The Mother of Horror Movies!


The Forerunner of Satanic Movies!

Talk about the pioneering efforts in the Satanic cult genre, then it has to be Rosemary's Baby! It may not have the excitement, thrills and spills of and The ExorcistThe Omen but it held well on its own.

Mia Farrow was topless in this Roman Polanski effort and it must be a great event to see her as such since she was already famous from Peyton Place and do not have to do this.

Briefly, the movie centres around a couple who came to live in an apartment and unbeknownst to them, it happens to be a coven for witches and warlocks. Slowly they got the the couple by feeding Rosemary with all kinds of stuff and one night she dreamt she was inseminated by Satan.

The movie ended with the birth of the Satanic baby and we are left to our own devices to think out the ending. Will Rosemary kill off the baby or will she become a convert as well, just like her husband? Slow but watchable fare by today's standards.
