Rosemary's Baby
This genuinely rattled me. I’d expected cults and devilish twists—but hadn’t realised just how quietly insidious it all is. It’s not the horror of blood or demons that got to me, but the slow, steady erosion of control. Every smile feels like a trap, every act of kindness like a setup.
What struck me most was how isolated she becomes—not through violence, but through niceness. Mia Farrow is phenomenal, all sharp cheekbones and growing unease. You want to shout at the screen as everyone around her—especially her husband—treats her like a child in her own life.
It’s a horror film, yes, but also a razor-sharp portrait of what it’s like to be disbelieved, dismissed, and domesticated. The fear creeps in like a draught you can’t quite place. By the time it all comes together, I wasn’t shocked—I was furious. And that, I think, is the point.

Mini Review: This rattled me more than expected. The horror isn’t blood or demons—it’s control, eroded bit by bit. Every smile feels like a trap, every kindness a setup. What chilled me most was her isolation—not by violence, but by niceness. Mia Farrow is brilliant, her unease growing as she’s treated like a child in her own life. It’s a horror film, yes, but also a portrait of being dismissed and disbelieved. By the end, I wasn’t shocked—I was furious. Which feels entirely the point.
