protect.

Entertainment of the highest order. An inventive and effective film that exudes paranoia and fear as the film unfolds in the most efficient and exciting of ways. Polanski gives us a most subjective experience of mother to be Rosemary with some of the most effective direction and camera techniques. The films real charm however is its wicked humour and self awareness, perfectly balanced with the horror.

Had me increasingly on edge the further it went along.

A work of such calculated staging, we sometimes empathize with Rosemary's feelings of manipulation due to Polanski's deep, masterful hold on his audience.

This has got to be the best horror film ever. Have watched this film many times. Mia Farrow's 'Rosemary' is absolutely delicious. She is so innocent and gullable. The Castevets are really weird and John Cassavetes (Guy) is an absolute stonker of a cad. Really spooky and atmospheric and I really love the 60's wallpaper and Rosemary's kitchen!!! Ooh, also, the 'chocolate mouse' scene.

Just watched this last night, and really all I can say is wow. I would definitely recommend watching this alone, because I got chills multiple times thanks to the alienating aura that Polanski so artfully expresses with his vivid colors and cinematography.

Somehow, Rosemary's Baby feels like Hitchcock...

Brilliant, controlled direction. Polanski wrings suspense out of everything: the great sets, lighting, sounds, and of course pacing. A real master craftsman and an artist as well. http://filmcapsule.wordpress.com/2011/01/15/rosemarys_baby/
