Rosemary’s Baby (1968)

In Roman Polanski’s first American film, adapted from Ira Levin’s horror bestseller, a young wife comes to believe that her offspring is not of this world. Rosemary Woodhouse (Mia Farrow) has just moved into their new apartment in the city with her husband (John Cassavetes) when she finds out the joyous news that she’s to be a mother. However that joy soon turns sour, as she starts feeling a lot of pain with her pregnancy, and receives help and medicine from her rather creepy neighbours. Needless to say after Rosemary eventually gives birth, she feels somewhat detached from her child, as it’s revealed that her neighbours were Satanists all along, willing the arrival of their master in their own world. If anything this film gives a very good argument for not trusting your neighbours… especially when with child!
