Summary: DAMIEN,
Review: DAMIEN, WHAT CAN I SAY ABOUT YOU? YOUR PURE EVIL. AND AS THIS SERIES GOES ON THE MORE EVIL YOU GET. IT'S NOT AS GOOD AS THE FIRST ONE OR EVEN THE SECOND. HOPEFULLY, THIS WILL BE THE LAST. IMAGINE DAMIEN AS PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. WHERE ELSE CAN THIS MOVIE GO

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Only Dissapointed
Review: Firstly i wanna say that, this film is the worst omen film in this series.Not too much action,not too much horror and not too much tension.This film is not to include these things.So i cant see a watchable film in the middle. This film has a few disadvantages.First one is the casts.The cast's r good but scenario's defiencies r crushing their performances in this film. And the second one is places.The places can not give a horror film tune.So that s a very big defiency in a horror film.Only the advantage is;this film carry a big name(OMEN)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: It's not THAT bad!!
Review: I don't know what people are complaining about. The 1st two "Omen" films had cheesier music and even cheesier acting than this one. "The Final Conflict" is entertaining and Sam Neill does a great job. I would've liked a little more follow-thru at the end of the film, more explainantions- but other than that I have no complaints.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Trashy fun
Review: I expected Damien the anti-Christ to be further along in his diabolical plans before he would die. Damien is just an ambassador to the UK when he is killed. Instead of bringing the world to the brink of an apocalypse, he is out fox-hunting in the English countryside. With so little of importance at stake, the "final conflict" between Damien and Christ is rather feeble and anti-climactic, like getting a Pinto when you expected a Porsche.

This is especially disappointing because the second film was setting up a plot line in which Damien's company would have a strangle-hold on the world's food supply. I was hoping for global chaos in Omen III -- food riots, revolutions, etc. Omen III briefly reminds us of what Damien's company is trying to do but then drops that plot line completely. Hence the third film does not seem to be organically connected to its predecessor. Indeed, no characters from Omen II except Damien get screen time in Omen III. It's as if with Omen III someone else took over writing the screenplay and decided to take it in a different direction.

It also is odd that Damien was supposed to be such an assiduous student of biblical prophecies but overlooked the prophecy that appears on the screen at the end of the film. What, was Damien's bible missing a few pages of Revelations?

There are some well done scenes, but this film does not measure up to the first two films. Still, it is fun in its own trashy way.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good Closure
Review: I just don't understand why you people don't seem to like this one. God, I thought Sam Neill was the perfect Antichrist, he sent shivers up and down my spine. He was everything you'd expect the Son of Satan to be: seductive, smooth, and cunning. And the last line is one my favorites in horror movies: "Nazrei, you have won... nothing".

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Damien! This is your last chance. Seice, or die
Review: I know all about this film. It's all one true hipocracy after another! just like the first two omens. Damien! How on earth had you gotten many people into watching your films? All of your films including this one are pure evil. You're never gonna win. You destroy all those who oppose you! leaving only the faithfull from amung whom arises a rival, and again and again that cycle repeats itself. You let it go on because you've forgotten the most fundamental truth! these omen films about you are from "the dark side of the heart". You inspire things that are evil in this film! such as hatred, fear, cruelty, irrassionality, sadness, isolation, horror, and most of all violence. I found fear. These are the feelings this film gave! the feelings even you feel in your moments of darkest triumph. I should not have watched this film. I ended up regretting it. Do you know what this is? Stop! in the name of love. I hope this is your last. After that there will be no more. I hope you movie fans beware this warning of this film. If you want to watch any films! make sure that it's not omen films. Otherwise you will regret it.

Summary: OMEN III Missing Footage
Review: I remember when I saw the Omen III on the movie
theater of Aruba,on the Netherland Antilles,and
I recall that in the final confrontation on the
church, Damian change his look disguised as
Mother Mary, and then He is killed by the journalist.
I recall reading time ago somewhere that this scene
was cuted on some prints (Or some countries) because
of church complaints.
Well, I must say that with this scene,the final was
much more electrifying.
Now with the cuts (In other words butchered) it seems
kind of flat in comparison.
I wonder if there is a release (At least on video)with
the complete footage somewhere.

The DVD edition has a clean picture and sound.
In my opinion Sam Neal is great as Damien,
And for the TV nostalgics, Don Gordon
(Who did great impersonations on The Untouchables,
Outer Limits and The Fugitive)
appears as Damian second bananas.
But the highlight of the picture is the score of the
late Jerry Goldsmith.
Bravo Maestro!!!

Summary: Frankly? - More beliveable than the "Left Behind" movie
Review: I saw "The Omen" on July 4, 1976, with my brother's fiance and her best friend. The movie scared - literally - the mortal hell out of me. So much that I, in pouring rain, emptied my VW of every conceivable upper, downer, laugher, screamer, etc. Now: Skip ahead 4 years: I've just gotten fired from a great, well paying modeling job, and I'm living with a Brooke lookalike. So what do we do? Yup. Go see "The Final Conflict." Sam Neill is indisputably the most frightening, insidious character in any movie I've ever seen (with the exception of that terrifying bald woman who played Satan in "The Passion"). And the scene where the priest tries to stab Damien with one of the "holy knives," and gets caught in a blazing inferno....this is one frightening film, folks. But you know what I like most about it? At the end, Jesus kicks Damien's @$$. Watch these flicks, especially the first and third (everybody says that the fourth installment ruined the integrity of the series). And I can't stop without a warning: PLEASE, folks, remember that somewhere in the world right now, whatever "Damien's" real name is, he's getting ready to start all this. We are living in the end times. You allright with The Lord?

Summary: I was suprised at the omen 3!
Review: I saw The Omen before this. The store where I rented it didn't have The Omen 2. So I got The Omen 3. Suprise! The movie is actually worth viewing. Sam Neil plays a very convincing Antichrist, and the part where the ambassador kills himself is brilliant. Two things I thought were bad was the way the movie ended so abruptly and I thought that the Anichrist could be killed by any weapon, not just by holy daggers. Great Fun!
