Rosemary's Baby?? Somebody please explain...
I just recently watched Rosemary's Baby. My interest was piqued by all of the "Top Horror Movie" lists and various forums where people state it is one of the scariest movies of all-time.
In short, it was long, uneventful and boring (in terms of a horror movie). I must say that it was well acted and written, and I certainly thought it was ahead of its time as far as the subject matter. But to list this on ANYTHING because it was scary or disturbing is just beyond me. In my opinion, there was not a single scary point in that movie. Please keep in mind that I am not a fan of gore...so I am not solely judging the movie on the lack of effects, etc. Please list your opinions... |

This was one of the first horror movies that I watched, so I wasnt as desensitized as I am now, but based soley on the fact that you never see the baby makes it very, very creepy.
The devil rape scene is very scary too, but I can see where someone wouldnt think this was a scary movie. Maybe you have to have the right mindset to watch it. |

orangestar,
I know what you mean about not showing the baby, that was kinda creepy (but cool that they kind of flashed it up on the screen real subtly). It probably would've cheesed up the movie if they would have shown some "ghoulie" lookin' thing. But, yeah...I definitely didn't think it was a bad movie, I guess I just had preconceived notions that it was gonna be uber-scary based on what I've read. |

I actually disliked it quite a bit. I was very "wtf, i paid MONEY for this?"
Not all of my dislike stemms from the fact that this is roman polanski's movie, but it didnt help its case any....

I'm buying it tonight, they sell it for cheap at Music World. I don't like it tough. It's not scary and slow paced.
