Mia Farrow’s performance In Rosemary’s Baby is unforgettable. It provided a lot of inspiration for Immaculate, and you just have to have this on your list. Most of my genre favorites have incredible performances from the actors. And many actors, for whatever reason, don’t look at horror films as performance pieces, so it’s not always as deep or interesting when you don’t see these actors making very distinct and challenging choices.
I love all of these films; you have Jamie Lee Curtis, Jack Nicholson, Toni Collette, Jodie Foster, all these incredible actors doing this genre of film that is so beautiful and elevated, but horrifying at the same time.
Immaculate is in theaters March 22. For more with Sydney Sweeney, check out our SXSW red carpet interview.
