We rented
The Omen remake. The first scare made me almost swallow my tongue. The second scare made me slap my hands on my head so hard, I gave myself a head ache. The scares were GOOD! But, there was only really two big scares, the character development wasn't so good, the movie could have been scarier and creepier, and it was just a little too slick and Hollywood.
Things I liked: Creepy Mia Farrow. She is creepy even in real life, but even more so in this movie. There's just something that isn't right about her.
Pete Postlethwaite is one of my favorite actors, and I liked him in this.
David Thewlis is great, too, and, strangely, we watched part of Naked a couple nights ago on TV, in which he's brilliant. The kid who plays Damien is super creepy.
