Normally I wouldn't review something before I viewed it... October 24, 2008 ...because the condition of the DVD's is a big part of the review. But none of the reviewers have complained about the DVD's, so I guess they're ok. It's basically just the original Omen that matters; all the rest are merely along for the ride. The Omen was the only movie I've ever seen that actually scared me to where I checked all the windows and doors before going to bed - and I saw it on network TV, chopped up with tons of advertisements. As most of the other reviewers have noted, it was the atmosphere that, more than the actual events of the movie, created the sense of terror. And the graveyard sequence was absolutely the most terrifying scene of any movie I've ever watched. This movie, perhaps more than any other movie I can think of, demonstrates how little murder and mayhem is necessary to create a first rate horror film. It's not so much about what actually happens as it is about what the atmosphere makes you think might happen. And even when the very worst you can imagine doesn't happen, it's not a let down because it's still scary.
Great Classics! July 3, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Great quality and well, theyre decades old movies about the Anti-Christ so theyre pretty good. Sam Niell does an excellent job in 3!
A Great Collection! June 18, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I stumbled upon this little gem, and boy am I glad.
Every Omen DVD in one great collection. The Omen (the original) is a great film. Is Damien really evil, or is everything just a series of creepy coincidences? Find out with the terrific Gregory Peck as Damien's father, Robert Thorn. The musical score is terrific, dare I say it is one of the best (if not the best) horror movie theme music for terror. And this is the special edition with 2 DVDs included! Great extras.
I also love the sequel The Omen II: Damien. I think that it is an interesting and accommodating return to the original, but a good movie in its own right. Sometimes, I think I might like this one best of the whole series.
As for Final Conflict and The Awakening: they are both subpar continuations of this great series. Final Conflict is worth watching for several reasons, mainly Sam Neill. He is amazingly brilliant as the devil's son. Even the team of fighting monks is not that bad considering. There are some things in this film that I just cannot stomach though, and I do not want to give anything away so I will just say that some of the horrible things you may read in the bible are more easily read than witnessed. (There is also a sex scene in this film; more weird than raunchy.) The Awakening is not even worth discussing. Utterly ridiculous, I am surprised I waited it out until the end. Watch it if you must, but realize that it will probably be your first and last time. Luckily, one dud movie in this collection should not spoil the whole thing.
The 2006 remake did not really cut it for me. I must admit that some scenes were more graphic and tended to scare me more than the original, but it was just strange. The trailer for that film is quite possibly the scariest I ever saw.
Another complaint is that my box case was ripped (it is only thin cardstock) and the plastic DVD case for The Omen special edition disc was also broken (the hinge will not stay together for disc 2).
(Even if you haven't seen some of the films, give it a try--it makes for a great marathon viewing!)

Great Movies... Fragile package October 18, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I really wanted to get this set from a long time ago. I loved Omen movies since I saw them so many years ago. But I really have to complain about the package. It's very fragile, I know the price is very good... but that doesn't mean they should make a fragile package for such good movies... When the movies arrived, the "box" (if u can call it that) was very damaged.
great Set... poor package
