The Omen (1976) Film Review

The fascinatingly diverse late director, Richard Donner,
certainly created an archetype that has proven potent to this
day, with his iconic first big hit. The modern wave of horror
from Hereditary to Insidious to Sinister all crib from the
mounting family dread over a possessed child, that admittedly is
also post The Exorcist. What is often hokum wins here by playing
it with a straight face, having zero fat on the screenplay and a
titan like Gregory Peck at the helm. It still packs a lean punch.
