6. The Omen

Premise of the movie: The Omen told the tale of Damien, the spawn of Satan. After his wife suffers a stillbirth, American diplomat Robert chooses to adopt a young boy without a mother. He later learns that this young boy is actually the Antichrist and the world is in danger.

There were sequels to the movie, but not quite struck the fear that the original did. For 1976, the movie brought to life the fear of religion and the supernatural.

Why it needs the Lego treatment: While The Omen is an excellent horror, there are easily some comedic elements. A live action spoof wouldn’t quite work in the way that a Lego version would. It’s certainly been long enough since the original movie to create a reboot now.

Lego offers the ability to build more into the supernatural aspects. There is the chance to add something spookier and even show the thought process for Damien as the acts are carried out. Some of the movies also go into backstory, Bible verses, and theories, which could all play out in quick flashes rather than leaving people attempting to follow some of the sometimes deeply spiritual storylines.
