When his wife Katherine (Lee Remick)'s pregnancy ends in a stillbirth in a Rome hospital, U.S. diplomat Robert Thorn (Gregory Peck) substitutes another baby, whose mother died. Little Damien (Harvey Stephens) thrives, but, at his fifth birthday party, his nanny mysteriously dies; Father Brennan (Patrick G. Troughton) also expires after warning Thorn that he has adopted Lucifer's son. While sinister new nanny Mrs. Baylock (Billie Whitelaw) assiduously protects Damien, Thorn's fears escalate when photographer Jennings (David Warner) shows him pictures from Damien's party with marks suggesting how the nanny and Brennan would die. Thorn seeks out Bugenhagen (Leo McKern), an exorcist who confirms Damien's identity and tells Thorn that the only solution is to kill his adopted son. As the bodies pile up, Thorn tries to do his duty, but trust the Law to get in the way of saving the world from future Armageddon. Eschewing the less-is-more approach of Rosemary's Baby (1968), director Richard Donner matched the ancient conflict between Good and Satan with spectacularly "medieval" deaths by hanging, impalement, and decapitation. As in such other '70s Satanism horror as The Exorcist (1973), The Omen locates the ultimate evil in an "innocent" minor, creating a parent's worst nightmare: a child who will inevitably annihilate the world. With its familial and global anxieties, stylish production values, and major stars, The Omen became one of the most popular movies of 1976 (and the first horror film to win an Oscar for Best Score). While considered by some an exercise in Hollywood slickness, The Omen refuses to be comforting --- as may be expected from the first part of a trilogy that concluded with The Final Conflict (1981). --- Lucia Bozzola Fueled by advances in special effects, the birth of the midnight movie, and a cultural fascination with mysticism, the horror genre achieved a status in the 1970s not seen since its glory days of the 1930s. Of all the occult horror films that surfaced in the wake of 1968's Rosemary's Baby, Richard Donner's phenomenally successful The Omen (1976) was the slickest and least subversive. Derivative but effective, the film was Gregory Peck's box-office comeback, and it offered a convincing turn from Lee Remick as well. The Omen never achieved the cult status of other specimens of the genre, but it paved the way for such 1980s big-budget mystical horror films as The Howling (1981) and Poltergeist (1982). The film's success also ensured more big-screen projects for Donner, including the Lethal Weapon series. --- Brendon Hanley Cast: Gregory Peck - Robert Lee Remick - Katherine Thorn David Warner - Jennings Billie Whitelaw - Mrs. Baylock Harvey Stephens - Damien Leo McKern - Bugenhagen Patrick Troughton - Father Brennan Martin Benson - Father Spiletto Anthony Nicholls - Dr. Becker Holly Palance - Young Nanny John Stride - Psychiatrist Robert MacLeod - Mr. Horton Robert Rietty - Monk Yacov Banai - Arab Burnell Tucker - Secret Service Man Bruce Boa - Thorn's Aide Sheila Raynor - Mrs. Horton Roy Boyd - Reporter Freda Dowie - Nun Tommy Duggan - Priest Richard Donner Nicholas Campbell - Marine Betty McDowall - Secretary Nancy Manningham - Nurse Patrick McAlinney - Photographer Don Fellows - Thorn's Second Aide Miki Iveria - First Nun Ronald Leigh-Hunt - Gentleman Crew: Richard Donner - Director Harvey Bernhard - Producer David Seltzer - Screenwriter Gilbert Taylor - Cinematographer Jerry Goldsmith - Composer (Music Score) Stuart Baird - Editor Carmen Dillon - Art Director George Richardson - Art Director Charles Orme - Associate Producer Mace Neufeld - Executive Producer Tessa Davies - Set Designer Gordon Everett - Sound/Sound Designer Stuart Freeborn - Makeup George Gibbs - Special Effects John Richardson - Special Effects David Tomblin - First Assistant Director Claude Hudson - Production Manager Maude Spector - Casting Awards: Best Original Score (win) Jerry Goldsmith 1976 Academy Best Song (nom) Jerry Goldsmith 1976 Academy Damien: Omen 2 1978 / 107 Minutes / Color Rated R Description: In this follow-up to THE OMEN, the demon child is visited upon a pair of relatives (Holden and Grant). As Damien comes to realize his own satanic nature, his adopted parents must try to stop the forces of evil. Grisly shocks and a strong sense of doom make this a worth sequel. Cast: William Holden Lee Grant Jonathan Scott-Taylor Lew Ayres Sylvia Sidney Crew: Director Don Taylor Producer Harvey Bernhard Director Mike Hodges Composer Jerry Goldsmith Omen III: The Final Conflict 1981 / 108 Minutes / Color Rated R Description: The third film in the OMEN series.
