Horror Cinema: Apartment 7A
When I started watching Apartment 7A, I did not know that it was related to Rosemary’s Baby. As I recognized the names of the secondary characters and was introduced to Dianne Wiest’s loving tribute to Ruth Gordon, I was charmed straight through to the end.
The main character was refreshing as the protagonist in contrast to Rosemary. She was a career girl, and the stakes she had in being groomed for the Mother of the Anti-Christ were intriguing because she was making her decisions for herself. Julia Garner did a great job of portraying a sympathetic version of her character.
Overall, a great addition to Rosemary’s Baby!

Rebel
by Gustave Doré, 1866
(https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Paradise_Lost_37.jpg)“Satan, now in prospect of Eden, and nigh the place where he must now attempt the bold enterprise which he undertook alone against God and Man, falls into many doubts with himself, and many passions, fear, envy, and despair; but at length confirms himself in evil, journeys on to Paradise whose outward prospect and situation is described; overleaps the bounds; sits in the shape of a cormorant on the tree of life, as highest in the garden, to look about him. The garden described; Satan’s first sight of Adam and Eve; his wonder at their excellent form and happy state, but with resolution to work their fall; overhears their discourse, thence gathers that the tree of knowledge was forbidden them to eat of, under penalty of death; and thereon intends to found his temptation by seducing them to transgress: then leaves them a while to know further of their state by some other means.” – Book IV, Paradise Lost, John Milton, 1674, based on text from 1817 London edition
