Omen II is genuinely poignant.

Damian is a very easy film to recommend or decline. If you liked The Omen, this is a welcoming exception to the rule that "second parts are never good." [Full review in Spanish]

...when it's not killer, Damien: Omen II really is all filler...

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 30, 2021

It is a handsome looking movie. Holden, with his craggily intelligent face, has reached the point in his career where he virtually can do no wrong.

The most underrated film in the franchise.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 19, 2019

The film's coherence diminishes its effectiveness and end goal: to scare at any given cost. [Full Review in Spanish]

While it has its problem it's a generally entertaining and creepy thriller.

Damien is obviously wearing out his welcome.

...comes off as a surprisingly organic follow-up to its 1976 predecessor...

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Oct 31, 2008

As the teenage Damien, Jonathan Scott-Taylor works wonders with the role

... the worst of the original Omen trilogy.

This sequel lacks the bravura pacing of the original, and though it tries to maintain the biblical tone in following the adolescence of its antichrist anti-hero, immense problems emerge.

| Aug 16, 2007

It plumbs the same idiotic religious dread as its 1976 predecessor, with a higher and even more gratuitous body count.

| Original Score: D | Jun 24, 2006

Not a great film like the original, but this remains a wildly entertaining sequel full of memorable death scenes.

If only most sequels were this good.

Damien-Omen II though it's as foolish as the first film, is rather more fun to watch and sometimes very stylish-looking.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 9, 2005

Proves once and for all that the love of sequels is actually the root of all evil.
