That was "The Omen 666", which coincidently is a remake of "The Omen" which came out in '76.

Overall it was a good movie....I enjoyed it.

It was suspenseful when it needed to be. IE: We had no idea if Doug was going to live or not after a while.

A good factor of goriness....Not too much, but not too little.

A good remake to say the least.

i thought doug was gonna die.

I thought all the characters were going to die. The tagline said "the lucky ones die first". The opening scene was friggin cool! This film made me feel rather emotionally undecided. I felt bad for what happen to the miners and their families. But then I felt satisfied when Doug started killing the freaks. I was cheering for him. 😄

LoL That's what I said to my girlfriend.....After we walked out, my friend Mike and I were saying we would have killed all the miners, we wouldn't show mercy...

So my girlfriend was like are you serious?....I was like "Does that make me a monster? That I was happy when Doug killed them all?" lol

yeh it was cool when this piece of music came on when doug kicked ass.
it was a great feelin in the cinema

If future remakes are going to be as good as this one ....then make'em!

that would only happen in the states. ridiculous. in england you have to be 18 to enter the cinema.

I saw this movie last night and it was just plain GROSS!

I do want a german shephard now 😊

anyways... the worse thing was that these 2 parents took their like 6 yr old with them to see this... that 6 yr old shouldnt being this sort of movie (in my opinion) anyways... i hate it when parents take their small kids to these kinds of movies

I definitely agree with about bringing young kids to see something like this. I really don't think little kids need to be seeing The Hills Have Eyes.

But yes, I really really loved it. I thought it was great. 🙂

I agree I wouldnt have shown mercy neither. When i first saw that guy in the chair, the one with the big melon for head all i was thinking was "hit him in the neck with the bat" and after the 2 biggest freaks fell i would check every house and take out as many as i could.

I was hoping they would show the scene when beast is ripping apart that melon head mutant freak. But there was already enough gore so it would have been pointless. I hope there will be an extended uncut DVD in the future. Maybe a Special Edition. 😄

Yeah that would be good.

I hated the music at the end, ridiculously over the top.

I thought the film was pretty poor, I preferred the storytelling in the original, alot of the subtleties from cravens story were missing and I felt they were important, but the violence and gore was more accomplished in the remake and it had a quicker pace and a more manic energy than the first, which was good.

I didnt like the mutant make up it was a bit too comedic and that dude looked exactly like Sloth from the Goonies, thats not frightening. It did have some excellent moments but was very patchy, and if i wasnt so familiar with the original I think I would have enjoyed it more.

I was surprised at the gore in it. I expected it to be goreless. It wasn't a great film but it was the only some what good re-make of a film. The Omen trailer was so stupid. Im dreading that film.

When the movie ended, I saw this little blonde head of a five or six year old kid. I was so shocked because this movie had a lot of ugly violence in it. I don't know how some parents take their kids to see this kind of movies. Btw, I liked the old version much better esp. because the acting wasn't that great in this movie. I liked the brother's acting and I guess Emilie de Ravin was fine.

I loved the remake myself, plenty of needed gore, I thought it was very great.

im so tempted to read what happens on themoviespoiler.com, but im going this weekend, and i dont want to ruin it

it was good
