Journey into a witchy and quintessentially 60s nightmare: occult cinema at its very best. Rosemary's Baby is a psychological thriller that dabbles in the demonic, starring Mia Farrow in a role that won praise for her portrayal as the titular Rosemary.
Set in Manhattan, Rosemary's Baby is a stylish and darkly comic exploration of an expectant mother's grave fears around the unusual occupants in her apartment building. Witness this classic tale of ritual and paranoia as NFSA close out their Season of the Witch miniseries!
'This is horror rooted not in misty Carpathian castles, but in recognisable modern life, with the satanists depicted not as outlandish fiends but the sort of everyday folk you might encounter on any urban street' - Anne Billson, The Guardian
Presented on a 35mm film print from the NFSA collection.
Arc Cinema presents a series of irreverent Friday night filmic feasts, curated and hosted by drag artist and culture warrior Venus Mantrap.
Cult Classics with Venus Mantrap plumbs the archives to showcase cinema with bite: films that unnerve, push buttons, ask questions and just look good on the big screen! Gather your tribe of misfits and rowdy rebels and join Venus for edgy movies, fan favourites and hidden gems.
Includes a pre-screening introduction and live performance by Venus Mantrap.
