I. Loved. Rosemary's Baby. 10/10 one of the best horror films I have ever seen.

It may be becuase all of the horror is centered around birth, pregnancy, and gaslight, but this is the first horror film where I was genuinely uncomfortable and squirming in my seat from the opening musical bars to the end of the film.

I watched this movie in 3 settings and it didn't change the tension at all. Full on sick feeling of dread for the entire runtime.

What's more, is I love that the pregnancy horror is about how much Rosemary wants her baby. So many times in horror films, pregnancy is about the unwanted or being forced into it--and while those are valid horror topics, it's so unique to have Rosemary be scared for her kid.

It adds a level of Mama Bear to her character which is just icing on the cake.

While I loved it, I definitely need to  be in the right mindset if I want to watch it again. Ha ha ha.

 It's fun when you can pinpoint the moment in a fanfic that you lost most of your readers. LOL.

When chapters go from 10 to 12 comments per chapter and then plummet to 4 to 5 and then down to 1, it's pretty clear where you lost them. Heh.

I'm trying not to let it bother me, because I'd still go that direction with the story if I did it all over again, but it still sucks to lose half your readers. XD
