The Omen Trilogy - worth the money.

Advantages: All three of the awsome omen trilogy in one box set. Nifty!
Disadvantages: none as far as I can see.

...heaven for any fan of the trilogy and, in my humble opinion, perfect to acompany a nice night in with a take away. When his baby is stillborn, Robert Thorn just can't bring himself to break the news to his belovd wife and adopts another newborn baby as a replacement. Although this might work well with small pets it doesn't work so well with children, He might have thought twice if he had realised that the childs father was Satan and the mother was ...

The Omen Pentology (Box Set)

Advantages: Fantasically shot, great value horror package
Disadvantages: Maybe a bit too focused and gory for the casual viewer

The Omen Pentology is definately a collection of top quailty horror films with convincing acting and great inovative camera techniques. That said the pentology is probably best left to the horror fans. People curious about the genre might find it a bit too focused and perhaps should start with more approachable films such as 28 days later. The films all have a different feel and angle but together form a definate collection and I would advise that ...

Has the adrenaline pumping and screams coming

Advantages: scary
Disadvantages: none

The movie The Omen is a classic and continues to be one of the best and scariest horror movies I had ever watched. There was a remake of the movie even recently with Juliya Styles but that cannot compare to the older more chilling version. Usually, in this day and age horror movie lovers are exposed to so much horror movies that the older horror movies that once scared many people don't do much in terms of scaring people now; however, once you watch ...
...of a kind actually. The movie is still being talked about; so don't be surprised when you find yourself hiding your face and shrieking in terror at several points in the movie. PLOT: It is about a couple who's adopted son turns out to be the antichrist. DVD FEATURES: Director: Richard Donner Cinema: 1976 DVD: 30 October 2006 Introduction by director Richard Donner One deleted scene Audio commentary by director Richard Donner and writer/director ...

He must DIE, Mr. Thorn!

Advantages: Brilliant Film
Disadvantages: Maybe scary for some

The Omen is probably one of the few films I ever found remotely horrifying, not because of people getting their heads chopped off or throwing themselves off buildings, but because of the thought of the devil himself (or his son) living among us. Synopsis The Thorn Corporation and family are one of the richest and most influential families in the world Robert Thirn is the newly appointed American Ambassador to The UK. But money can't buy health, ...
...all their money can't stop the baby being still born. Mr Thorn (Robert) can't bear to tell his wife that the baby is dead, so he enters into an agreement with one of the priests at the clinic; they will swap the dead baby with one born at exactly the same time in another room, whose mother was on her own and died during childbirth. What Robert doesn't know is that the priest is actually a disciple of the devil and the boy he has just handed over ...

The best movies around

Advantages: Great classic horror
Disadvantages: no price for this product

These are by far the best horror movies, they all have a great story line following the devils son from birth to adulthood, and watch out anyone who gets in his way to taking over the world. There are some quite gory bits in these films especially the first two, but they are movies that you can watch over and over again. The other good thing with the dvd's is that they have commentarys on from all the behind the scenes people and some of the things ...
