Wendy Ide The Times (UK) ... A claustrophobic horror that taps brilliantly into the uncertainties and queasy potential threats of childbirth. Jul 28, 2023 Full Review Judith Crist New York Magazine/Vulture The fault ultimately is in the Polanski screenplay which overlooks character for effect, disastrously. Involvement is absent; all is surface and it is a smooth one, without the shimmer of the evil that is within. Oct 1, 2019 Full Review Kathleen Carroll New York Daily News Right to its bitter end, there is no escaping "Rosemary's Baby." On film Ira Levin's best selling novel is as horribly frightening as it was on paper. Jun 11, 2015 Full Review Fico Cangiano CineXpress Podcast A masterpiece in slow-burn, paranoia and tension. One of the best psychological horror films ever. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4.5/5 Mar 28, 2025 Full Review Preston Barta Denton Record-Chronicle 'Rosemary’s Baby' [is a] masterful portrayal of slow-burn horror, skillfully intertwining terror with thought-provoking social commentary. Oct 25, 2024 Full Review Josh Larsen LarsenOnFilm ... a harrowing parable about the abuse, neglect, and silencing of women. Rated: 3.5/4 Sep 28, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/08/25 Full Review Black C ดีมากๆแต่ยังไม่สุด แต่เกือบสุดละ ดีมากๆ Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/15/25 Full Review Stephen C A successful horror movie in 2 hours and 17 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/09/25 Full Review Chief B It's a bit too long. And not because of that because all my favorite movies are long. It easily could've been trimmed down if they just did not focus too much on certain parts of the movie. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/07/25 Full Review Read all reviews
