Omen
The Omen movie was one of the most-screened horror films in the 1990s. Interestingly, the streak of “light” horror films was broadcast early in the morning, which is just after 8pm. Children’s access to horror movies was limited, but not impossible. VHS cassette rentals operated successfully, and for the owner, intrigued by the subject of selected productions, it was enough to say that he takes films for his parents. On TV, brutal screenings soaked in blood were broadcast in the latest broadcasting hours, but films such as The Omenit could be successfully watched in the early evenings. Could a little-year-old after Wieczorynka be scared of a story about a badly incarnate? Absolutely. Fortunately, I was prepared to watch such productions by my father and uncles, who watched sensational films of the 70s and 80s, regardless of the fact that a young man who had just started walking next to the car. As for Omen himself, to this day I consider the whole trilogy to be one of the best film adaptations of this type in the history of cinema. Someone may say that the set is kitschy, but let’s remember that we are talking about a 1976 film. I consider the script to be excellent. I consider the idea of subjecting the contradiction of putting an innocent being, a child, the figure of the devil into the body, absolutely brilliant. The film is partly based on the accounts of the end of the world shown in the Apocalypse of St. John, which was also used in later similar productions. Additional advantages include the moving and great performance of movie stars, such as Gregory Peck or David Warner. I absolutely recommend it. – Kamil Sawicki
