Guardate cosa è successo al figlio di Rosemary

I saw this long ago and wanna see it again!I need to find a video.Anyway,this movie was a hoot!Ruth Gordon worshipping the devil again and plotting domination or something.Another terrible Patty Duke TV movie that works for me.

I'm a big fan of "Rosemary's Baby", so when I found out there was a sequel, I was ecstatic... until I actually saw it. I have heard people who read Ira Levin's sequel "Son of Rosemary" say that Levin could not have possibly come up with a worse follow-up story to his original; these people have obviously not seen this film. The fact that the movie refers to the coven as "the tribe" is all-telling. (A "tribe" of witches? Please!) The "tribe" eventually abandons Adrian as their Antichrist in favor of Adrian's son. (Why would the grandson of Satan make a better Antichrist than the son of Satan?) Even Ruth Gordon, whose brilliant performance in "Rosemary's Baby" won her an Oscar, is too old and senile in this film to be interesting. Put this on your must-skip list.

Sam O'Steen, the film editor on the superlative suspense flick "Rosemary's Baby" from 1968, here directs a quickie TV-made sequel, one in which Rosemary Woodhouse (Patty Duke Astin, in for Mia Farrow) is shunted off early--and inexplicably--presumably to help flesh out the more ghoulish aspects of this flaccid story about Satan's son on Earth. Most interesting is the return of Ruth Gordon to her Oscar-winning role as Minnie Castevet (with Ray Milland well-cast as her husband, Roman), but she isn't given much to do--and looks terribly uncomfortable at being involved anyway. This script is strictly low-rent goods, and must have shamed original author Ira Levin (who went on to write his own sequel). Fairly dim and pallid, with poor photography and no suspense or scares whatsoever.

This film is a bad film but to gain any nutritional value from it I recommend watching it back to back with Rosemary's Baby.

There is a lot to learn seeing how different directors can draw different performances from the same actors playing the same characters. Observe Minnie Castevet (Ruth Gordon) and the fine work she did in the first film vs the awful rendition in this film.

It is also interesting to see how the same characters were played by different actors. Which leads me to wonder if anyone involved with the sequel were aware of the first film and did any of them watch Rosemary's Baby before making this?

If your interest in films is purely superficial then you would best avoid this one. I have a lot more to say about this film but I really don't want to go there.

I usually seek to find good in movies, even the bad ones.Unfortunately this movie is one where I fail miserably-and the fact that there's barely one positive review on this board shows many IMDb reviewers share my pain.

I don't usually watch sequels but I just had to see this since I love "Rosemary's Baby" so much. What a mistake that was. It simply reaffirms my belief in the fact that most sequels are lousy-though thankfully, very few are as bad as this. In fact in my mind this isn't even really a sequel, it's a satire on how bad a sequel can be. Movie recommended very highly for not viewing-at any time-ever.
