“This is how horror films need to be made. Aside from The House of the Devil (a beautiful throwback to this period of the genre) there arenu0026#39;t any films that can so perfectly create this kind of a chilling atmosphere that keeps your skin tingling from start to finish. From the haunting echo of Mia Farrowu0026#39;s voice eerily leading us in, Rosemaryu0026#39;s Baby immediately absorbs you into itu0026#39;s world and never lets you out. Thatu0026#39;s the perfect word for this; absorbing. Roman Polanski is one of cinemau0026#39;s finest directors and what makes him stand as such is how perfectly he can create an atmosphere. Even in his few failures he crafts a unique and full atmosphere that is expertly made for the film heu0026#39;s creating. Heu0026#39;s one of the few directors who always know what heu0026#39;s doing and always creates a complete vision that never wavers. Thatu0026#39;s on display in spades in Rosemaryu0026#39;s Baby, a film that drives mystery, supernatural paranoia and the fears of any pregnant woman into the heart of the viewer. With the help of a revelatory performance in terror from Farrow, Polanski creates a truly perfect film.”
