they made like 5 of those movies, I think one had a little girl in it, you should have gone all out and bought the box set. I've seen them all and none recently, I think I was 12 the last time I saw it on tv. Its not really scary. Its not even gory.

Yes, The Omen 1, 2 and 3 are all worth seeing, but especially 1.

they made 4.
#4 has the girl and its made-for-tv.

the 1st one is a great movie which had a couple of great gore scenes for a 'main stream' film at the time.

Actually all 3 omens (screw the 4th) had at least one good gore scene . it's ont of the things the series was known for...

I cant vouch for 2 and 3, i havent seen 3 and it has been about 15 years since i saw 2, but the first one is a classic. Nothing beats Gregory Peck saying "Damian?"

Once you have watched it, watch it again with the commentary. Richard Donner (yep, mr Superman and Lethal Weapon director Richard Donner) is a riot. He will go off on tangents, making up shit about how they filmed the movie and then say "Just kdding." Funny stuff.
