1 - Do you remember when you first watched it? Theater, VHS, DVD?
Watched it on TV a few years ago.

2 - Did you get any feedback (from friends or media) prior to watching it?
I remember a few years before I saw it for the first time my mother (who isn't usually the kind to watch horror films) watched it after I had gone to bed. It was quite loud and could hear it while I was lying in bed. I was already aware of the film though.


3 - How was the viewing experience?
Can't quite say I remember. When I was first going to watch it on TV, I was getting prepped as I had the house to myself only for my sister and her boyfriend to barge in and watch TV instead, which annoyed me. I've always been honest that this has never been a favourite, although I am fond of it. I always felt that Omens II and III are underrated. Omen IV is dire though.


4 - How many times have you rewatched it since?
A few times

5 - Any memories associated with it, that you wish to share?
Again in my University days this was required viewing to learn about scoring horror films. Unfortunately I missed the screening (I had to have a criminal record check which was standard procedure at the university so a few of us missed the screening). It was a shame because I always prefer watching a film in a screening room or theatre environment to anything else and one of my friends (Who HATES horror movies and is scared witless by them) got to go and I missed his reaction. Still I got the film on DVD and watched that and the next week we watched the openings of several horror films in class and freaked him out (I especially recall his reaction to the opening to Texas Chainsaw Massacre. lol).
