re: Rosemary's Baby

Isn't the move based off a Stephen King book. I have never watched the movie, but I have heard of it.

Quoting ♥mommy of Lorelai:“ Isn't the move based off a Stephen King book. I have never watched the movie, but I have heard of it.”

No, the book was written by Ira Levinson. I actually found a first edition copy at a yard sale. I got it for like 25 cents! Score!

It is a great movie, and I definitely want to read the book. Books are always better than movies.

And the creepiest part is at the end where they all are yelling "Hail Satan!" and she's saying something like, "Oh God..." and then Roman says "God is dead! Satan is alive!" ah.. creepy.

isn't roman ploanski and the chick who is preggo in the movie the ones that the manson family killed?

Quoting She is finally here!!:“ isn't roman ploanski and the chick who is preggo in the movie the ones that the manson family killed?”

No, that was Sharon Tate. Roman is still alive and directing.

Hmm that is weird...for some reason I always thought it was Stephen King. haha

Same style of writing. The book Rosemary's Baby is really great.  

Quoting Rubygirl214:“ Same style of writing. The book Rosemary's Baby is really great.  ”

That is probably why. I will have to look for the book and read it  

I love that style of writing though - horror. I have read 14 of Stephen King's books. I still own two that I haven't read yet...I need to start up again.

You can get it used really cheap! I buy a lot of used books on there, and have never been disappointed.

Quoting ~ BTM ~:“ I know EXACTLY how you feel! I saw that movie once and HATED it.....lol The same thing with The Hand ... [snip!] ... For the LONGEST time that is why I did NOT want a male doctor!!!!! HAHAHA But I have TWO male ob/gyn and they are AMAZING!!!!!”

ooh i hated that movie.

Quoting Lilly and Linkin's Mommy:“ ooh i hated that movie.”

It comes on allll the time now, and I will watch it if NOTHING else is on, but it DRIVES ME CRAZY everytime I watch it......lol

Quoting acissej.:“ Has anyone else ever seen this? I just watched this movie about 3 minutes ago. It was made in 1968. It's ... [snip!] ... to have Satan's baby. Anyway, I had never thought about it before I got pregnant and now it just gives me the heebie jeebies.”

I watched that movie when I was pregnant too  
I kinda hated it but thought it was to ridiculous to be scary

Quoting Rubygirl214:“ No, that was Sharon Tate. Roman is still alive and directing.”

ah ha i see..i remembered her name last night after i got off of here..but they do mention him in the book helter skelter so that's why i was thinking that...

Quoting snugglymama:“ Wow do I feel old! Of course I've seen Rosemary's Baby! It's a classic horror film! I never knew someone who hadn't heard of it before. I really am getting old.... sigh.....”

LOL!... Don't think of it as getting old... just a little more seasoned. I got ya by a year... so you're not that bad. lol! I do remember that movie though... and so many more... lol!
