A child that will steer humankind down the road to hellfire has been born, and as his evil flourishes in a world full of hate, the ominous Biblical prophecies slowly begin falling into place in director John Moore's remake of Richard Donner's 1976 horror classic. Robert (Liev Schreiber) and Katherine Thorn (Julia Stiles) were as loving parents as any young boy could ask for, but as fate would have it, their new son Damien is far from the typical child. Now, as the mysterious boy's growth begins to share frightening parallels with the Biblical passages detailing the rise of the Antichrist, and the lives of all who seek to reveal his true nature are cut gruesomely short, Robert and Katherine are forced to face the horrifying prospect that their child has been sent from Satan to hasten the fall of modern civilization, and that there is little they can do to curb his prophesied path of ultimate destruction. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    If you saw the original with Gregory Peck then it may not be worth your time to see this updated version. The film was basically the same just modernized with a few twists.

    Completely unnecessary remake. They followed the original almost line for line...although the decapitation scene was much cooler in this one. That, and the kid was too creepy. I don't mean that I was scared of him... one of the things that made the original so great was that the only reason why you were afraid of the kid was because of what you suspected, but otherwise, the kid was completely normal and kind of cute. In this one, he's all pale with red rimmed eyes...he just looks like an evil little bastard, and that detracts from the movie overall.

    This was a great remake of a classic--hard to do. It was great watching my kids jump out of their skin! Movies now take the fun out it....it's all blood and bones. Look in Damien's eyes. That's horror!! Classic!
