Worst way to go in the Omen films

[Rudi Hedman]

Most people refer to the doctor who analyses teenage Damien’s blood in Omen 2 and the journey in the lift 🥴

The archaeologist stuck to the end of the train is pretty grim but there’s also Bugenhagen and friend who get buried alive under sand at the beginning of Omen 2. Your cousin giving you an instant life ending brain tumour was dark and the start of him realising his power.

And whose baby was the 2nd coming Nazarene? Was it the baby son of Damien’s male secretary? The babies must have been switched if so, and that’s a bit dark. Actually it couldn’t have been because the mother was hypnotised by the Doberman to burn her baby with the hot clothes iron.

when i am half asleep in a Hospice bed, i want that dramatic Omen music played. Otherwise it will all be fairly boring.

I love the original films. Even three is almost watchable. The remake not so.
I spent many a school assembly trying to conjure up my inner Omen but sadly failed. So I just spent the time acting the bollox instead. Sorry teachers.

Yeah it's definitely the lift cable, although don't forget his Mum died giving birth, something I pray doesn't happen to me.

The prequel to Omen 1 is pretty good - ‘The First Omen’. Made in 2024 so very new.

Having your bonce cut off by a sheet of glass didn't look like fun.

Typical expert coming on here talking about something they've never tried.

I'm quite content to leave it that way.

Thing is that beheading death by the sheet of glass was instant and I don’t think he knew it was coming for a few seconds. The cable through the belly wasn’t instant death and neither was dying under ice, being stuck to the front of a fast rolling train, or having your cousin give you a quick killing brain tumour.

Still rather leave it, thanks.

Thanks for the heads up - haven't seen it.

As a little aside.....I could have been Damien in the original.

The little Mezzer was in an advert for honey and my performance was so stunning that I was asked to go for auditions for a film part. Trouble was, it was on a Saturday so I wanted to play football instead.

Turned out the audition was to play Damien. So my love of the beautiful game saved me from a career as an entitled luvvie. Though I don't know what happened to Damien afterwards, to be fair.

He changed his name to James Ward-Prowse.

He grew up to be that Aussie actor and then Jesus got rid of him. Surely you knew that?
You're lucky you didn't end up an Aussie. Although you would have got to sleep with Kidman when she didn't look weird in Dead Calm.

And to think I chose to play one football match......

Still, I'm still here, just about.

Actually, he is a New Zealander.

The worst death has to be the bloke who gets burned in the TV studio wrapped in plastic.

I always thought that the ending of Omen III was pathetic, given the series had been pretty good up until then.

Omen iv was utterly dire. I cannot believe how little effort is often put into sequels of decent movies. We see this again and again.......Terminator, Star Wars, Alien........they always seem to become bland and predictable.
Omen iv looks like the budget was 50p, and all the actors had a hangover.

The best thing about the 2006 movie ? Pete Postlethwaite , what a brilliant actor he was.

the 2024 movie ? seen it. And only now remembering that one of the actors is an Eagle.
