"Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast; for it is the number of a man; and his number is 666."
Robert Thorn (Gregory Peck) and his wife Katherine (Lee Remick) have the perfect life, especially once their son Damien is born. But then Keith Jennings (David Warner) shatters it by planting the seed that Damien is literally the spawn of the devil. Initially unbelieving Robert soon comes to see that Damien may be more than he seems, but what do you do when your son may actually be the antichrist?
An effective horror, that builds a chilling conspiracy around the main protagonists, who all play their parts with a cold determination.
