“Look at me Damien, it’s all for you!” Those lines have become iconic in horror history thanks to The Omen, a film about a married couple whose baby is secretly swapped out with the antichrist. Unknowingly, they raise and nurture the spawn of Satan… and mysterious, horrific events begin to happen all around them. Check out our guide below to find out where to stream all six Omen films, including 2024's The First Omen.
The newest film in the franchise is The First Omen, which is a prequel that tells the story of how Damien was born and the tortured final days of the woman who was forced to birth him. Taking place in Rome (where the first movie and its 2006 remake begin) the film is set to take audiences right up to the very moment where the original story begins.
The First Omen serves as the first new film in the series in almost 20 years, with the most recent being the 2006 remake that starred Julia Stiles and Liev Schreiber. The movie premiered on June 6, 2006, making its release date 6.6.06, which helped add lots of hype to its premiere. The Omen ended up earning almost $120 million at the box office, making it the highest-grossing movie in the series so far.
Before the remake, The Omen had a series of four films that all built on a continuing plot line. The 1976 original movie follows Damien as a child. Without giving away any spoilers, the movie concludes with him finding his way into the White House, alluding that Satan will be able to carry out his nefarious plans on a widespread political level.
The 1978 sequel Damien: Omen II sees Damien, now a 12-year-old, continuing his journey through life, killing everyone who might get in his way…though sadly, this film dropped the White House plot set up in the first movie, which would have made for an absolutely wild film.
The third movie in the series was 1981’s Omen III: The Final Conflict. Damien is now an adult and played by the great Sam Neill (who many know as Dr. Grant from Jurassic Park). In the film, Damien has found his way into politics to assert his influence on a global scale as he fights to ensure the second coming of Christ can’t happen. Despite getting mixed reviews, Neill’s performance received some praise from critics and the movie earned $20 million at the box office, which wasn’t too bad for 1981.
The final film in the original tetralogy was the 1991 made-for-TV movie Omen IV: The Awakening. The movie follows a married couple who adopt a young girl, and it soon becomes clear that she’s set to become the new antichrist. As a ‘90s made-for-TV horror movie, Omen IV failed to deliver many scares or meaningful tension, thus killing off the franchise for over a decade until the reboot stirred new interest in The Omen.
