Title: My Favorite Horror Movie
Product review: I'm an avid movie buff; but somehow never saw "Rosemary's Baby" until I was in my 30's. I was immediately "sucked in" to the whole weirdness of the film. Ruth Gordon and Sidney Blackmer's strange, if not bizarre attraction to Mia Farrow's Rosemary and John Cassevetes' Guy. Then Guy's sudden interest in the spooky Castavets. The horror is not the bloody kind; but the visceral kind - how you keep learning more and more about what is going on. When Rosemary finally gets out the Scrabble tiles and plays anagrams is when I think I went over the edge. It's amazing the number of people who have never seen this remarkable film. Mia Farrow is perfect as Rosemary, and Cassavetes' performance has just the right amount of subtle betrayal. And who can beat Ruth Gordon for the wacky diminutive Minnie Castavet! A must see film for anyone over 12. So glad to see it on Criterion.
