The First Omen, reviewed by Eric Goldman. Narrated by Erik Adams.

The First Omen manages to serve as a well made prequel as well as an unsettling and creepy horror film in its own right. It takes awhile to get going, and the very end bends backwards pretty far to create setup for potential follow-ups, but the brunt of the movie is very strong, with lead Nell Tiger Free and director Arkasha Stevenson both cementing themselves as stars on the rise.

    This is the one that for me would be the best of the year. On top of Immaculate, and the one with Dalmatchian.

    The ending kinda ruins it, but solid run up till that last scene.

    The only negative for me were the nightmare/artsy shots the movie tried to do, they don't fit with the Omen franchise for me. Also they changed the ending and I'm not sure how it would fit with the 70s movie.
