I can't sleep because I can't stop laughing. (Also because I haven't adjusted to setting the clocks forward yet, probably). Anyway, someone at XFinity has a sense of humor. Damien: Omen 2 is on their menu of free movies, and the little caption they gave it says "A couple sends the Antichrist to military school." I'm lying here in the dark, cracking up. What a great description. "Honey, let's send the Antichrist to military school! What could go wrong?" Then, later on, after a shitload of carnage: "Well, it seemed like a good idea at the time."
Anyway, that cracked me up.
It is interesting, by the way, that Omen 2 was clearly trying to send the franchise in the direction of a militaristic Damien fucking up the world via armies and war. Someone must have changed their mind between Omen 2 and Omen 3, because in the third one he wasn't militaristic at all. He was CEO of Thorn Industries, and also some sort of a rather beloved figure on the world stage, if I recall correctly, appointed to run some kind of world youth organization by the United Nations.

In regards to stupid descriptions, I'll never forget the theater's description of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2: "Flint Lockwood is at it again."
What is he at again? What is the movie about? Who is he and what does he do?
