Trivia

20th Century Fox originally passed on the film. Warner Brothers then optioned it for development, with Charles Bail directing. When they opted to make Exorcist II: The Heretic (1977) instead, The Omen was put in turnaround.

Quotes

Father Spiletto: The child is dead. He breathed for a moment. Then he breathed no more. The child is dead. Dead. The child is dead.

When Lee Remick's character, "Katherine Thorn", falls over the upstairs railing after Damien runs into the table she is standing on, Katherine's hands keep changing positions while holding onto the vertical rail posts. Her hands are next to each other in one scene, and then they are a post apart in another, and back and forth.
