In The First Omen, a young American woman–sent to Rome to start a life of service to the church–encounters “a darkness that makes her question her faith, and leads her to uncover a terrifying conspiracy that hopes to bring about the birth of evil incarnate.”
The Omen–directed by Richard Donner from a screenplay by David Seltzer–stars Gregory Peck and Lee Remick, and follows an American ambassador who believes his five-year-old son is the Antichrist.
