Arkasha Stevenson definitely entered my list of Directors to look out for

Man the praise for Nell Tiger Free is beyond wonderful to hear, because she is a very underappreciated young actress. Caught my eye in Too Old To Die Young and been a fan ever since... and to hear how good she is and how good the film is, is a breath of fresh air.

To answer the quote, the original Omen was a small phenomenon that had people terrified of the concept of a devil child. There is a documentary regarding its pop culture effect in the bluray version of the (1976) feature. The first film is also really good.

Knowing that its a prequel to a movie that's 48 years old at this point with tagline in the poster confidently saying that it is "the most terrifying movie of the year", it's honestly quite shocking that it has been getting a strong positive buzz, but hey good for them 😂

Saw it tonight! I thought it was absolutely incredible. Let's just say a certain shot in the first part of the movie (where a woman has her legs wide open and something is coming out) and it cuts to black.... the ENTIRE audience just audibly had a different reaction. It was awesome

Saw it last night. The word masterpiece gets thrown around a lot but this flick is damn close. One of the best prequels ever made and just an incredible horror film in every regard. Huge and welcome surprise.

Totally agree! At one point I realised that Gregory Peck should appear at the end… and was worried we might get a CGI version. So relieved they went for the photo in the file option. I was also blown away at how much the cinematography looked like a 1970s film

The First Omen and Monkey Man have almost the exact same poster, and I find that extremely amusing.

I enjoyed it more than Immaculate. Looking forward to your Monkey Man review, loved it.

Glad to have this films quality confirmed. I saw the trailer in theaters and was really impressed but didn't want to get my hopes up too high. Doubly excited now and booking a ticket for tomorrow.

I got extremely and also weirdly excited when I saw the trailer a few months ago at the cinema, the cinematography looked extremely careful, very detailed and also very creepy. It looked very atmospheric and genuinely creepy, which is very rare. The composition, the music, the sound design, the way the trailer was presented really caught my my attention, I looked it up immediately and saw that it was a relatively small movie with no ratings and that it hadn’t come out. I’ve been waiting for it ever since with some suspicion but also excitement to see what it really is about. Your review confirmed my suspicion and my thoughts around the movie, so now I’m going to go watch it very excited and eagerly. Great review Chris as per usual, loved it.

'This film was 666 times better than I thought it was going to be!' I see what you did there Chris!

I've been watching Stuckman videos since he was in his bedroom with the Batman posters. Guys he literally started off reviewing movies in his bedroom. There is nothing creepy about what I said. Unless you are not an og subscriber and don't know what I'm talking about.

You mentioning Possession aka one of my favourite movies, hyped this movie up for me soooooo much!!!!

You are the 4th online critic I follow who has said pretty much the same thing. Thanks, Chris. I'm sold!

I had that no expectation turning to awe moment for a couple of films. Shawshank Redemption, Ususal Suspects and Dusk Till Dawn. I saw all those on sneak preview showings. I had no idea what would be on, no idea what those films were, so it's a perfect surprise. I try to preserve that magic by checking out no trailers, sometimes just looking at the thumbnails you guys on KZfaq provide for your reviews. This film is now on my must-see list. I hope to have forgotten everything you said when I go see it.

I love the Omen trilogy, these are among my favorite horror movies so was not initially thrilled to hear a prequel was made - but your review of it has made me at least curious. I might go watch the original first though, just to get that dark feeling back. Thanks man, great job as always!

Hey Chris! Just wanted to say I absolutely love your reviews. Your channel is one of my top all-time favorites on KZfaq. Your videos are so joyful and exciting - exactly what I enjoy. Big thanks from a fan in Spain! 🤩

Thanks Chris for your honest reviews. So far your reviews been on point.

There was a tv show called Damien that was on A&E I believe, wish that never got cancelled. It was a good twist on The Omen!

I just got home from watching it and my whole theater was audibly gasping at certain scenes (especially THAT one) and the jump scares were well done. Scares aside I really enjoyed the story and watching it unfold. It found a way to respect the original film while expanding on it. All the actors brought their A game to the movie and that brought the terror home like few other horror films have. Go watch it !

Same exact experience. Went in with no expectations. Left completely blown away. Great horror and by far my favorite Omen film!

This and Alien: Romulus are the first time I’ve been excited for horror movies in years! I’m working on watching the original Omen for my first time, and I’m really looking forward to seeing the rest and then hopefully The First Omen back to back! What a great year for surprise movies so far!!!!

