the omen has never been my cup of tea but this is great news for fans it will be interesting to see what art work they do for the box set.

[The Lion King]

Looks pretty cool. Although I hated the original Omen - not one single scary scene.

[BR7]

I love these 70's horror flicks.You cant beat that music and the 70's feel.The Omen (1976) ranks right up there with the Exorcist in the classic horror rankings.I didn't think to highly of that remake

i took me 3 times before i was able to see the remake from start to finish. i turned it off halfway through on dvd , fell asleep when i tried to watch it on blu ray after buying it then finally sat through it.

I don't see why the remake should come in the set since it's outside the continuity of the other 3 - but I'll still most likely pick up the set. The original is a classic, and I remember at least one of the sequels not being half bad.

Maybe Fox doesn't own the rights to Omen IV anymore.

more likely. thanks

[GoBlu08]

I only want the original omen the rest were not so great. Hope the put that one out as a single.

pigs arse

the original Omen, like The Exorcist is an enduring classic

Gregory Peck, Lee Merrick in fact the whole cast in the original knew how to act

the recent re-make is a farce made for the mindless and tasteless teens spawned in the MTV generation

ive seen cardboard cut outs put more heart in a performance

why couldn't those elements have burned...

[NoQuestion]

September is shaping up nicely with the Horror movies. Here's hoping we see more coming from the other studios.

[OokieSpookie]

This is awesome.
Hopefully this goes well enough to inspire them to give the Exorcist the same treatement.

Thanks for the in-depth review.

[Scooby Blu]

I love the first two movies. The scene In Omen 2 when Damion is arguing with the schoolmaster is priceless !

[owa]

Nice! The first one is definitely my favorite of the bunch but I enjoyed the others as well.

Agree completely

[quirkmanly]

I'm only really itching to get the original Omen, so I will have to wait for news on that, although If I could get the set for a reasonable price I would probably spring for it.

Being from London/Surrey originally, so many of the locations in the Omen are familliar and it definitely adds some resonance to the film for me.

Great movie.
