‘Omen III: The Final Conflict’
Aw, Damien’s all grown up—and now he’s Sam Neill. Specifically, he’s hunky 33-year-old Sam Neill, who makes his US feature film debut in this horror/thriller about the Antichrist’s ascension to power in the American government and a cabal of monks’ attempt to murder him. Sure, the film’s mostly hit or miss, but it does deliver on the exact thing you want during the month of October: Sam Neill being frighteningly dashing while chewing scenery. Oh—and don’t think too hard about how a character that was a kid in the first Omen film in 1976 is a full-grown man in 1981.
