Movie Reviews of The Omen
Movie Review: One of the best horror movies of all time
Summary: 5 Stars
The Omen is a timeless horror classic, one of the scariest movies ever made, and in my opinion the best movie ever made concerning the antichrist and his uprising. It is a tale of pure horror as a man slowly discovers that his adopted son is none other than the son of satan himself, and any who dare stand in his way are soon to meet their grisly demise.
Well made, well acted, top notch music score from Jerry Goldsmith, and one of the darkest and most ominous feels ever achieved in a horror movie...Truly there's nothing more I can say about The Omen that hasn't been said a thousand times over. If there is such a thing as a perfect horror movie, this would be it. If you want good horror or just a good movie in general, this is one to own.
Movie Review: A Genuine Horror Classic
Summary: 5 Stars
Comparing THE OMEN and THE EXORCIST is like comparing Baseball with Football, so there's really no point. While THE EXORCIST hits you with a traumatic realism, THE OMEN gradually overwhelms you with a deep, lingering dread--both are classics.What I really loved about THE OMEN--and it's mentioned in the DVD's interviews--is that this is not just a horror movie but the tragic story of one man caught up in a future he can't stop. And Gregory Peck plays it perfectly. He was just trying to give his emotionally-fragile wife a child...and everything, quite literally, goes to hell.
The cast was perfect, the direction superb, the music won an Oscar: the film remains one of the great supernatural thrillers of all time.
Movie Review: Scary!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great psychological Horror movie. Definately one of the scariest movies ever made! It's about these parents who real child is dies, and the Mr. Thorn Decides to adopt a boy without his wife knowing. Now Years later, weird and bizzar happenings are a foot, and a priest has informed Mr. Thorn that his adopted son could be the son of the devil, or The Anti-Christ! This is great, has two decent sequels, but the 4th one sucks. This is much better than Rosemary's Baby or The Seventh Sign. This isn't some idiotic slasher film, so those looking for a good horror movie should get this. It's good. Watch it alone without the lights, and make it the perfect atmosphere to get scared. The Biblical version is scarier though.Movie Review: A Classic
Summary: 5 Stars
"The Omen" is one of those few, infact very few realistic horror films. A story that is based on a real fact. Excellent chemistry between Greggory Peck and Lee Remick, the romantic score by Jerry Goldsmith is simply delightfull. Billie Whitelaw was fabulous as the evil Governess, she was very expressive and done her part really well. David Warner as usual gives his best performence. Last but not the least the child Harvey Stephens does very well, the evil expressions that easily potrayed from the little child. Haunting music from Jerry Goldsmith. Excellent scenarios and wonderfull direction makes the film a true classic. If you love classics, trust me you will definately love this one too.Movie Review: The Omen - The Horror Of All Time...
Summary: 5 Stars
I've watched 'the Omen' 6 times... But I can't get tirred of it. It's my favourite horrormovie. Only if I listen to the music I get scared. What really scares you to death is how the Child [Damien Thorn] looks and watches you. 'The Omen' is not for those who get bad dreams. But I think that Richard Donners best movie still is 'the Omen', bad dreams or not. However... He didn't make the other 3 Omens. They didn't even come close to the first one! Except maybe 'The Final Conflict'... But don't ever look 'Omen IV - the Awakening'. It's like an episode of Scooby Doo... Not scary at all. On the DVD of 'the Omen' are some Special Features that killes you... Buy it NOW..!
