EP. 43 Halloween / Rosemary's Baby

from Burn After Watching · host Borderlnd

In this episode Dan and Alex explore two classic horror films to close the Spooktober month! First, we’ll step into the quiet suburban streets of Haddonfield, Illinois, in John Carpenter’s Halloween, where a silent, masked killer returns to destroy the innocence of a teenage babysitter and her friends. Then we’ll move into the cramped and ornate New York apartment building of Rosemary’s Baby (1968), where Mia Farrow’s Rosemary slowly realises that the people she trusts—and the space she inhabits—are conspiring to betray her, to take control of her body and her baby.
