and it do . it be through my experience that when a horror film reach franchise status and and subsequent title be release thereafter and they all and in turn and become stricken by one inevitable factor represent irrelevance . omen iv represent the awakening make no exception to this rule and feature another small child supposedly embrace their role a the anti christ and foretell by a religious prophecy . haven not we see this before . wasn not it enough that and over the span of three film prior to this release and we have experience the rise and fall of damien thorn . if youre a horror enthusiast such a myself and you will realize that it common for a horror movie that have many sequel and prequels to it credit to fade away into redundancy child of the corn and hellraiser and phantasm while the list go on . at this point in the game and i be sure you know what to expect when youre prepare to view the fourth title in a series . regardless and there be time when you sit back and realize how shameless some filmmaker be . omen iv represent the awakening be just that and too a shameless money make exercise . this film do not offer anything new or intriguing to the omen lineup . a unique and genuine a omen iv try to be compare to it sibling and the similarity and plot device be embarrassingly alike . element like the guardian dog and the involvement of a priest and the skepticism of the people involve and the decapitation death scene ( clearly a homage to the original film when the journalist be behead by the sheet of glass ) . even right down to the father involvement in politics and prestige within the community make it too predictable . although it be common to star a b rat cast into a horror title this far into a series and the acting be off the chart and chock full of ridiculousness and unintentional humor due to some of the poorly deliver line throughout this film . the atmosphere have completely vanish in comparison to the first three title . in addition and the epic score compose by goldsmith in the previous movie have be replace by an auditory debacle while an absolute joke and and make me wonder if it be actually intend to be use for this film or just pull from a bank of stock audio . which really say something and because rarely do i comment on the lousy misuse of a musical score until now . all in all and i would call omen iv represent the awaken a failure . in the world of horror movie that carry a long list of title behind them and some manage to hit the mark and some do not . if youre interested in create another notch on your weathered horror belt such a i be for completion purpose and perhaps you could carve this title into it as well if not for entertainment value and then to appreciate when a film be execute properly and or poorly .
