THE OMEN feat. Cait Dohmeier
from The Shame List Picture Show Hosted by Someone's Favorite Productions
Welcome back to the Shame List Picture Show. In this episode, we’re diving deep into The Omen, joined by the insightful Cait Dohmeier. Cait brings more than just fandom to the table. With a BA in History and Religious Studies from Alverno College, an MA in Catholic Theology and Ministry from Catholic Theological Union, and ongoing graduate work in Library and Information Sciences with a focus on Youth Literature at Dominican University, she offers a rich, informed perspective on horror, history, and theology. Together, we don’t just discuss Richard Donner’s The Omen; we examine it through a theological lens. How accurate is its portrayal of religious themes? What anxieties was it tapping into? You’ll have to listen to find out. And the discussion doesn’t stop there. We also explore John Moore’s 2006 remake, The Omen, and Arkasha Stevenson’s 2024 prequel, The First Omen, for a full look at this enduring horror franchise. Three films. One antichrist. Plenty to unpack.
