And no, I'm not saying that simply because of the content.
I can stand a bad movie. But at least try and make it credible. This one is an insult to any parent's intelligence.
Standard variation of "The Omen", where Little Nicky is once again a highly precocious, Rainman-type of savant (in this case, the kid can speak full sentences backwards). Eventually, household animals turn up dead or impaled...but the adults in the film simply brush them off as "children learning to experiment with death". I don't know about y'all, but in my world, forking your guinea pig onto a fence post while it's squealing to death would've warranted a referral to a child psychologist for pre-sociopathic tendencies. Just saying.
Naturally, Mom is the only one scurrying around and noticing her child is different. Of course, her theories are unsupported by all, and eventually dad, aunt and everyone else tries to gaslight her. Predictably, they're all in on it. And while all this occurs, her child continues to assault Mom or whisper creepy, foreboding sentences without penalty. Death looms all around as people jump to their deaths and whatnot, but the little Devil-kid never reacts. Any one of our parents would've slapped the sh$t out of us for the half the stuff this kid does...but alas, as Satan's spawn...everything he does is dismissed.
Cheaply-made film...ridiculous and overdone concept. I don't know about you guys, but I turned this mess off before it even ended.
