...the moment The Final Conflict turns to dialogue and a plot, it loses its inspiration.

The bad news is that Damien has a whole movie to get through before he gives up the ghost, and that the movie is a grisly one.

Neill is fire and brimstone incarnate, but he can't seem to seal the deal.

The gas had pretty much run out of the Omen franchise by the time of this second sequel, and yet THE FINAL CONFLICT is quite an interesting film ...

The Omen III is a decent demonic thriller, but it's not the Beelzebub's knees.

The third best of the Omen films, but still a satisfying conclusion to a great trilogy.

An awesome horror movie in the Omen series, one of my favourite movies, I highly recommend it if you liked the other two.

The Final Conflict had the potential to be a very strong, redeeming film over the bad second one, instead it's the worst sequel as of yet to the original Omen. I can give props however to Sam Neil to portray Damien Thorn effectively, but unfortunately his incredible acting ability doesn't even salvage this terrible
