Continuity mistake: When we first see her sitting in Doctor Hill's office, Rosemary does not have the white pocketbook beside her on the chair. Later as she reaches down to open her suitcase, the pocketbook appears on the chair. (01:46:45)
Continuity mistake: Rosemary reaches for her pocketbook on the white chair in Dr. Hill's examining room and the straps are at its sides. Two shots before when she put it down the straps were straight up, and no one has touched it since. (01:50:50)
Continuity mistake: After Rosemary calls up Elise Dunstan she hears something moving around in the apartment and turns her head to the right in order to see what it is. In the next shot when Guy and the others walk into in the room Rosemary's entire body is turned around looking at them. (01:56:30)
Continuity mistake: Rosemary takes a taxi cab to Hutch's funeral and the driver parks the taxi as he waits for her. The next time we see the cab it's been moved and is parked at a different angle than the first time we saw it. (01:25:00 - 01:26:05)
Continuity mistake: Hutch and Rosemary sit in the kitchen having coffee while they're talking about Minnie and Roman. Guy walks in and Rosemary's coffee cup rotates 180 degrees between shots with out her touching it as she speaks to him. (01:06:00)
Continuity mistake: The second room that they walk into is across the hall from the kitchen to the right of the entrance door. Rosemary is the first to go in and walks right up to a window. In the next shot she's standing in front of some plants. (00:04:05)
Continuity mistake: When Rosemary is playing Scrabble the angle of the shadow of her head on her collar changes between shots. (01:29:00)
Continuity mistake: After she sees the baby, Roman says to Rosemary, "His power is stronger than strongerÂ…" and the clock on the back wall reads 8:20. Two shots later we see Laura-Louise's wrist watch and it reads 6:07. (02:10:55)
Continuity mistake: Guy is lying down on the sofa as Rosemary shows him the necklace with the tannis root inside. His right ankle is leaning over the edge of the sofa right next to the lamp. Two shots later Guy says, "Well if you took it you ought to wear it" and the lamp has been moved a foot to the left of his ankle. (00:32:50)
Continuity mistake: At dinner with Hutch, Rosemary sits at her place at the table and we see a plate on the bookshelf behind her. The plate is on the bottom left shelf, close to the center, but later in the scene as they are eating the plate has moved about six inches to the left. The books on the right side of the bookshelf are also rearranged throughout this scene. (00:07:25)
Continuity mistake: Rosemary takes a walk with Hutch and he says, "I say, you had another suicide at happy house". Maurice Evans is British and says, "I say" but the transcriber makes a mistake and the closed captioning reads, "I see". (00:36:10)
Continuity mistake: Rosemary is using a yardstick to draw a line on a piece of paper as Guy walks in and tells her that Donald Baumgart got the part in the play that he was hoping for. She goes into the kitchen to get him a beer and returns to what she was doing and everything has been moved without anyone going near it. Most notable is the book rack and the piece of foam to the left of her. (00:22:30)
Chosen answer: No, Dr. Hill was not a Satan worshiper. He was just Rosemary's first obstetrician, referred to her by a friend. However, her neighbors, the Castevettes, later convince her to instead go to their friend, Dr. Abe Sapperstein, who is a warlock.

He simply didn't believe what she told him so he called her husband to come get her.
Dr. Hill was indulging Rosemary to calm her. The detrimental effects of fear and stress are real. He never believed her claims were true, but he understood how sincere she was in her belief. He was considering becoming involved in her care until he learned the name of her obstetrician. Dr. Abraham Sapirstein was renowned in his field. Dr. Hill respected him. It would have been foolish to interfere with a patient of Dr Sapirstein. So, again, Rosemary was deceived and betrayed by a man she trusted.
