A Warning in the Face of Fear

Taglines: If something frightening happens to you today, think about it. It may be a warning. It may be The Omen.

The Mystery and Fear of The Omen

Taglines: It is the greatest mystery of all because no human being will ever solve it. It is the highest suspense because no man can bear it. It is the greatest fear because it is the ancient fear of the unknown. It is a warning foretold for thousands of years. It is our final warning. It is The Omen.

Unexplained Events Demand Attention and Action

Taglines: It is too much to be an accident, too strange to be a coincidence, too frightening to be ignored.

Foretelling Danger and Imminent Threat

Taglines: Those who foretold it are dead. Those who can stop it are in grave danger.

A Warning of Impending Doom

Taglines: Good morning. You are one day closer to the end of the world. You have been warned.

The Unsolvable Mystery of Humanity

Taglines: It is the greatest mystery of all because no human being will ever solve it.

Conflict Over Dark Prophecy and Responsibility

Keith Jennings: [[bystander] Look, I want to know what he said. I have a right to know. Robert, I want to know what he said! Look, I'm not just some ]. I was the one who found him!
Robert Thorn: I'm the one who's supposed to kill him. These are knives. He wants me to stab him! He wants me to murder a child.
Keith Jennings: It's not a child!
Robert Thorn: [Throws the knives into an alley] He doesn't know that! Maybe he's wrong. He's not responsible. I won't do it!
Keith Jennings: [Looks at Robert, then walks away] Then if you won't do it, I will.

Parental Concerns and Fears About Their Child

Robert Thorn: If there were anything wrong, you'd... tell me, wouldn't you?
Katherine Thorn: Wrong? What could be wrong with our child, Robert? We're beautiful people, aren't we?
Robert Thorn: [she hugs him] There is something wrong, isn't there? Kathy. Is it so serious?
Katherine Thorn: Robert, I... I want... I need to see a psychiatrist. I... I have... fears. I have such fears.
Robert Thorn: What kind of fears? What kind?
Katherine Thorn: If I told you, you'd put me away.

Concern for Damien's Well-being

Robert Thorn: Are you sure that you don't wanna call a doctor?
Katherine Thorn: No. It's just a couple of bruises. It'll be all right in the morning.
Robert Thorn: No, I mean... for Damien.
Katherine Thorn: Oh, no, he's fine. He's... he's sound asleep.
Robert Thorn: Just... just to have him examine him.
Katherine Thorn: Well, he's perfectly all right. Never been sick a day in his life.
Robert Thorn: He never has, has he? Isn't that a little strange?
Robert Thorn: I mean, no measles or mumps or chickenpox. Not even a cough or a cold.
Robert Thorn: I just think it's a little unusual.
Katherine Thorn: Look, he's a perfectly healthy boy. I mean, we have nothing to worry about with him. Not physically or... or otherwise. He just... had a bad moment. You know, like a fright.

A New Caregiver's Approach to Grief

Mrs. Baylock: I know this is a difficult time for you, so I'll not intrude on your grief. I'm here to take away some of your troubles and anxieties. We'll soon help your little boy to forget what's happened. I'm afraid, sir, that some of our young nannies, they get homesick, or they have boyfriend problems. I left all that behind a long time ago. Well, now, if you'll let me see your boy?
Katherine Thorn: Well, yes, of course. He's upstairs. I'll show you where it is.
Mrs. Baylock: Why don't you just leave us alone at first? Let us get acquainted in our own way.
Katherine Thorn: Well, he's shy with new people.
Mrs. Baylock: Oh, no. Not with me, he won't be.
Katherine Thorn: I like her.
Robert Thorn: She seems alright.
Katherine Thorn: Where'd you find her?
Robert Thorn: Where did I find her?
Robert Thorn: I didn't find her. I assumed you found her.

A Urgent Call to Accept Faith

Robert Thorn: Yes, Father?
Father Brennan: We haven't much time. You must listen to what I have to say.
Robert Thorn: All right. What is it?
Father Brennan: You must accept Christ as your saviour. You must accept him now.
Robert Thorn: Forgive me, Father, but I understand that you have a matter of some urgent personal business?
Father Brennan: You must take communion. Drink the blood of Christ and eat his flesh. Only if he is within you can you defeat the son of the devil.
Robert Thorn: I see.
Father Brennan: He's killed once, he'll kill again. He'll kill until everything that's yours is his.
Robert Thorn: Father, would you mind...
Father Brennan: Only through Christ can you fight him. Accept the Lord Jesus. Drink his blood. I've locked the door, Mr. Thorn.
Secretary: Yes?
Robert Thorn: Would you send for a security guard?
Father Brennan: I beg you, Mr. Thorn. Listen to what I have to say.
Secretary: Ambassador Thorn?
Father Brennan: I was at the hospital, Mr. Thorn, the night your son was born. I witnessed the birth.
Secretary: Sir?
Father Brennan: I beg you.
Robert Thorn: [into the intercom; to Father Brennan] All right. Stand by. What do you want?
Father Brennan: To save you, Mr. Thorn. So Christ will forgive me.
Robert Thorn: What do you know about my son?
Father Brennan: Everything.
Robert Thorn: And what is that?
Father Brennan: I saw its mother.
Robert Thorn: You saw my wife.
Father Brennan: I saw its mother.
Robert Thorn: You're referring to my wife!
Father Brennan: Its mother, Mr. Thorn.
Robert Thorn: If this is blackmail, then come out and say it! What are you trying to say?
Father Brennan: [security guards burst into the office] His mother was a ja-
Security Guard: Everything all right, sir?
Secretary: You sounded strange. The door was locked.
Robert Thorn: I want this gentleman escorted out of here.