This wasn’t even on my radar of movies to watch this year but definitely going to check it out now after seeing this review. Thank you! 💪🏽

Crazy how it was the trailer shown before Late Night with the Devil, that sold me on the film. It looked so good... Then I saw the title of the film, and was surprised that it was an Omen movie trailer. I had high hopes just from the trailer and I'm so happy to hear the positive receptions!

What a masterpiece. Performance, directing, cinematography, music, lighting, etc.... I couldn't stand up after the movie.

It has Bill Nighy, Ralph Innesin, and Charles Dance in it by the looks - some powerhouse British talent... So im sold already

Hey @ChrisStuckmann when will Shelby Oaks release? Looking forward to that!

Chris, I will never see another movie again without reading your review first. You are awesome analyzing films. Keep up the great work!!!

Looking forward to this one Chris! Great review.

everytime in like last 2 weeks when i see that you have posted new review im hoping it is The Late Night with the Devil, can't wait to see it and hear what do you think of it

I’m seeing The Omen tonight! Thank you for an awesome review!

Thanks for the review,Chris!Planning to see it last week but I didn't want to see it without seeing your review first..Omen 1 is such a classic favorite of mine, glad to know the prequel is good. Will watch it omorrow!

Looking forward to this now! Still can't believe you haven't reviewed Late Night with the Devil yet though

Delighted to hear this! Will get my lady to watch the original with me (really fucked me up as a kid) and this prequel.

I never clicked so fast. It means for me, Chris is the truth.

The movie was creepy and scary and intense as fuck fans of Richard donners classic won’t be disappointed

Saw it last night and I feel the exact same way. I was expecting it to be okay, and I was absolutely blown away. This movie deserves more recognition.

Surprised u haven’t reviewed Late night with the Devil , I’ve been waiting on u to do that one

I am a huge fan of Servant and obviously a large part of that was Nell Tiger Free's performance so I am super stoked and happy for her that The First Omen is getting great reviews.

I was curious but you have made me quite intrigued to check it out. Well put.

Stuckman interior monologue: “Thank God I’m able to review this.”

Thanks for letting me know about 35mm. Got tickets for that!

Chris when is your movie coming out ! Cant wait to watch it ! I hope it is screened world wide.

wait a sec Stuckman, did you indeed say it was six hundred and sixty six times better than expectations? very nice affectation there! 🤘 i salute you sir!

Hey Chris, can we have some updates on shelby oaks?

Well well, this is surprising, and Chris's review is very reminiscent of when he reviewed Hereditary. Can't wait to see this. Thanks!

Always enjoy your reviews mate, thanks. Peace and Love

Man, I didn't expect to like this movie so much! It made me feel so tense I actually wanted to leave the cinema at some point! 😂 There's so much to love about this, absolutely creepy, glad we're getting so many great horror movies this year.

2:04 I was wondering where I'd seen her before. She was brilliant in Servant!

phenomenal movie! I watched it today and I mist confess it is so much better than I expected. The actress who plays Margaret did a superb job! 5 stars.

Saw it late last night, and I was floored by how excellent it is.

I don't normally do horror films, but I did see the original on the t.v when I was a little kid back in the 1980s, and it scared me to tears, so based on this review, I'm going to give it a watch.

Thanks for the Review, my dude!

In The Omen (1976) movie, wasn't Damien born from a Jackal (a dog)?

Glad this is getting good reviews. I’m getting Possession vibes as well from the performance. So happy studios are starting to release suspense and story are more important than loud sounds and jump scares.

Would love to hear your opinion on late night with devil

Question does it help to see the original Omen before this movie? Or am I fine watching it after? Sometimes gets tricky with prequels.

Btw long time fan Chris love everything you do man! You’re a legend 🔥

Going to the theater to see this tomorrow, im so pumped for this film!

that scene in the Bad Room .... holy shit man

Please do more feature presentations!!!

Okay. I’m definitely checking this one out. But I’m surprised you haven’t done Late Night with the Devil yet.

Saw the movie in theaters twice , absolutely one of the most carefully made horror films ,, the director really put an effort to capture exquisite details !! Acting is brilliant in some scenes ,, the director again definitely respected the actors abilities and expressions ,, it was perfect ,, soundtracks and cinematography were on spot !!

Chris, you have to watch Late night with the devil if you havent already. It is a very creative, well done horror movie. Best horror movie ive seen in a while

Loved the whole production, director, DOP, casting, art direction etc. This is a real good one. As a major horror fan and fan of The Omen, I haven't been impressed by any movie in a while. Nell Tiger Free and Ralph Ineson, who I loved in the Witch, are really amazing actors.

