Nell Tiger Free is just that bitch fr. Her acting in this movie and the series Servant is incredible. Glad she’s finally getting some well deserved recognition. Also this is definitely one my favorite prequels I’ve ever watched. Might be my favorite film this year so far.

[@daniellemaines4874]

THE SERVANT! Thank you!!! I could have googled it but I was trying to figure it out as I was sure it’d come to me. God, it took me soooo long to figure out whether Leanne was friend or foe or neither in that show. The female characters were so polarising, both strong as hell and also damaged as fk but also potentially very dangerous, whilst the male characters were largely so benign and unfit for duty. Not talking about “cult members”, just those in the household. I loved the show so much.

[@gratefulsam4055]

She's princess Myrcella Baratheon.

When the original score from 1976 blasted during Damien's birth I got chills in the theater. It was glorious!

[@LeslieField-k1u]

The name Scianna for the mutant baby attempts is also a callback to 1976. In the original, it is the made-up name on the graves where they find the jackal's skeleton and the murdered Thorn infant.

[@aspieanarchist5439]

@@LeslieField-k1u Scianna is "Latin" for "Shadow" hence Maria Scianna means "Mary of Shadow" and Bambino Scianna means "Child of Shadow" referring to the fact their lives and identities were considered interchangeable with another female or baby for the dark ritual.

Was nice to see them Bring back that whole your okay now but something’s coming feeling , I feel they did a great job seeming they changed the lore somewhat , so they can make another one kinda showing even more if they want - always been a fan of omen movies even the not so good ones but great acting refreshing

[@daniellemaines4874]

As a huge fan of the original, I went into this with zero expectations and I absolutely loved it. The first five minutes alone made me realise that the creators were also massive fans of the original as it completely set the same tone so after that I was able to just relax and enjoy the film. Even the retconning of Damien’s parentage didn’t bother me in the slightest as narratively it actually makes a lot more sense. This is absolutely my favourite film of the year, possibly decade, maybe millennia. I could be just excited cos I just watched it two days ago though.

[@PassTheMarmalade1957]

Seeing all the broken glass falling in slow motion with the score, it immediately transported me back to the original.

[@daniellemaines4874]

@@PassTheMarmalade1957 Absolutely, you just knew something totally horrific was going to happen. It was so ominous from the get go. And what a wonderful five minute usage of Charles Dance. That brain damaged smile at the end is forever going to be etched in my mind.

[@Pentarax]

With the context of this movie, I like to think Brennan lied about which parent the Jackal was to keep Thorn from getting mixed up with Margaret and possibly putting her in danger.

[@daniellemaines4874]

@@Pentarax That would certainly make sense. It does seem he wants to protect her. I just read his back story on The Omen Wiki page and he was not a good dude. He wasn’t born with the mark, he developed it through his actions. Obviously I need to read the book.

[@Sharpe1502]

I am also a huge fan of the original, and I thought the first trailer was so good, but I still didn’t have any expectations. I watched this the day it hit Hulu and watched it twice in a day. I absolutely love this movie.

[@Pentarax]

Mildly heartwarming theory; Brennan lied to Thorn about who the Jackal was to keep Margaret safe. As we saw here, it was the father, but in the original, he said it was a mother. I think he was trying to keep Thorn from going anywhere near Margaret out of a sense of protection.

[@KlimaVesniBubreg]

Holy shitt! Good theory my man. I was never bothered by that that in the orignal omen the mother was a jackal, and in the prequel, a father. But what you said here is a pretty good theory. Amazing thought! 🔥🔥

[@rebeccahopkins9522]

4:29 I’d know that deep, reverberating, bass voice anywhere- “corruption, thou art my father”. That’s the dad from The Witch! He looks so different without the beard. But there’s no mistaking that incredible voice.

[@ИванСавинов-э2д]

Totally agree!!!

[@BrandonJames2016]

This was such an amazing prequel I rolled my eyes when it was first announced bc I was like why. Then I watched it which made me feel disturbed and loved it. The hand coming out of the pregnant woman made my mouth drop. The only things I didn’t like about the movie is the father was the jackal which isn’t fitting in the continuity but oh well , it dragged a little bit at the beginning, and the fact the movie tries to act like the main character being Damian’s mom was this shocking twist when it felt pretty obvious. Other than those things loved this movie sm one of my favorites of the year that surprised me at how good it was. It truly felt like a movie from the 70’s. They weren’t afraid to go there to shock the audiences which I appreciate.

[@idelispizarro4091]

This was such a great movie I loved it! Also I felt the same way about Father Brennens voice too Sergio😂 The ending gave me chills even though I knew what’s to come for the omen but damn this movie will forever stick with me. That birth scene with the hand coming out will haunt me for quite a bit 🫠😅

[@luckyhamstergt]

The guy who plays Father Brennan has such a unique voice that he could narrate the phone book and sound sinister. Hence why he was in Diablo 4, as effectively the lore master and recently cast as Galactus in the MCU.

[@Taramw32]

I just watched this one yesterday, and enjoyed it more watching it again with you! The actor with the deep voice is Ralph Ineson. He was in “The Witch”, which you should also watch!

[@Alyxnyte]

Watching this in theaters was absolutely amazing. The scene that made everyone scream the loudest was when she comes out of the dark and keeps coming slowly. That scene was enough to make me hide behind my hands lmao

[@Wash869]

React to the film: MAY THE DEVIL TAKE YOU (2018), this film, which is basically an EVIL DEAD from Indonesia, has sinister and surprising moments, it's worth checking out.

[@eduardo_corrochio]

I knew this was going to be a fun reaction because my partner and I recently saw this movie and loved it. What a good piece of horror cinema. The tie-ins to the original material were great, and I'm sure there will be more movies continuing the story--- even if they are "sidebar" tales that happened during Damien's childhood and entrance into maturity. This director and writer and cinematographer were so good! I mean, making the viewer highly unsettled just by showing Margaret's clothes hanging on a wall in the background?? Awesome. When Jerry Goldsmith's music from '76 comes into this film, I got chills. It was perfection to use that theme, a score which won him an Oscar. The choir is so dramatic and sweeping in its power. Ooh, and the first few Latin words we hear translate to "We drink the blood, we eat the body". Jerry wanted to take the Catholic mass and turn it aorund into something unholy. He succeeded, 100%. Here is a video of the theme being performed by an orchestra for Mr. Goldmsith's 80th birthday celebration in 2009: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bHmWhpytipaBa6s
