In Roman Polanski's first English-language film, beautiful young manicurist Carole suffers from androphobia (the pathological fear of interaction with men). When her sister and roommate, Helen, leaves their London flat to go on an Italian holiday with her married boyfriend, Carole withdraws into her apartment. She begins to experience frightful hallucinations, her fear gradually mutating into madness.

Only nightmares, and not very graphic, but do depict rape, repeatedly

There are apparitions, but because the main character is mentally ill, it's implied that they are hallucinations rather than spirits.

Yes, there are a couple of shakey scenes, particularly at the end. I don't know why people are voting "no."
