The Omen
The Final Conflict Omen IIIWhat is YOUR pick?

I agree with SEBULBA....The Omen is far superior to the other score.SFT

I would pick the same order as you Scott. The Omen Damien II is my pick of the bunch especially the tracks "Claws" and "Runaway Train"...really spooky and I love the way the choir imitates the sound of the Crows/Ravens.

It's debatable if Omen is indeed superior to Omen II. I prefer OmenII because I'm a sucker for off rythim high intense music the way only Goldsmith can score. Although a lot of the music was specially composed for the soundtrack release only (the movie had minimal score in it), it is a powerful piece of work . All the themes of the first one are re-visisted and newly orchestrated.
The only thing I'm not to fond off as far as The Omen is concerned are the more romantic, slow parts.
