Gruesome gynohorror prequel to 1976’s satanic masterpiece The Omen

Directed by Arkasha Stevenson. Starring Nell Tiger Free, Ralph Ineson, Bill Nighy, Maria Caballero, Nicole Sorace, Sonia Braga, Tawfeek Barhom.and that is simply – what? What possible story can there be left to tell about the birth of the Antichrist? The conception?

But what Stevenson has created as director and co-writer isn’t simply a worthy precursor to the series. It’s quite possibly the most gruesome horror to be released by a major studio in decades. This isn’t just blood or some entrails , but some astonishingly shocking and graphic imagery. This feels like something crafted by the stronger stomachs at one of the more underground production houses, given a studio budget, and blessed with an aggressively cunning and disturbing script.
