(Real missed opportunity on the studio’s part to wait and release the film on 6/6/24 (2+4=6!

And, if I’m being honest, better than the originalThe Omen.

Here’s what I thought while watching it…

1.

Person in a long coat standing in a dimly lit room with candles and a portrait on the wall

20th Century Studios

I am digging the 70saestheticchoices between the font and the look of the film.

Ooh, a young Father Brennan!

Creepy photo of a baby with some nuns and a priest; nothing unsettling about that.

Nell Tiger Free as Margaret wearing a nun's habit

Scianna If youve seen the original film, this name should mean a lot to you.

I have no idea whats going on in this flashback, but its all pretty unsettling and icky.

Oh, I just KNOW were about to get a classicFinal Destination-style death in a second arent we?

Two people style a woman's hair on a film set, with lighting equipment in the background

(Dont you just love thatThe Omenfilms were basicallyFinal DestinationbeforeFinal Destination?!)

Once again, appreciate all the 70s styling of this film to really set the tone.

Bill Nighy as a Catholic cardinal was not on my 2024 bingo card.

Man in priest attire with intense gaze, standing outdoors. Identifying individuals is against current guidelines

Civil unrest in Rome?

Young people, fed up with the old ways?

I sense some foreshadowing.

A woman in a black coat stands in a crowded 1970s-style train station with military personnel around

Never trust a nun in a movie…unless it’sSister Act.

Nothing chill about this orphanage.

Seeing sister Anjelica framed in the stairs like she’s being eaten alive is a BOLD choice.

Character in nun attire with solemn expression, part of a scene in a film

(And I like it.)

LOL, also never trust a child who makes creepy drawings in movies…

19.

…especially if that child is named Carlita Scianna.

Hands holding a child's drawing of four figures

For real though, why is it that kids in horror films always make creepy drawings?

I literally trust none of the nuns in this orphanage.

As should Margaret IMHO.

Four people in dark attire lying on the floor around a bright line, creating a dramatic shadow pattern

Why is this bedroom so unsettling?

That dress hanging on the wall is 10000% gonna cause a jump scare.

Luz is trouble, I already know it.

Three women in sequin dresses reflected in a mirror; two look at viewer, one at her reflection

But maybe, like, fun trouble?

Like, shes either going to be the best roommate ever or totally backstab Margaret.

Take the veil, is such an ominous-sounding phrase.

Close-up of a distressed woman with wet hair adhering to her face

I didnt realize nuns could have such horny conversations, like, openly?

LOL, poor Margaret having to play wingman basically.

Luz is seriously channeling Lady Gaga in that blonde wig.

Man in a dark room speaks with expressive hand gestures, seated with visible concern

Looks like someone had a good night out.

Little girls: Whats wrong?, Margaret (in her head): I am hung-overrrrr.

Welp, this movie wins for one of the most effed-up birthing scenes ever.

Dark room with people in cloaks standing solemnly by stone walls, tapestries in the background

I would literally never haha.

IDK how no one finds this nun highly suspicious.

It’s definitely an inappropriate drawing.

medical tools for a birth

Father Brennan coming in with the exposition dump.

I should’ve seen this reveal coming WAY earlier, but… !

I have a question where does one get a jackal?

Especially one that looks like that?

Like… that’s not normal jackal.

Can you even imagine getting this kind of news?

Like, sorry, youre pregnant with the Antichrist?

There’s no Hallmark card for that.

I legitimately think the driver is suspicious.

Nell Tiger Free is NOT messing around.

Give this girl all of the awards!

Not to be that person, but that is NOT what happens in a C-section.

An interesting twist I was not expecting… what does this mean?

But what about the jackal?

I still have questions!

Guess were pulling aRogue Onewith this movie (and I like it).

Seems like a bit of retcon going on here.

But I guess why not setup for a whole new series, right?

That was legitimately better thanThe Omen.
