The Omen (1976)
7/10
Effective storytelling!
31 May 2024
While the scares may not be overwhelmingly terrifying, the narrative keeps the suspense alive from start to finish.

Despite its formulaic and predictable nature, the story effectively develops around its initial premise, allowing for a meaningful narrative progression.

The tension is undeniably palpable, leaving audiences intrigued about the child and the potential mysteries surrounding him.

Additionally, the technical aspects are commendable, particularly the lifelike prosthetics that enhance the overall authentic feel of the production.

If there's any critique to be made it would be the desire for exploration of that malevolent child's powers and deceptions, which could have added further depth to the storytelling.
