''Rosemary's Baby'' (1968); a made-for-TV sequel ''Look What's Happened to Rosemary's Baby'' (1976) exists, as does a bland remake, ''Rosemary's Baby'' (2014)<br />
<br />
==Summary==<br />
<!-- <br />
(Short, Spoiler-Free Summary; tag-line or elevator pitch.)<br />
--><br />
<br />
"Pray for ''Rosemary's baby''!" A young couple move into an apartment, only to be surrounded by peculiar neighbors and occurrences. When the wife becomes mysteriously pregnant, paranoia over the safety of her unborn child begins to control her life. <br />
<br />
==Details==<br />
<!--<br />
This list of details is partly intended for those films produced by<br />
film-makers, performers, producers/studios, etc. that tend to make<br />
"Lovecraftian" films, for ease of finding related or similar films.<br />
This list is also partly intended to make it easier to identify a<br />
specific film out of many with the same name, to make them easier to<br />
tell apart - some stories have been adapted numerous times by different<br />
amateur short film makers! Some films have a "TVTropes" page, which<br />
will often detail obscure "Lovecraftian" elements of a film that this<br />
wiki misses, and, if a TVTropes page exists, it can be a useful<br />
resource. Feel free to remove any sections that are irrelevant, <br />
unknown, or unnecessary.<br />

==Ratings==<br />
===[http://www.mpaa.org/film-ratings/ MPAA Ratings]===<br />
<!--<br />
I've been including this information for those of us who like to watch<br />
Lovecraft movies with family, including younger children, and want to<br />
avoid any awkwardness.<br />
E.G., "Rated: R (Violence, Nudity, Language....)" <br />
--><br />
* Rated: R (Violence, Adult Content, Nudity, Sexual Situations, Profanity)<br />
<br />
===Tentacle Ratings===<br />
<!--<br />
(Use one of the following lines, and edit it as appropriate. Follow it with an<br />
explanation/description of how it qualifies as "Lovecraftian", such as any<br />
name-dropping of Lovecraft's creations, whether it's based on a Lovecraft story<br />
and if so which one, whether it's simply "feels" kind of Lovecraftian, etc.)<br />
Some examples: one tentacle only if the mood and atmosphere are right but it's <br />
not based on a Lovecraft story and contains no specific Lovecraftian elements even<br />
in spirit; one tentacle only if it mentions specifically Lovecraftian elements but<br />
isn't based on Lovecraft story and doesn't have the right mood; one tentacle only <br />
if it has some tentacle monsters but the mood isn't very Lovecraftian and specific<br />
Lovecraft creations aren't mentioned by name; if the film is based on a recognizable<br />
Lovecraft story it automatically gets two tentacles, and may get a third or more<br />
depending on if Lovecraftian monsters are present, the mood and atmosphere are<br />
suitably Lovecraftian in tone, and if the work is particularly accurate and true to<br />
the spirit of the original story.<br />
* S____ (One Tentacle: Debateably Lovecraftian; has almost no direct connection to Lovecraft's work)<br />
* SS___ (Two Tentacles: Barely Lovecraftian; vaguely similar in tone, could be a very loose adaptation)<br />
* SSS__ (Three Tentacles: Lovecraftian, was probably written by Lovecraft himself.)<br />
* SSSS_ (Four Tentacles: Unusually Lovecraftian; written by Lovecraft, a remarkably faithful adaptation)<br />
* SSSSS (Five Tentacles: definitively Lovecraftian; everything you'd expect from a Lovecraft adaptation and more)<br />
--><br />
A rough [[Tentacle Ratings|measure]] of how "Lovecraftian" the work is:<br />
* Ss___ (Two Tentacles: Barely Lovecraftian; vaguely similar in tone)<br />
<br />
The nominal religious horror overtones to the story might be hard for purists to handle, but the basic story isn't very far off of Lovecraft's work - simply substitute a fish-man, ghoul, or "white ape" for the devil, then tone down a couple virtually throw-away lines about the Roman Catholic church, and you've got an indisputably "Lovecraftian" horror story about a weird secret cult, miscegenation with monsters, paranoia against the multicultural population of New York, etc.<br />
<br />
''Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of <br />
how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.''<br />
<br />
===Reviews===<br />

