Ed . The Devil Made Me Do It Very few sequels surpass the original (possibly The Godfather II, Star Trek III The Wrath of Kahn, Porkys II). Very many are very inferior (Speed 2, Superman IV, Caddyshack II). This one holds its own fairly well. While it lacks the punch of The Omen simply by being second, it still commands suspense and a strange satisfaction of witnessing the horrors. Having William Holden and Lee Grant star certainly helps. Most critics rate this film to be not as good as the first one, but some, like Vincent Canby of the NY Times, found it more fun to watch. I think my comment above agrees with his take.

Meanwhile, Damien is protected by worshipers of the devil and dark forces, killing every enemy that threatens him. Richard takes a long time to believe the information he receives throughout the story and the final devil worshiper is a great twist at the end of the plot. My vote is eight. Title (Brazil): “Damien: A Profecia II” (“Damien: The Omen II”) My Blog: https://maniacosporfilme.wordpress.com/ Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/22/25 Full Review Jerod S For a late 70s sequel, Damien 2 follows up with the kid who is supposed to be the devil spawn. The drowning under ice was the only death that was lame. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/05/25 Full Review Audience Member This movie is better than the first one, features much more acting, and has a nice script. The character development is stronger, especially with Damien, whose growing awareness of his dark destiny adds a layer of psychological tension. The pacing is more balanced, allowing the story to unfold with greater suspense, and the supporting cast gives more convincing performances. The film expands the mythology introduced in the original, giving viewers a broader sense of the world Damien inhabits. The ominous atmosphere is intensified through haunting music and stark cinematography, making the horror feel more grounded and unsettling. Overall, Damien: Omen II succeeds as a compelling sequel that both respects and builds upon the original's legacy. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/15/25 Full Review Justin T Looking at the film I liked the movement and the style. The locations looked amazing. The sound has not aged well and actually sounds fairly terrible. It had no bass and the high end was pushed way too far. The murder death kills were pretty cool (especially the elevator death) although not that gory but as this is a thriller I didn’t mind. The story didn’t really progress from the first film and there was no real suspense. Quite well paced and nice to look at but ultimately more of the same.
