Whenever I talk to people about the best horror movies of 2024, I’m always quick to mention two films: Strange Darling and The First Omen. And it’s always to my displeasure to hear folks have never seen either movie. I could harp about both all day, but it’s the latter that has changed how I view an entire franchise. When I first watched The First Omen, I didn’t even realize it was a prequel until nearly an hour in, after one too many death scenes echoing the 1976 classic. By the time the credits rolled, I was ready to toss out the franchise’s third film and slot The First Omen in as the new, definitive way to watch the trilogy.
