The Omen Movies: Release Order
The Omen franchise began with Richard Donner's 1976 masterpiece and spawned a complete trilogy following Damien Thorn's journey from a seemingly innocent child to the adult Antichrist. The series established many of the Biblical horror tropes we know today, with its memorable deaths and haunting Jerry Goldsmith score.
This watch order includes the 2006 remake starring Liev Schreiber, which retells the original story with modern sensibilities, and concludes with The First Omen (2024), a prequel that explores the dark conspiracy behind Damien's birth. Omen IV: The Awakening isn't listed here, because it was made for TV, but believe us: you're not missing out.
