Bret M. @BretM-3 Apr 20 SPOILER ALERT I quite enjoyed this movie. It has the same dark, moody aesthetic of the movie The Changeling, but this movie didn’t feel as slow to me. Very early on, we’re already starting to see paranormal happenings. I also think this movie has some great kills. The priest kill is great and so is the Photographer’s. I also just love the premise of the film. The creepy demon child has been done before, but it still felt unique in a way I can’t describe. I also liked the ending. Not only the twist reveal that Damien lived, but also ending on a Bible Verse that is, essentially, what the whole movie is based on. So yeah, I like this movie quite a bit. Like previously stated, I REALLY enjoyed the dark, moody, gothic tone that the movie carries. Definitely worth watching!!

The soundtrack is absolutely insane and does so much heavy lifting—super haunting and memorable. The imagery and atmosphere never lose you, and as a fan of Richard Donner, it’s no surprise he delivers something this polished. Sure, it’s pretty predictable by today’s standards, but that doesn’t take away from how well it’s made. It’s pure craftsmanship, from the pacing to the performances. Not the scariest anymore, but still deeply effective and iconic. Definitely worth the watch if you’re into classic horror with style and substance.

Gregory Peck delivers a restrained yet powerful performance, while the film’s ominous tone and iconic music elevate its unsettling themes. Decades later, it remains a chilling and influential classic that proves true horror lies in what you fear, not what you see.

Wonderfully acted and well written this movie kept me on edge and gave me an eerie feeling from start to finish. I first saw this movie when I was 9 years old and it stayed with me a lifetime. Now that I am 60 years old it's even scarier. Watch it with the lights off if you dare. The best movie in the franchise in my opinion. It was remade in 2006 and spawned three sequels and then a legacy sequel a couple years back. This is by far the best of them all.
