The First Omen has suffered a disappointing box office opening weekend. The new horror movie is a prequel to the Oscar-winning 1976 classic The Omen, which has already spawned three sequels, a 2006 remake, and a television show. The prequel, which follows the lead-up to the birth of the Antichrist Damien Thorn, received a Certified Fresh score of 78% on Rotten Tomatoes, the first Fresh rating for the entire franchise since the original movie, which itself holds an 85% score.
