Fatima just informed me that there's going to be a remake of "The Omen", starring Liev Schrieber, Julia Stiles and Mia Farrow. The official website has a pretty interesting trailer. I'm always wary of remakes, they never seem to be as good as the original. The great thing about the original "Omen" was the feeling of impending doom that you felt throughout the movie. No special effects, no gratuitous blood and gore, all of it done with the simple art of directing. I doubt I'll watch this one in the theater, may not even see it on video, I'll probably wait til it's on cable.
You know what the spooky thing is though? The opening day is 06.06.06.
Ohhhhh.......creepy! I think I'll spend that day in church praying for our souls.

Posted by: Aleiah on May 3, 2006 09:57 AMThere are billboards all over L.A. (and probably other cities too, I'm guessing) promoting the movie.
They're black with white writing and they say "06.06.06" and then whatever the tag line is (I forget).
When they first went up, it was just the date. And then they either *had* to add something to it or they were planning on it anyways because some folks were kinda freaking out about the date.