Sitting in the theater right now waiting for it to start. It’s been a while since I’ve seen a good horror movie at the theaters. Pumped!

You have 2.04M subscribers. I tend to trust your judgement and respect your appraisals. I have been a 'fan' of The Omen since before you were born. You had better be bloody right on this because your review is the only reason I'm going to give this flick eyeballs. (if you're wrong, one of your 2.04 is going to be mighty miffed off with you Mr Stuck.)

Chris always nails it so Im gonna go. Thanks again!

The first Omen us right next to the Omen. Watch these back to back. Love it!

I'm so impressed with the lead. That scene after the car? I heard that the director whispered in her ear before filming that to freak them the f out. And she did. People were walking off set

The room mate Luz. What a transformation into pure evil she became. If they make a sequel. I truly hope they bring her back.

I saw it yesterday and I will say it is one of the best horror movies I have ever seen! I had no expectation’s and being a fan of the original. The First Omen did it Justice. You are right. The last 20 minutes were sheer dread and I was absolutely shocked they went the direction they did. I’m sure you know what I mean. I absolutely want to see this again this week and Whoever played Father Brennon did an amazing job. I truly hope they continue the story some how. We deserve more of this amazing story to move forward somehow. I can’t say enough how much I loved it and will say. They did a legendary actor right in the end. So glad it was incorporated!

Will you make a review for Frozen empire? Would love to hear your thoughts about it ! 🎉

Please do more feature presentation, please keep it continue

never would have paid 2 see this BUT after your positive review gave it a chance and I am glad I did. Your review is spot on and very accurate. Thanks for the opinions and your brilliant analysis. I loved it!!!

thanks chris, wouldnt have seen this film without seeing that you posted a vid on it.

I saw this movie before looking at your review and I have to admit that you were spot on and the first omen definitely stands side by side with The Omen

For a long time I stopped caring about horror movies but this was absolutely fantastic and very different! I enjoyed the ending and there were a lot of great scenes that were just shot beautifully! This and immaculate have been sooo good!!

I saw the original Omen in the late 1970s (yes, I'm old) and went to see this one on the basis of your review. I enjoyed it and thought it was very confidently crafted and well played by all of the actors. Without spoiling anything, the only thing I noticed was that it turned a major plot twist in the 1976 movie on its head. But, I think they can logic it through if they make any more movies with these characters.

Did you ever review ‘Possession’? Frederic Tuten the co-writer was my creative writing teacher in college

I wasn't planning on watching this bc it seem to me another one of those films with a lot of jump scares. But I hv been seeing a lot of good reviews on this one and hearing you praise the movie now makes me want to watch it, I trust your reviews bc I find my taste in movies similar to yours 😄 now I'm looking forward to watching this, probably this weekend. Looking forward to Monkey Man review nxt

That possessed scene was Perfect . I honestly don’t know how she did it 😂

When are you reviewing Possession (1981)?

100% agree. Nell Tiger Free ABSOLUTELY should be nominated for best actress but she never ever will its so sad

Possession was mentioned. This is already high praise.

1:22 how I felt about “talk to me”. definitely gonna be adding this to the watch list.

This movie is such a great companion piece/ prequel. It matches the tone and aesthetic of the original but still has modern touches and some nice atmospheric scares. And Nell is fantastic as Margaret! Was very pleasantly surprised at how good it was

I saw it tonight and loved it! Was generally freaked out- so well done and belonged well next to the Gregory Peck Omen movie years ago! I want to see it again! 😊

Wow, was not expecting this review from this film, but it’s awesome to hear. ~_~

After Exorcist: Believer I thought I'd wait to see the reviews for this one and now I'm kicking myself for it, would have loved the feeling of realizing that I was watching a well made film

One of the scariest movie theater experience I’ve had in a while.

The director really did her homework, and the cast did a really good job I also loveed the twist I wasn’t expecting that

This is honestly a relief to hear.

your synopsis is the feeling i got from the trailer.. maybe this will break the mold and be one of the only horror movies that wins an academy award..

I did not expect to love this movie so much. She deserves all the awards.

Do I have to see the others before seeing this one I haven't seen the others but I wanna see this one

The soundtrack was amazing… the cast amazing… the script was amazing… you’ll hear voices throughout the movie 😅 and leave the theater wanting a sequel.

Thanks for the review! Taking my wife out on a rare date away from the kids and wasnt sure if this was going to be would be worth our time and money.

What did you think about " Late night with the devil "?
