Rosemary's Baby (Roman Polanski, USA, 1968)

  • The Lord Palmerston 33 Dartmouth Park Hill London, England, NW5 1HU United Kingdom (map)
A claustrophobic horror that taps brilliantly into the uncertainties and queasy potential threats of childbirth.
— Wendy Ide, The Times

Mia Farrow and John Cassavetes star as Rosemary and Guy Woodhouse: newlyweds who move into a swanky New York apartment building (actually the suitably Gothic and ill-fated Dakota). But when Rosemary becomes pregnant she starts to fear that the couple’s peculiar neighbours may have sinister designs on her new baby…. Featuring a wonderful turn from Ruth Gordon (and TPFC favourite Charle Grodin in his feature film debut) this is both one of the defining titles of the 60s and creepiest films ever made.
