Dread Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 Annie talks a lot and then Damien summons a dog or a bear to eat her. End of meeting. Plus, Omen is infinitely better than Misery. No question and if you do question that, then your taste in movies sucks. I will give it to the ankle scene but that's basically all that movie has besides some crazy ranting. It's all for you, Damien. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 Damien is my namesake. I have zero choice in this matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James D. Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 The original Omen is my favorite horror movie ever. Easy choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 Annie talks a lot and then Damien summons a dog or a bear to eat her. End of meeting. I was going to vote Annie, but then you bring up that. Damien wins. The nanny scene, and the bit with the tricycle are great, Annie may be mad, but she can't be the son of the devil.

dc20willsave Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 I voted Annie here mainly since Damien in the first film and a half just looks cute and precocious and bad things just happen to happen to the people around them. He's a very inactive villain that, outside of the incident of with the tricycle, isn't very active until he becomes aware of what he is and then he becomes pretty much a standard villain.

Stavros Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 It's interesting how you interpreted the Omen, I saw Damien as a fairly active villain just not in obvious ways. I never really got from that film that he didn't know who he was, and hadn't seen later films where that was established (it seems like a disservice to the character). One of the great things about the Omen is how much of a blank slate Damien is to everyone, it's extremely hard to know what he's thinking, so I just assumed he knew exactly what and who he was. That's why he did the things he did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 Annie gets my vote. One, mostly of my belief that she should make it past the first round. Two, because I don't actually like Damien all that much. And three, Kathy Bates is fuckin' awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
