Horror News: Sequel to Rosemary's Baby coming this year!

The year is 1965 and a conspiracy is going on to give birth to the Antichrist. 

Yes, a prequel to the classic psychological horror movie is here. Titled APARTMENT 7A, the movie’ s plot was initially kept under wraps. It wasn’t until a year later that it was reported that the movie was supposed to serve as a prequel to ROSEMARY’S BABY. 

Rosemary’s Baby was a 1968 Horror movie based off on Ira Levin’s novel of the same name. 

The story was about a couple, Guy and Rosemary, moving into an apartment building. Shortly after, Rosemary gets to know her neighbors, especially the Castevets who are an elderly couple. They have taken in an addict called Terry who soon after meeting Rosemary, dies due to an apparent suicide. 

Rosemary soons finds the Castevets interfering a little too much in her personal affairs but Guy is more than welcoming towards them. 

Some time later, Rosemary discovers she is pregnant and that is when all hell breaks loose. The Castevets and Guy insist she see a different doctor and Rosemary suffers side effects like losing weight and having a gaunt appearance. 

When she eventually gives birth, she is told her baby was stillborn. But Rosemary finds that her breastmilk is still there and that she can hear a newborn’s cries. 

She then learns that the closet which was blocked by the previous tenant was used as a secret entrance for the neighbors to get inside the apartment. She uses it to enter the Castevet’s apartment and finds them and her husband around a baby. 

Rosemary is horrified to discover that the baby is hers and that it is the antichrist. 

But Rosemary quickly recovers from her shock and decides to help in raising the baby. 

The movie was a hit but its popularity grew over the years and it is now regarded as a classic horror movie that many horror fans consider to be a well-made chilling movie. 

Over the years, there were sequels and remakes but none of them was well-received by the critics. 

And now, finally, we have a prequel to the movie. 

While most of the details are under wraps, there are rumors that Julia Garner, who is the protagonist, plays a dancer who after being injured, goes to live in the Bramford apartment building. She will apparently go to live with the Castavets. 

Earlier there was speculation that Julia Garner may be playing the role of Terry and the story would be about her experiences living at the building. 

But Terry, from the books, was a drug addict who got cleaned thanks to the Castavets’ help. 

The movie has no release date set yet but has an anticipated release date around Halloween 2024.
