... View MoreThe Omen, directed by Richard Donner (director of The Goonies) and starring Gregory Peck as Robert Thorn and David Warner as Jennings, is an absolutely fantastic promotor not alone for the supernatural-horror genre, but for the film industry itself. Peck and Donner have both had phenomenal careers in acting, particularly Gregory Peck who has starred in Roman Holiday with Audrey Hepburn and To Kill A Mockingbird, based on the world-renowned novel by Harper Lee. Due to a fabulous duo and supporting cast, all who perform exceptionally, the visually stunning violence is encapsulating and completely unpredictable.The film is a supernatural, horror film, centered on the Anti-Christ/Spawn of Satan, who takes the form of a human boy. Off the synopsis alone, you know it'll be hard to get it wrong.The film is renowned for its enlightenment on the number of Satan, the triple-six (666). Based off readings in the bible, The Omen captures the pure essence of supernatural-horror, and, despite the antagonist being a small child, it can become truly terrifying thanks to a great psychotic demon-bodyguard One of the best finale sequences I've yet to witness and should (if it even can) not disappoint.
... View MoreI just recently re-watched this and the remake...there's really no fair comparison.Gregory Peck wins over Liev Schreiber, but then Peck is the better actor.Lee Remick is far more believable than Julia Stiles who doesn't seem to convey the same earnest fear and suspicion.David Thewlis is a good actor, but in bit parts he always seems to phone it in and David Warner was just the more believable photographer.I mean, the 1976 The Omen is dated, but that's not a bad thing and in this case you get the sense that they were doing something fresh and really trying to frighten you...and they did.By comparison the remake is paint by numbers and offers nothing new.1976 is, hands down the more frightening, more dramatic, and more suspenseful film. Compared to 2006. 1976 is believable.
