Creepy

I try to go back and watch movies that are considered "classic". Tonight, on HBO, is Rosemary's Baby. I saw it about three years ago. It's crazily creepy. And then I learned this trivia: The movie was directed by Roman Polanski who at the time was married to Sharon Tate. Tate would be murdered one year later by Charles Manson's followers. Stay with me here: The Manson clan called their death spree "Helter Skelter" after the 1968 song by The Beatles. Beatles front man John Lennon would later live in, and be killed in front of, his apartment building called The Dakota - where Rosemary's Baby was filmed.
