Vintage original 8x10 in. US mini lobby card from the classic 1970's horror thriller, THE OMEN, released in 1976 by 20th Century-Fox and directed by Richard Donner. Mysterious deaths surround an American ambassador. Could the child that he is raising actually be the Antichrist, the Devil's own son? The cast includes Lee Remick, David Warner, Billie Whitelaw, Harvey Stephens, and Patrick Troughton. As indicated in the bottom left corner, this is lobby card #8 from the set of 8 cards. The image is from the film's climax and depicts a dramatic scene as Ambassador Robert Thorn (Gregory Peck) struggles with his son, Damien (Harvey Stephens), the Antichrist, on the steps leading to the altar inside of a church as he tries to kill him while (off-camera) the police arrive with their guns drawn. It is unrestored in very fine- condition with small marks from a blue ballpoint pen on both right corners and the bottom left corner. There are no pinholes, tears, stains, or other flaws. The film seemed to fall victim to a sinister curse. Star Gregory Peck and screenwriter David Seltzer took separate planes to the UK...yet BOTH planes were struck by lightning. While producer Harvey Bernhard was in Rome, lightning just missed him. Rottweilers hired for the film attacked their trainers. A hotel at which director Richard Donner was staying got bombed by the IRA; he was also struck by a car. After Peck canceled another flight to Israel, the plane he would have chartered crashed...killing all on board. On day one of the shoot, several principal members of the crew survived a head-on car crash. The jinx appeared to persist well into post-production when special effects artist John Richardson was injured and his girlfriend beheaded in an accident on the set of A Bridge Too Far (1977). Composer Jerry Goldsmith won the Academy award for "Best Original Score" for The Omen.
