The First Omen takes us back into the world of Damian in a prequel to the 1976 horror movie classic. Starring Nell Tiger Free, it tells the story of an American woman who is set to Rome as she begins her service to the church. And in the terrifying official trailer, we get a taste of the way that a darkness present in the church twists her about and makes her question her own faith.
For fans of Free, this just follows her ability to creep viewers out, especially after her work on Servant. And for fans of The Omen, this movie already has hints of the original, noted by fans. This hints at the appreciation the creators had for the original and how you might have to do a rewatch before hitting the theaters to check out this movie.
