What kind of a bastard would allow his wife to be raped and impregnated

cult mentality, he was just weak and greedy enough to fall for it

I wish they didn't reveal the devil at the end. Would've been a much better ending if the viewer never found out if the neighbours were cultists.

The reason why I liked 'The Tenant' more than Rosemary's Baby is because the ending was ambiguous.

is it really more ambiguous? it feels pretty safe to say at least 80% of the murder-plot is all in his head. Rosemary's Baby is a far better film imo

SATAN is his father, not Guy! He came up from Hell and begat a son of mortal woman.

Notice the pills she puts away, though. It's possible Rosemary goes psychotic from not taking her medication, and imagines it all. The story is told from her perspective, and she's an unreliable narrator. The flashbacks to her childhood show that she has some trauma and vivid hallucinations/dream even before moving into the apartment.

>Is this one of the most despicable villains ever depicted on screen?
Yes. What the husband does is for me one of the true horrors of this film. The conspiracy theories about that building are pretty good too but that's another story.

Does this look like Guy? Guy was a schmuck; he couldn't even look his wife in the eye after letting himself become a cuckold to Satan.

He got dem movie roles though.

>Is this one of the most despicable villains ever depicted on screen? The subtleness of it all makes it even more sick.
Yes. It's amazing, really. I truly hated him.

No, not at all, as then we wouldn't have seen Rosemary finally breaking down and cradling her devil-child. That's easily the best scene of the film, both tragic and horrifying.

WRONG. the point of the film is that you're questioning whether Rosemary is an unreliable narrator throughout until the ending where the worse possible situation is the truth. It is a great play on audience expectations and shocked me more than an ambiguous "was it all in her head????XD" ending that so many films feign for to add false depth / rewatchability and vagueness to a film they dont have the answers to.

Carefully constructed narrative with solid intentions > airey fairey blank canvas "make your own mind up" bullshit
