Which one is the best according you you people? I am yet to see The Tenant but I love both Rosemary's Baby and Repulsion. Actually, I gave Repulsion a 9/10 and Rosemary's Baby a 8/10 which should mean that I like Repulsion better (which is a brilliant film) but I'm not really sure about that. Rosemary's Baby is too a brilliant movie, yet maybe a little too slow-paced.
How is The Tenant compared to the to "R":s?
I haven't seen The Tenant either, but Repulsion is easily my favorite of the two. Fantastic film.
I think there's been a rape up there!
It's hard to pick because I give all of them 10/10 think Repulsion is the best film out of the three, but Rosemary's Baby is my favorite. The Tenant is great also, it's sort of like a male version of Repulsion, but with supernatural elements. However, I'd still pick Polanski's Dance of the Vampires over these any day.
The theater is like a faithful wife. The film is the great adventure, the costly, exacting mistress
I found "The Tenant" more farcical, actually than either of the other two films.
Especially the parts when Polanski played "dress up". I laughed out loud then, even though I knew I wasn't supposed to.

i liked the comedy in that.

Rosemary, then The Tenant, then Repulsion.

i found "the tenant" to be the superior film. the music, camera work, and editting are all much better than the other two (he did, after all, make it later in his career.). not to mention, polanski stars in it. he's a great actor when it comes to balancing comedy and paranoia.
actually, i consider "the tenant" to be a merging of the ideas found in the other two movies. it has the conspiracy aspect featured in "rosemary's baby," however its told from the point of view of a protagonist whose perceptions may or may not be reliable, as in "repulsion."
as much as I liked Repulsion, Rosemary's Baby is easily my favorite of the three. It's just so good.
The Tenant was good but I had a few problems with it.
