Omen Movie
The prophecy is clear, the signs unmistakable: Armageddon is upon us. On 6 / 6 / 06, the omen is revealed...and our darkest fears are realized... Robert Thorn (Liev Schreiber) is a senior American diplomat whose wife, Katherine (Julia Stiles), endures a difficult delivery where their newborn child has died. Thorn knows the news will devastate Katherine, who had suffered two previous miscarriages. The hospital priest, Father Spiletto, presents Thorn with another child born that night, whose mother died in childbirth. The priest compels Thorn to take the infant boy as his own Katherine will never know the truth, and their son, which they name Damien, will be raised as their flesh and blood. Thorn's career ascends - he becomes the U.S. ambassador to Great Britain - and the family settles into an estate outside London. But certain events, all seeming to revolve around the now five-year-old Damien, are deeply disturbing: Damien's nanny hangs herself at the youngster's birthday party a children's trip to the zoo results in a panicked frenzy Damien becomes hysterical during a drive to church a strange priest brings dire warnings to Thorn and blurred movements in a series of photographs portend shocking deaths. These troubling incidents multiply, pointing to something wrong - terribly wrong - with Damien. Enter Mrs. Baylock, Damien's new nanny, who seems to have a preordained devotion to the child. Then tragedy strikes closer to home. But only later does Thorn comprehend the truth: Damien is no ordinary child he is the long-prophesized Anti-Christ. Thorn must make the ultimate sacrifice and prevent the unspeakable terror that awaits the world. Re-make of Richard Donner's 1976 horror classic.
