Roman Polanski’s Rosemary’s Baby (1968) didn’t just invent occult horror: it cursed Hollywood itself. A young couple moves into New York’s Dakota building, only to find their new neighbors are part of an ancient Satanic conspiracy. What begins as domestic paranoia becomes a slow descent into psychological terror and a film that redefined horror forever.

 

Richard Lewis, MonteCristo, and Thorin open the Four Play: Occult Horror Arc with the movie that birthed the genre, discussing Polanski’s eerie direction, Mia Farrow’s haunting performance, and how Rosemary’s Baby set the stage for everything from Hereditary to Suspiria.
