The film that single-handedly caused kids named Damien to get bullied at school, the Omen is a 1970’s suspense/horror film that relies on mood and pace to elicit an eerie sense of dread in the viewer. Gregory Peck is utterly believable as the Senator with an evil little shit for a son.
Throw in horror convention, a creepy nanny, a house that lacks life and a biblical poem and you have a classic that looks dated but still manages to shock and entertain. Goldsmith's score adds an extra layer of eerie.
