Horror Extreme Movie Catalog

This is a movie I appreciate in terms of it having some interesting philosophical undertones.

The film is underappreciated; people try to make it out to be something that it is not. Of course it is not like the first movie, what sequel ever is? What would be of interest if it was just the same thing recycled all over again?

As for a weak script, I hardly see it. When Damien speaks to Christ and when he does the television interview, he's strangely...right. There's a sick sort of sense to what he says that makes one take a step back for a second and ask themselves, "Am I sympathizing with the Devil?". The third film gave something the others hadn't taken the time to address: what exactly is going through Damien Thorn's head? Why does he do these horrible things? It's what makes the movie viewable, even with its imperfections.

Final Conflict is definitely a flawed film, but at the same time it has a lot of facets to it that make it more than worthwhile. It isn't award winning or the glossed-up mass-marketed movie that people are expecting, and I think that is what gives it charm, and consequently causes people to brush it aside without really examining it properly.

It's not a bad movie, it simply is imperfect, and should be appreciated for what it is rather than what it isn't.

Now the first Omen is a classic hands down. The 2nd is just ok. Now this one, well it's only good as far as closure is concerned. Now this one does have a very interesting story with Damien coming very close to fulfilling his prophecy. The plot was interesting at times. But simply because it lacked a good horror feel and just felt more like,"things happening". The movie just suffered alot.

Sam Neill also did a good job playing the older Damien. But he wasn't scary in the slightest just twisted. The acting was mostly miss and I just couldn't really get into it. With the exception of one suicide, most of the deaths didn't really do anything for me.

If anything, this movie should be remembered as providing some solid closure. The ending is the only reason my rating isn't lower and I can actually watch this one again. The movie isn't too great but the ending makes up for it.