(Should be an objective, unbiased, detailed synopsis of film's plot and themes.<br />
The following optional spoiler code apparently works badly on smart phones.) <br />

--><br />
{{spoiler|<br />
A young couple move into an apartment, only to be surrounded by peculiar neighbors and occurrences. When the wife becomes mysteriously pregnant, paranoia over the safety of her unborn child begins to control her life, until she learns that her husband and neighbors are members of a satanic cult that drugged her so she could be raped by the devil and bear the antichrist in exchange for her husband getting a part in a play.<br />

==Notes==<br />
<br />
===Comments, Trivia, Dedication===<br />
<!-- <br />
(Optional; describe anything known or reported by experts about the <br />
origin of the story or inspiration for elements of it; list dedication, <br />
trivia, images, anything else of note <br />
--><br />
<br />
<br />
===Associated Mythos Elements===<br />
<!--<br />
(A list of notable Lovecraftian creatures, tomes, Great Old Ones, characters, <br />
etc. that appear in the film/show/etc. It helps to specify if it just takes<br />
the form of general "name-dropping" (someone mentions "Yog-Sothoth!", but <br />
Yog-Sothoth doesn't actually appear; a random creepy tome in the background<br />
is labeled ''Necronomicon'' but never actually appears, a character is wearing<br />
a Miskatonic University sweatshirt but the school never makes an appearance...)<br />
Remove any sections that do not apply. Note that some unnamed monsters may be<br />
considered "stand-ins" that are effectively the same as specific Lovecraftian<br />
monsters, though the film never makes that explicitly clear - for example, a<br />
standard-issue Gill-Man from "Creature from the Black Lagoon" might be labeled<br />
a "Deep One" for the purposes of this Wiki, even though any resemblance is<br />
probably unintentional. Vaguely/generically "Lovecraftian" elements might <br />
include [[Human Cultist]]s, [[Tentacle Monster]]s, ''[[Necronomicon Ex-Mortis]]'',<br />
and the mysterious outer/astral dimension we might call the [[Other Side]]....)<br />

===Keeper Notes===<br />
<!-- <br />
(Optional. Notes to Keepers on using this for film for scenario ideas. <br />
Heresies and Controversies: this is also a good place to include non-canon <br />
and controversial aspects of the film's mythos. Suggested Alternative Theories <br />
include: Derleth's elemental scheme; pseudo-science interpretation; "fanon" <br />
interpretations; unofficial humorous or eccentric versions; identification with <br />
"Real Life" mythological, religious, folklore, natural, and historical phenomena; <br />
rumor and speculation contribute some flexibility and ambiguity to the mythos. <br />
* Alternative_theory. ([[source]]) <br />
This section is more commonly used on YSDC Wiki pages for suggesting ways to<br />
adapt the film to use as a Call of Cthulhu scenario; the Keeper Notes section <br />
might include multiple such suggested adaptations.<br />
* (One/two sentence story inspired by the film, starring investigators.)<br />
TIP: Film plots are often difficult to adapt into RPG scenarios; try having<br />
the investigators arrive after the events from the movie have started happening<br />
or have already happened to NPCs, and leave the investigators to piece together<br />
the clues to find out what happened. Adaptations of film plots to RPG scenarios <br />
almost always benefit from changing cosmetic details around until the exact story<br />
is no longer easily recognizable, by changing the setting, descriptions of monsters,<br />
character names, and that sort of thing.<br />
--><br />
* Rosemary Woodhouse-Pickman enlists the help of investigators because she is in fear for her life: she believes that her husband and neighbors are members of a cult that want to sacrifice her baby to [insert random Lovecraftian "deity" here]! What she doesn't know, but will soon discover, is that the cult don't want to hurt the baby, and ''the baby's father is actually The Tentacle Monster!''<br />

(Add any of the following categories that apply to the end of the page; <br />
the first (DEFAULTSORT) is used to sort the film by something other than <br />
a leading The/A/An so that it alphabetizes correctly. A "Short" is <br />
less than an hour long (perhaps an episode of a TV anthology program, music<br />
video, or short-subject amateur film); "Film" is a longer feature-length movie<br />
(longer than an hour), "Series_or_Serial" may include TV programs, serials, <br />
and mini-series; "Franchise" is a series of Films, perhaps including feature-<br />
length Films, Short films, TV Series/Serials/Programs, and other media.)<br />
