Repulsion (1965)
“Repulsion” begins with a beauty in a dark depression, and yet what follows is an even deeper spiral within, which yields catastrophic results with every outward encounter. time is marked through the steady decay of a rabbit’s corpse on a serving platter; an oppressive memory physically manifests and pushes our heroine down, deeper than the mind can handle. "Repulsion" is Polanski's first on the apartment theme - see also his "Rosemary's Baby" and "The Tenant." "Repulsion" also seems heavily influenced by Monroe's "Don't Bother to Knock."
