neutral · AI labelView post →Night Slaves (1970). Tight TV movie that starts with a mystery that still haunts. Short film, all story! James Franciscus, Lee Grant (Damien Omen II), Andrew Prine (Grizzly), Leslie Nielsen, Tisha Sterling (Coogan’s Bluff), Virginia Vincent (Hills Have Eyes)… directed by Ted Post (Magnum Force).

The same year, Goldsmith also composed scores for "The Boys form Brazil" (Oscar nomination), "Capricorn One" and "Damien: Omen II." #TheSwarm #TCMParty #DisasterMovies
neutral · AI labelView post →The Omen is obviously the best movie of the franchise, but Damien - Omen II is the best Omen Movie of the franchise. It's a version of The Rocky/Rocky IV Paradox

Lance Henriksen kills it as the mentor! The young actors are great! The music drives this film! #theomen #horrormovies #psychostudios

neutral · AI labelView post →Ah yes. The Omen. I had a haircut just like the young (satanic) boy in the sequel to this film ("Damien: Omen II") and was the same age at the time of its release. Ended up being called Damien for a whole term.
neutral · AI labelView post →Damien - Omen II (1978 Movie) Early part of this movie was kinda awkward, But Boy did it pick up towards the end, Also was interesting to see Damien actually have remorse in grappling with his true nature. Death by 7 Crows/10
positive · AI labelView post →I am somehow reminded of the random plane disasters in the movie ‘The Omen’ and ‘Damien, Omen II’ related to the Antichrist… trumpichrist.com
neutral · AI labelView post →#NowWatching Damien - Omen II (1978) I am a massive fan of the original film and The First Omen (2024). I've never seen the sequels but, I have seen the 2006 remake. I believe that if you ignore the books, online discussions and sequels The First Omen is a seamless prequel.
neutral · AI labelView post →I love DAMIEN: OMEN II because Damien isn't particularly evil for the lion's share of the film. To the point that he gets a bit of parallel to Jesus' realization about who he is, an absent father &the choices he may/may not have. (Crying out on the dock) THEN he goes low key SCANNERS on his cousin!

negative · AI labelView post →#SPOOKATHONX FILM #27 Damien: Omen II (1978) Pointless sequel. Accomplishes nothing that wasn't already done and resolved in the first movie. It's just more of the same and meaningless characters dying for no real justified reason. 4/10
negative · AI labelView post →Becky, you mentioned that you liked Roger Corman's Tomb of Ligeia. Did you know that Elizabeth Shepherd, who starred in that film, was the woman attacked by the raven and hit by the truck in Damien - Omen II?
neutral · AI labelView post →Damien Omen II is the original Final Destination film imo. Not as classy or as good as the original, but a hell of a lot of fun.
neutral · AI labelView post →Although there are jump-scares, Damien Omen II is not a traditional horror film. No fogs, no squeeky floorboards etc. It plays out like a thriller, but intellectually, it's more disturbing than the monster style of horror film. Full review here boxd.it/dcKrOh

Some of her film include Street Scene (1931), Sabotage (1936), Behind the High Wall (1956), Damien - Omen II (1973), Beetlejuice (1988), Mars Attacks! (1996), and others .#BOTD #OnThisDay

neutral · AI labelView post →Damien: Omen II was a film I watched a ton as a kid (my uncle bought the remains of a Betamax video shop). I even used the video box as a pencil case in secondary school.
positive · AI labelView post →I finished THE OMEN last night & realized I was waiting for a scene that's in the 2nd movie 😅 I did not remember the ending But I started the sequel, DAMIEN - OMEN II & forgot how much I hated Damien in this, SO arrogant 😂
negative · AI labelView post →Is Damien: Omen II a Christmas movie?
neutral · AI labelView post →Uh. Movie #7 is The Omen? (They haven’t shown this before?) Pre-show trailers: The Devil’s Rain, The Sentinel, and Damien: Omen II.
neutral · AI labelView post →Following from the really enjoyable "Omen" from three years earlier, our eponymous antichrist (Jonathan Scott-Taylor) is now in his teens, and together with his cousin "Mark" (Lucas Donat) attends a military academy whilst under the care of his uncle "Richard" (William Holden) and aunt "Ann" (Lee Grant). I think the problem with this follow up is that having already been exposed to the style of horror this offers: the sharp violin music, tight facial close ups, and the use of an animal (in this…
neutral · AI labelView post →Actually not half bad and kind of enjoyed this one a bit more than the first film. Still not great but had its moments, mainly seeing Damien come to realization of who he is and coming to accept it. 3.25/5
positive · AI labelView post →This wasn't as good as Richard Donner's superb original, but it's a solid sequel. It lacks the unique sense of despair and menace of one's own child perhaps being the Antichrist, and the suspense is neither as taut nor as skillfully handled, but there are some great death scene set-pieces here, and it's not as bad as horror fans would let you think it is. I have a special place in my heart for the religious thriller, so perhaps I'm a tad more lenient than I should be in my grading, but I could…
