THE OMEN (1976)

Since The First Omen is currently terrorizing theaters, we thought it would be a good time to do the first Omen, aka The Omen 1976 with Gregory Peck as a father finding out his adopted son may just be the Antichrist. Here we talk about the film's lasting effects, the similarities and differences to The Exorcist, the various outfits of Robert Thorn, and even a connection to Halloween 6? We're also drinking Hoof Hearted Brewing's Duke of Ripstick Super Party Pale Ale!
