I still have never seen the Omen (although now I really want to), but the sequel was constantly being played on cable when I was a kid, and there are some images that really stuck with me, like when he doesn't allow anyone to fix his hair and expose the 666 tattooed on his scalp. O_O
Probably it was because I knew it featured an all-powerful kid who gave malevolent death glares and I very much aspired to be one of those as a child.
AHHAHAHAHAAAHAA. ♥ I was the same way ... oh, those childish fantasies of power! And I love that you mispronounced "Omen." I think many kids who read a lot grow up with a vocabulary of words they never learned how to pronounce correctly. I still screw up some words on a daily basis. :D
