Nell Tiger Free as Margaret in The First Omen.
The Big Picture Prequels continue to receive a bad rap, which unfortunately makes sense considering how weak many of them are. Sometimes a prequel will stand out and even improve upon its original, like Ti West's Pearl, but a lot of the time they will underwhelm and even prove unnecessary, like 2011's The Thing. However, the occasional phoenix will rise from the ashes, which will add to the lore as well as tell its own story.
Release Date April 5, 2024 Director Arkasha Stevenson Cast Ralph Ineson , Nell Tiger Free , Bill Nighy , sonia braga Main Genre Horror Writers Tim Smith , Arkasha Stevenson , Keith Thomas , Ben Jacoby , David Seltzer 'The First Omen' Actually Has Something to Say Stevenson's prequel film, unlike so many released, is a deeply spiritual and insightful narrative with something to say.
What Is 'The First Omen' About? The story here has all the scares and religious imagery one could ask for, but this is also a horror prequel with a brain. The protagonist in Margaret is sent to work at an orphanage in Rome, Italy before taking the veil, but she starts to realize there might be some seedy underbelly with the Catholic Church itself. This automatically makes the film timely, because it starts with the younger crowd protesting over civil and human rights.
The crux of the story derives from people turning away from the church, which, of course, is purposefully vague, since anyone can become non-religious for a number of reasons. Margaret soon encounters and seeks the help of Father Brennan , who has experience with extraordinary events and warns her of the church.
