The Omen (DVD, 2000, Special Edition)

Read the book. I wanted to see the movie. Was hard to find in the video stores. Bought it on ebay. Fast and easy. Good price. Great classic movie.

Suburb horror movie. Not for the faint of heart or super-religious. Original versions always seem the best.

I was happy to recieve this movie, it will add to our horror movie collection. I am very happy with this product.

This DVD completed my collection of the trilogy. It brings back memories. The DVD plays excellently and it arrived in a timely fashion.

After having a stillborn child, Gregory Peck decides to switch infants in the hospital. Bad move. He has his hands full in this one. Wherever this child is, there is trouble, starting with the girl hanging herself. Everyone is telling him that this child is evil including his own wife who doesn't know that boy is not her true son, but he is torn wondering if the child is evil or if the bad things happening around him are a coincidence. Excellent acting and a very original story make this one of the best horror movies of all time that will still horrify 3 decades after it's release.

The AFI has said that this is one of the best films in the horror genre. And boy were they right. The movie has everything going for it. The writing and directing is about as sharp as it comes and so is the acting from all involved.
As one probably knows the movie is about the birth of the Anti-Christ. Heaven help us.

The Omen is the first in a trilogy and is considered a classic film which is often misrepresented as a horror film. The director insists it's a drama. It actually has characteristics of both and is the most frightening film I've ever seen (along with The Omen II (the third film was a dud)). Starring Gregory Peck, this film avoids scaring the audience with the gore you'll get in most horror films. There is little blood, but still manages to be extremely scary. There is nothing I dislike about this dvd. It's a classic, and deserves that label.

i just cant explain it, it just makes u think, bible phrophecy is deep, and it is a horror classic, good to have in my horror collection.

My parents talked about this film as being a great one and scary at that. I am a fan of Horror flicks and finally decided to get this flick on dvd...after getting it and watching it i simply had to get the omen part 2 and so on...then i found out that this year the omen is coming out in theatres. I cant wait hopefully is just as great as the original!
