In Rosemary’s Baby (1968), Mia Farrow’s iconic Rosemary Woodhouse doesn’t scream, doesn’t slash, doesn’t run through the woods, but make no mistake: she’s a Final Girl. This week, we sink into the psychological horror of isolation, manipulation, and bodily autonomy as Rosemary endures the slow unraveling of her life, her sanity, and her very sense of self. We dig into the real vs. fake witchcraft and Satanism, and how Rosemary’s journey mirrors the real-world experience of so many women whose fears are dismissed until it’s far too late. And we gush over that cute pixie cut she gets halfway through the movie.

Spoiler Warning: This episode contains spoilers for Rosemary’s Baby and one very badass Satanic bassinet.
