6/10
If its not broken don't fix it!

The Omen (Origional) Is one of my favourite movies of all time and I really don't feel like it needed to be re-made. I admit some bits in the original are a bit shabby. I thought the impaling scene was more realistic in the remake. In the original the priest just stands there waiting to be impaled. But in the remake it caught him by surprise. I thought that Damien in the remake looks more evil than Damien in the original. He looks to cute to be the son of the devil in the original. Lol. Those are the only two points that I thought were better in the remake. I feel like they tried to make it a horror thats visually scary and a typical horror that rely on typical horror stuff. But the original was a psychological horror that really made you think. I mean, this stuff is predicted in the bible! Thats the scariest part.

I think eventually people are going to run out of ideas for horrors so everything will be re-made... I really hope that doesn't happen! Writers need to start digging deeper than pointless gore and slasher films. They don't make them like The (Origional) Omen any more. 6/10
