Rosemary's Baby is the definitive smart horror film that begs the viewer to really use their brain or what's left of it. It's perfect in nearly every way. Mia Farrow's amazing performance is heart-breaking and distressing to behold and study. While Ruth Gordon is an absolute treat to watch as the nosy old New York neighbor. Roman Polanski knew exactly what he was doing with this beautifully shot film and perfects it with a genuinely icky creep factor that lines the heart of the story.
With it's twisted sense of humor, amazing build up of dread and sense of paranoia waiting around every corner, Rosemary's Baby deserves the attention and acclaim it constantly receives.

Nice one. I hope the last '60s movie you have planned is Psycho, otherwise I'll have to tackle it. ;)
5 creepy hall closets from me as well.
The 'Secret Ceremony' film I covered a while back had Mia, and came out the same year as Rosemary's; she did as good a job, if not better, in it. Mia owned 1968.
