Mania I. @TheMania510 Nov 2 Expertly directed by Richard Donner this is a very suspenseful and clever film. Wonderfully acted and well written this movie kept me on edge and gave me an eerie feeling from start to finish. I first saw this movie when I was 9 years old and it stayed with me a lifetime. Now that I am 60 years old it's even scarier. Watch it with the lights off if you dare. The best movie in the franchise in my opinion. It was remade in 2006 and spawned three sequels and then a legacy sequel a couple years back. This is by far the best of them all.

See more Claudio C Jul 21 The Omen (1976) A Timeless Film That Has Not Aged After Almost Fifty Years (11,843 – 28 Jul 2000 / 20 Jul 2025 – by Claudio Carvalho) In early 70's, in Rome, American Ambassador Robert Thorn (Gregory Peck) is informed in the hospital that his wife Katherine Thorn (Lee Remick) lost the baby in the delivery. However, Father Spiletto (Martin Benson) offers Robert a baby that was born at the same time and lost his mother and Robert accepts the changeling and does not tell Katherine. On the fifth birthday, Damien (Harvey Stephens) loses his nanny who commits suicide. Immediately after, Mrs. Baylock (Billie Whitelaw) arrives at their house and says that the agency sent her to replace the previous nanny. Soon, Father Brennan (Patrick Troughton) visits Robert at the Embassy and warns him that evil is coming. When mysterious deaths and accidents happen, Robert teams up with photographer Jennings (David Warner) to investigate the origins of Damien. “The Omen” (1976) is a timeless film that has not aged after almost fifty years. Directed by Richard Donner and with names such Gregory Peck, Lee Remick and David Warner in the cast, “The Omen” is a masterpiece of the horror, thriller and mystery. After watching the recent “The First Omen” (2024), rewatching “The Omen” is mandatory to see that both movies are well tied up. My vote is nine.
