Rosemary’s Baby. And the idea that the coven (and her OB/GYN, who was a member) would let her be walking around NYC four days before her due date was just ridiculous. What if she had gone into labor and delivered in the street or a hospital?
No, I’m sure that Annie is referring to the possibility that, if Rosemary is out and about, had she gone into labor the pressure to get her to a hospital would be pretty overwhelming. Satan’s baby deserves better than that: like every Dark Host he needed to be born in a fancy NY highrise with fawning, high-dollar admirers surrounding him.
Yes, and I did know a woman who woke up in labor, started down the stairs, and dropped the child right there. Even if there is a one in a million chance of that happening, when someone is carrying Satan’s child they would not risk it. IRL, the doctor would have put Rosemary on bed rest for the last month, don’t you think?
I agree with you on Event Horizon, but I thought (and still think) that The Shape of Things has a cool premise and believable characters.
Paul Rudd’s character was never assertive. He had always been pushed around by his Dick of a friend, and now it was just someone else taking that place. He gets all kinds of positive reinforcement for the changes he makes, both from Rachel Weisz and from his friend’s fiancee. And, until way too late, he sees the conflict between Rachel and Dick as one of two strongly willed people, rather than as a direct power struggle over him.
The Tabunga Tree Demon from the movie “From Hell it Came” use to scare us kids. Our older siblings would chase us around the house, threatening to either pinch or tickle us to death.
