At one point in the movie Rosemary can be seen reading "Yes I Can"; which is the autobiography of Sammy Davis Jr.. This is both ironic and pertinent to the story; in fact it's likely more purposeful symbolism and subconscious messaging telegraphed by Roman Polanski to the audience. Because Sammy Davis Junior joined the church of Satan during this period; the late 60s and early 70s; when the movie came out. And he stayed in the cult for awhile, which he understood not to be about devil-worship; but about unbridled naturism and hedonism; about enjoying the pleasures of the flesh. This appealed to Davis during the libertine late 60s. And Davis in fact stayed with the church for years until one of the hedonistic orgy type parties the church threw got way out of hand for various reasons; and Davis; suddenly disillusioned; wound up fleeing the party and the church all at once. All of this plays into the movie's overall themes of the seductiveness and the predatory nature of cults like this and how they lure people in and then victimize them.
