The Omen 666

Let me start off by saying that I'm not typically a horror film person. Double if it's a slasher film. I find them to be too focused on the gore and such and very very light on the production skills especially writing and acting.

But I was moved to actually check out this flick both because the original is considered a classic in the horror genre and because the supporting cast includes a trio from my list of favorite but often overlooked actors -- David Thewlis, Pete Postlethwaite, Michael Gambon. And while neither Julia Stiles nor Liev Schriber are on my list of folks I will watch even their worst movie because I am obsessed with seeing everything they are on, they are good actors who in a film with a good director and a good script generally aren't unbearable to watch.
