In this episode of Poltergeists and Pixie Dust, Kelly and Laura dive into the creepy, cult-classic world of Rosemary’s Baby. We debate the big question: Would you have moved into the Bramford? Spoiler alert—one we totally would have. From the apartment’s unsettling neighbors to the absolute dumpster fire that is Rosemary’s husband, we rage about controlling men and the societal structures that made life in the 1960s a horror story in itself.

We also dig into the film’s feminist undertones (and overtones), unpacking how Rosemary’s struggles are amplified by the lack of rights and autonomy afforded to women in a pre-Roe v. Wade world. How much agency did she really have—and how much were her choices stolen from her by the men around her?

To lighten the mood (and help you sleep tonight), we end with not one, but two Disney movie pairings designed to balance out the nightmare fuel. Tune in to find out which wholesome films we think can banish even the creepiest of cult vibes!
