Damien: Omen II

Several years after the death of his parents, Damien is living with his uncle Richard in Chicago. With some encouragement, Damien learns that he is, in fact, the Antichrist. Soon after, anyone who is suspicious of Damien or anyone who might stand in the way of his followers is met with a grisly death. While it's not as good as the original film, Damien: Omen II is a pretty decent follow-up. The kills are creative and a little gorier this time around. Most of them are meant to appear to be bizarre accidents, which ends up giving them Final Destination vibes. And even though chunks of the movie get bogged down with corporate and/or domestic melodrama, it's still fairly well paced.
