So the movie was quite interesting and we can see how from the beginning the movie have some secrets: the adoption of a baby, the death of the dad's child. We have this and some mystery arround the baby and i just realised that we still dont know how was reallg Damien's mother. So slowly we will discover that they are some mysterious events with that kid. The references to religion are there but dont really bother me and just make us understand more what happen. And we have also the arrival of Mrs Baylock that i found the shot when she killed Katherine very nice with the quick shots and the lights make it very frightening. Some brutal deaths too ( suicide at the beginning, the priest, Keith). So we understand better their missions to stop Kathy to have a new child. And yeah basically, we witness all the events and the way that the father will take care of Damien even if we know that he failed and died. The Evil won. I need to say also that the movie have a particular ambience mostly with the sound and the music arround the events who make it uncmofortable. I really enjoyed it and im glad that they take time to tell the story without rushing and developp also the mysteries until the revelations. Nice movie.
