The Omen

Katherine and Jeremy Thorn are a wealthy, older American couple in the political limelight. Katherine is pregnant and, while in Italy, gives birth to an ostensibly stillborn boy, a fact that is kept from her. Knowing how much his wife wanted the baby and the difficulty that she had in conceiving, Jeremy agrees to have the dead baby supplanted by a living newborn whose mother died in child birth, keeping this information from Katherine. They name this baby Damien. All goes well for the prosperous Thorn family, until Damien's fourth birthday, when all hell breaks loose. A series of dramatic, unusual events begin to occur around the Thorns, all seemingly stemming from Damien. Well-guarded by a self sufficient, yet decidedly creepy nanny, there are those who would believe him to be the Antichrist. By the time that Katherine and Jeremy begin to realize who Damien may truly be, their lives are out of control. With the aid of an inquisitive photographer, a repentant priest, and an archaeologist who holds the key to the destruction of the Antichrist, Jeremy Thorn becomes a man with a mission. Will Damien let him complete that mission?
