Complete dreck. But the best product placement ever - at some point, I forget where, the commercial was for a pregnancy test! I kid you not.

This version was so plodding and obvious, and unnecessarily gruesome. But the ending was the worst. No spoilers - it isn't even worth the effort.

Spoiler shmoiler - the baby wasn't scary looking. And I had to chuckle when Rosemary became so French looking at the end.

No tension, no imagination. Makes me understand the genius of Roman Polanski's version, and his absolute devotion to the story as told in the book.

Just finished watching it on demand

It is a mixed bag. It cannot hold a candle to the original. Taken on its own without the comparison, it is basically mindless fluff. There is more gore than the original . In addition, there are a number of differences. None of the differences help it

Saldona is not bad but Farrow was better. No match for Cassavetes. Head & shoulders over the TV version actor. No idea why they set it in Paris other than they figured people might have turned in for that aspect. The original movie ending was far superior. They mention witches and the ending has nothing to do with witches.

See it without comparing it to the Polanski version and it is an interesting potboiler. It will make no one forget the Polanski version was far superior in every way.

Just watched the second part out of curiosity. Wow! Way to f up a great story! Absolutely no psychological terror at all. Seeing the baby at the end made it the biggest "I wasted two hours of my life" moment.
This is the bastard child of 666 Park Ave and Damien.
