Review of The Omen

Terrifying and eternal, The Omen is an immortal classic of the horror that overcame the fashion of horror movies with the supernatural theme/demonic of the 70’s in a great production. Telling the frightening story of an important politician who engages in a frantic journey after discovering that his adopted son is the antichrist, then humanity is in danger. The film has good performances from the entire cast, but especially for Harvey Stephens that even very young conveys the infantilism innocence with evilness of the true nature of their exceptional character and Billie Whitelaw (and scary) as the faithful and satanic Damien's nanny. Photography and gloomy soundtrack come together for the good performance of the cast to create a film that holds a distressing atmosphere from beginning to end.
