Crappy movie, yet a good choice for Delia


I really didn't like this film, for me "The Omen" ends with Demian's death.

However, I think Asia was a great choice for playing Delia. I consider her acting was awesome and she really looked like Sam Neill.

I disagree about looking like Sam Neil. But she definitely had the evil looks to play a devil child. I think this movie could have been so much better if they expanded some things and had better music in certain scenes. Also they should have kept with the idea of Delia being the antichrist although I guess they wanted to go with a twist that didn't have the answer so seem so blatant. I say that instead of going with the twin brother just have Delia literally being the mother of Alexander like a mock Virgin Mary. She could have the egg inside her and because its supernatural and whatever it would be like its already fertilized. The doctor removes it and saves it until the time where it can be implanted in the wife(a fully mature woman who is to be the surrogate). Remember Delia gets her period at 8 so she is technically able to have kids. So in a weird way she would be like the black virgin mary to Damian reborn. And instead of it being a new child they could make it be like Alexander was literally Damian reincarnate. Like when he got older he would start having Damien's memories and stuff. So Delia in a sense would be both the daughter and mother of Damian Thorn.

I agree with you. That's exactly what I thought should've happened as well. That being said, I also agree with the OP that Delia was perfectly cast. She did a great job at making the character seem so genuinely evil that it didn't even seem as if she were acting. At times, it felt like she really was as sinister as the character herself. I've said it on here before, but I think she looks exactly Angela from the first Sleepaway Camp movie.

Damien did not die at the end of Part III. Only his physical form did.
The priest made it clear to the assassins that all 7 daggers were necessary to destroy Damien forever.

The first dagger extinguishes his physical form, the other 6 destroy his evil essence. Only 1 dagger was used on Damien.

Besides, its strongly hinted that Kate Reynolds was Delia's mom. But any female (offscreen) could have been easily. Damien got around, surely lol.

I agree about Asia Viera, she was awesome as evil Delia.

Didn't he discover America?
Penfold, shush.

Delia was perfectly cast,the rest were weak in their roles.The TV movie should of been called Delia the Devil child,and not associated with the much better Omen motion pictures.I gave it a 4 because the main points of interest were landmarks around my hometown,where it was filmed,like that mansion in Shaungessy Heights.
