The Omen


"The Omen" ~ 1976

Netflix description = Robert and Katherine Thorn raise a boy, Damien, in place of their stillborn infant.  All is well until it is foretold that Damien is the spawn of the devil.  Soon, Robert is pitted against the forces of hell and must make a fateful decision.

It had been so long since seeing this movie it seemed new to me, even though I knew the story.  I enjoyed the subtle, psychological creepiness of it and though it will always be a classic, by todays horror standards it is a bit outdated.

My score 3/5  always a classic....
