Review of The Omen (2006) by Liam J — 17 Apr 2012
A pointless almost shot for shot remake of the original classic which alot like Gus van sant's psycho sets the standard for displaying the fact you cant just copy something and get the same effect as the first time around.
It's two biggest mistakes (of which there are many) are Damien who tries to look murderess and creepy all the time instead of innocent and cherub like in the original (way more creepy...) and of all the things it re-does Jerry Goldsmiths terrifying score isn't one of them, shocking in all the wrong ways.
