Which version of 'The Omen' are you referring to here - the original with Gregory Peck(ory) & Lee Remick, or the 2006 remake (which in my opinion is just as well made, and if anything - heresy - is better than the original)?
Anyway - academic in this context, as 'The Exorcist' is without doubt the best and most disturbing horror movie I've ever seen - 33 years later, and it still scares the poo out of me. -------------

It is strange how one's opinion can change over the years - i saw "The Exorcist" when it was first shown in 1973, and thought it was the most frightening film i had ever seen, not many horror movies interrupt my beauty sleep, but it did that night! after seeing the film recently my opinion has changed, this is more like a comedy i laughed so much at the "spinning head" scene. As for "The Omen", it is a well-constucted film i still find chilling though rather comical in places. At the weekend BBC2 showed "The Shining", no matter how many times i see this i'm still perched on the edge of my seat - Stanley Kubrick was a genius, the closest master of horror to Hitchcock, "Psycho" is still the most frightning film IMO, the mark of a masterpiece is not blood pouring everywhere like in some "horror" movies (the Shining an exception) - less, as they say, is more - leave something to the imagination! Also there is nothing more scary than reading an Edgar Allen Poe novel late at night - try it, but you won't get much sleep!!

None of the above. "Rosemary's Baby" for me all the way. The horror in it is much more creeping and subtle and slowly increases the more the movie progresses.

"but this poll is particular one

Dario Argento's "Suspiria" for me.

Friede chose a good one, an d there is only one horror movie I prefer to it. or maybe it is not even a horror movie, although the atmophere of it is as creepy as can be. and the end of it is probably the biggest shocker of all time. the movie I'm talking about is "Don't Look Now!", featuring Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie. it also includes the probably most sensuous love-making scene in a movie ever (between Sutherland and Christie); although I am not heterosexual this scene has an effect on me too, which is really saying something. addendum: I just found out that a remake of this movie is in the making and supposed to come out next year. this will most probably be a disaster -------------  A shot of me as High Priestess of Gaia during our fall festival.

None of the above. I prefer "El día de la bestia" (The day of the beast). Really scary stuff. ------------- ¡Beware of the Bee! |

Mmmh... horror. The last time my heart jumped because of a well elaborated plot was with the mentioned movie, "The day of the beast". Before that, John Carpenter's "In the mouth of madness". The exorcist is not that scary. Sickening, yes, but scary, I don't think so. I'm trying to be fare. ------------- ¡Beware of the Bee! |

The Omen, just. Both of these are classic films, and generally I dont like horror films. The Omen is probably my most watched after The Shining. I recently saw Stephen Kings mini series re-make and thought it was very poor compared to the Kubrick film which he hated by all accounts. ------------- Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy! |

Haven't seen the Omen, and both laughed my ass off and fell asleep while watching Exorcist (both of the times -_-).
So, neither.
Anyways, it's Jacob's Ladder for me if I want Intellectual religious horror.
And John Carpenter is genius, even though he seems to have lost his way in modern times.
(Halloween, The Fog, The Thing, prince of Darkness, In the Mouth of Madness.... all horror classics!) -------------

Saw both on their first release. Sneaked into the cinema to watch the Exorcist after hearing horror stories (sic) about audiences throwing up, jumping off the balcony, etc. I found it a bit shocking at the time, but it wasn't scary.
I was frightened by the Omen though - paced like a good thriller, I was on the edge of my seat when Greg Peck spears his arm on the railings while trying to get away from the dogs, and poor old Doctor Who (Patrick Troughton)....
