We watched The Omen today. This is a bit of a spooky movie. It stars Liev Schreiber (Robert Thorn), Julia Stiles (Katherine Thorn), and Seamus Davey-Fitzpatrick (Damien), among others. This is a remake of the 1976 movie by the same name. For spooky church vs Satan kind of stuff, this movie can deliver the goods, although they aren’t the best goods. They’re just adequate goods. I mean, this movie is no Seventh Sign (starring Demi Moore), but it still delivers the same kind of content and its definitely a good watch, despite the harsh critics at Rotten Tomatoes. Others have seemed to agree with me.
Synopsis:
The prophecy is clear, the signs unmistakable: Armageddon is upon us. On 6/6/06, the omen is revealed…and our darkest fears are realized. THE OMEN, a contemporary thriller based on the 1976 classic film, centers around a young boy named Damien, the son of an American diplomat and his wife. Damien’s family is unaware he is destined to become the Anti-Christ – until shattering events reveal the terrifying truth.
