Satanic Panic in Italy

 The First Omen



    There are 5 Omen films, and only one of them is remarkable, the first. After that, it's been a sparadic stream of sequels  that haven't been as interesting as the first. And that, my friends, is the why and how of prequels. Hence this 2 hour back story that we technically already had in the first film, but now in visual form with detail...lots of detail. That's why it's so damn long! And summing it up is a bit of a challenge without being snarky...

....so snark it is

    Nun-in-training moves to Rome to become a full fledge nun. She meets a strange girl that people avoid and bad things always seem to happen around her. After snooping around you find out the strange girl is your half sister, you both have the mark of the devil, Oh, and you are preggos with twins, one girl, one hell-spawn. It turns out 'Ol Scratch had to do the dirty deed himself and probably didn't even use a breath mint. The good news is you only have to keep 1 of the kids and you know what happens to the other. I'll give you a hint: His name rhymes with 'Damien'.


Tuesday: It's nice to see Thomas Jane working...
