666=The Omen

Recently i went out and bought "the omen" without even having seen it. i thought it would be a good horror/religion movie...and i was right. it was good. maybe not as scary as the original or as scary as i thought it would be, but it still a great movie.

(SPOILER ALERT)

I have to admit though, it was very hard for me to believe that the mother wouldnt have died from the fall she sustained. i mean come on, three stories down, onto a probably very very very hard floor. i seriously think the back of her head would have caved in or at least crunched very hard. but it was still a good movie, and kind of makes me not want to have children.

but meh ill have them anyway and raise my own little nation of hitlers. lol KDNG!

anyone what does everyone else think of "the omen"?

The Omen remake is terrible - one of the worst horror remakes I've seen. The original is so much better.

[shakes her head and cries into her hands] I KNOW I KNOW!!! i have got to stop doing this...its terrible and sacraligious! but it is the way i have been programmed...the media of today tells me new is better!!!

but i should go and get the originals of these movies just to see what im missing out on. but i refuse to watch the original of "the exocist"! i watched "the exocisim of emily rose" and i was terrified. and ive been told thats the tame sequel or remake, or whatever they deem to call that movie.

I just watched the original Omen last night, and I think that the main thing that makes this one so much better is the music. Sounds silly if you haven't seen it, but you'll know what I mean once you see it.

Im sure i will...if you ever watch a horror film with me (doubtful) you'll notice that when a really scary or gruesome scene is coming up i'll cover my ears. This is because the music in horror movies makes the scare. I can handle watching a scary, bloodboth, rip your throats out with a meat cleaver, movie as long as i dont hear the music. The music is the part of the movie that scares me the most.

Like you said, the music makes the movie. I should have rented the original "Omen" when i got movies last night...totally slipped my mind.

The remake was pure crap. I don't know why they bothered. You at least cared about Gregory Peck and Lee Remick. It was like the remake of Psyco - almost scene for scene. What for?
