The First Omen, like so many latter day spin offs, of well respected franchises, fails to understand what made the original films so successful. I well remember the original Omen film and how it held me. Its intricate story, which chillingly displaced a sense of normalcy with a e ....

Why does the modern horror community settle for such mediocrity in film making? Don't be so lazy and settle for the usual unfulfilling, stereo typical Hollywood dreck such as this. There are so many fantastic indie horror movies being made out there.
