Manthast Absolutely amazing

Freaktana A Major Disappointment

Delight Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

juggalohangman-56132 This was terrible and i could only find 2 episodes of it so that means that it sucked more than what i am describing because the internet doesn't even want you to watch it. The original was way better. it was way more suspenseful save yourself the trouble and don't even search for it. There was no need for the rip em up shots they did the deaths could have been better,.ALSO THIS DESCRIPTION "Modern 4 hour mini- series adaptation of the classic novel by Ira Levin focusing on young Rosemary Woodhouse's suspicions that her neighbors may belong to a Satanic cult who are hell bent on getting one thing: the baby she is carrying." makes it sound really good BUT should say this show sucks deal with it.

simoneboipelo John form Texan: I know you live in American and race its a big issue over there, but you need to educate yourself and see people for who they are, and not for the color of their skin. What has Obama been president of America have to do with the casting of Zoe in Rosemary's baby.As for the TV series, Rosemary's baby could have been classy. This version was no where near the original but not so bad either. The ending ruined the movie and the unnecessary use of blood and severed body parts. If you have the time watch it. If you don't you didn't miss anything either.

Yes, the cat is black. This re-imagining of the original rests evidently upon the presumption that there is something to be gained by introducing characters who have no clear connection with the narrative, in addition to larding the product with scenes of gratuitous incoherency and gore. At one level or another, dream-sequence passages of leaps from windows, ad nauseum, detract essentially from the inner core of cinematic verity: We know we are heading down. Otherwise, see the Original. Polanski. Weird. Brilliant. Horrific.

john_p40 Out of respect for Ira Levin's novel and Roman Polanski's film, my wife and I watched this two-part miniseries. On the positive side, I actually liked the Paris setting. (The 1967 novel and '68 film version were set in Manhattan). Because of its medieval history, Paris does seem like it would be more accessible for demonic activity. After that, forget it. We know Polanski is alleged to have been a pedophile, but he certainly knew how to plumb the dark corners of human endeavors in his films and his version of this story is far superior. And then there's the casting. Zoe Saldana is a very good actress - but she's no Mia Farrow. Farrow's frail, waif-like appearance perfectly suited a woman with a satanic pregnancy. And why was it necessary to cast an African-American actress? The director seems to be self-consciously reminding viewers that since Obama is president, the protagonist needs to have her race changed. The actor playing Guy, Rosemary's husband, is dull and vapid. However, Carole Bouquet, playing next door neighbor Margaux, is wonderful - sexy and seductive. Final word: Skip this version. Read the novel and watch the original film.
