We just watched The Omen...
It was great...but why didn't someone warn me that this thing was going to end like that!? I got WAY too into it. I cannot watch movies about Catholic Dogma. It freaks me out way too much.

3. The Omen is about an Ambassador...
...whose wife has a baby in Rome. There were complications, and supposedly, her baby died. There was another baby born in the hospital that night and it's mother died, so they switched them, and never told the wife. Well, life goes on just peachy until the baby's 6th birthday. Then his nanny sees a black dog in the driveway and hangs herself off the the top of their castle of a house. THen Mia Farrow shows up. Turns out the kid is the Antichrist. (I didn't give anything away that most people don't know about this movie. Everything I mentioned was in the previews.)They did some wonderful casting with this movie. Three actors from the Harry Potter movies were in it (The new Dumbledore, Lupin, Karkaroff). I recommend it, just understand that if you believe in any of the Christian Dogma, you're going to be freaked the fuck out.

5. The original yes...
But in the remake, Liev Scheiber takes the reins. Oh how I love me some Liev. We see anything if he's in it. He's an incredible actor. He knows how to pick his parts. Have you seen Sum of All Fears? He's AWESOME in that!

7. Yeah.
It's one of my favorites. He was the agent who Ben goes out to meet on that boat and almost gets killed with in that secret lab where they made the nuke.

9. We could watch him paint a wall as long as he was talking...
And we'd love it. He's got this hypnotizing voice.
