Lasted watched back In childhood so It was like a new film. I did watch the remake not long back and I can say that It didn't need a remake, It's good as it is and It deserves a place In my small horror collection.

>*"Wrong? What could be wrong with our child, Robert? We're beautiful people, aren't we?"*

Not as good as I remembered, it's so slow, feels long and a lot of it didn't age well. The standout moments are the theatrical kills paired with the intense score—a fabulous mix! The glass window kill is so perfect. The dogs in the cemetary is another moment I enjoy. Not impressed by the child acting but Gregory Peck gave a good performance in the main role. The investigation got tedious after a while, make it 15-20 minutes shorter and you have yourself a great movie. Needed more Damien doing creepy stuff screen time, he was barely in the movie. Unexpected twist but I can't say it was worth all that investigation time.

این فیلم برای نخستین بار در ایران در «جشنواره جهانی فیلم تهران» به نمایش درآمد. چند هفته بعد از اتمام جشنواره، نمایش عمومی آن در سینماهای پارامونت و شهرقصه در تهران آغاز شد. تماشای این فیلم برای اشخاص کمتر از ۱۸ سال ممنوع اعلام شده بود. بعلت اعتصاب دوبلورهای حرفه‌ای و باسابقه در آن زمان، برای دوبله این فیلم از دوبلورهای تازه‌کار و بی تجربه استفاده شده بود که حالت سرد و بیروحی به فیلم داده بود ولی بر حسب تصادف این سردی دوبله بطرز عجیبی با فضای رعب‌آور و خوفناک فیلم هماهنگی داشت و وحشت و اضطراب آن را بمراتب بیشتر کرده بود.

THE OMEN has a few disturbing moments that shock rather than disgust, but the film is loaded with memorable scenes that are ingenious. It's the 'feeling' that the film incites that makes this movie unique. The haunted performances of the actors, the creepy-crawly musical score, the insinuation that doom is slowly creeping into the world with the birth of one lone child, all succeed in making THE OMEN one of the truest horror films.

what can I say, this movie is a máster piece, I justo love it

surely one of the greatest horror film i ever watched

An undisputed movie, a timeless masterpiece.

The Omen is classic religious horror. Harvey Stephens and Billie Whitelaw are fantastic as Damien and Mrs. Baylock. Loved the chanty ominous score. The film isn't perfect, but it earns its place on the upper shelf of the genre.

On my way to do a full marathon (yes, all four). Diabolical kid running amok in zoo, classic!

“Sanguis Bibimus.” The ‘70s horror classic _The Omen_ is a provocative and chilling film. After the mysterious death of his nanny, Robert Thorn is warned by a priest that his son is the Antichrist and that his family is in danger. The pacing is rather slow, but it also creates tension and suspense. And, director Richard Donner does an impressive job at developing an air of mystery that’s quite compelling. Additionally, Jerry Goldsmith’s score is remarkably effective at setting a dark and foreboding tone. Though it’s aged a bit, _The Omen_ delivers a terrifying vision of biblical prophecy.

There's just something about the look and the atmosphere of these 1970's films. I don't think it's anything nostalgic for me but everything seems so real. There's no computer effects or CGI and when the nanny jumps out of the window or when Katherine falls (twice!), it just feels like it could have happened. The deaths are horrific, not gory, but terrible. One of the things that sells them is the shock of the onlookers. My recollection is that at least three of the deaths occur in public.

I like the detective work that Gregory Peck and David Warner team up to do. Peck's character Robert was well-intended at the start but ends up causing and enduring great personal pain. The little kid that plays Damian is the creepiest kid I can recall in a movie and the guardian woman with her Hell hound is pretty much perfect.

"The Omen" isn't scary but it's eerie. It's often compared to "The Exorcist" but I still contend that film is the scariest of all time. "The Omen" is all mood and while I mentioned that some of the death scenes are shocking, there are no stupid jump scares.

The Omen is a harrowing classic that, while dated, still offers a compelling, eerie Satanic romp for those willing to stick out it's sloth-like pace between it's iconic scenes. Doesn't quite stand the test of time like others in it's field (The Exorcist), but definitely worth it's runtime if you're willing to forgive it's very 70's production value.

Hadn't seen this in a long while so I gave it a spin. It really is a great film. It should be judged in terms of '73, not today. It's a classic everyone, especially horror buffs, should see. Many films have taken from it. The only thing that still astounds me is casting Peck as the father. He looked 70 his entire life!!!

Not quite the classic I remembered it to be, but the film still has the power to chill, partly thanks to the ominous choral soundtrack. Those pivotal scenes still impress, including the decapitated journalist, the priest kebab, and those infernal hell hounds. Way better than the remake, unsurprisingly.

A horror classic comparable with "The Exorcist": a boy, born on 6.6. @ 6 A.M., arises to power.
