Minnie and the food she kept serving..


the steak dinner, the cake, mousse. petit fours.
The Cassavets wanted to pull Guy into their Devil worship lifestyle, but why use food? why not just cast a spell using 1 of their personal effects?

They invited Guy and Rosemary over to dinner to ingratiate themselves and for Roman to have a chance to talk to Guy. They pulled in Guy by offering him a deal, not just by feeding him. And the mousse wasn't to pull Guy in; Rosemary's serving was drugged so that she could be unconscious while the Devil raped her.

Personal belongings were used to put a curse on someone--e.g., making Donald Baumgart go blind, putting Hutch into a coma. But they weren't trying to bring harm to Guy.
