And each of them is about children.
Legendary horror is more than just a bedtime story.
The filming process of such works requires a lot of labor and is always accompanied by risks, sometimes even fatal.
It’s not enough to make a horror film, you still have to experience it, and these five films prove that point.
“Rosemary’s Baby”, 1968
Roman Polanski’s creations are not only considered the greatest, but also cursed. All because of a terrible series of deaths.
Composer Krzysztof Komeda reprised Hutch’s tragic fate, producer William Castle went to the hospital after receiving threats from viewers, and Sharon Tate, who died at the hands of cult members, auditioned repeatedly for the role of Rosemary.
“The Exorcist”, 1973
The number of “cursed” incidents on the set of this film numbered dozens: fires, injuries, broken bones.
Even worse is the number of crew deaths: Jack McGowran, Vasiliki Maliaros, Linda Blair’s grandfather, Max von Sydow’s brother, the night watchman and even the assistant’s newborn child died during and after filming.
“The Omen”, 1976
“If the devil’s greatest weapon is invisible, and you’re going to take it away, he’s not going to want that to happen,” the idea’s creator told the producer.
As a result, the planes carrying the actor and screenwriter were struck by lightning, the trainer was eaten alive by a lion, and a colleague of the special effects specialist who devised the beheading scene was decapitated in a car crash.
“Poltergeist”, 1982
Ghosts from the plot seemed to haunt the actors in reality.
How else can we explain the displaced paintings in Jobette Williams’ apartment, the near death by robot Oliver Robbins, and the sense of presence Zelda Rubinstein spoke of…
“The Summoning”, 2013
James Vann’s horror has grown into a successful franchise, but it seems the creators have become too mystical.
Vera Farmiga said that during the filming process, she kept waking up at the “witching hour” (between 3 and 4 a.m.), finding claw marks on her computer and later discovering strange bruises on her body.
