It was pure and utter crap. I only went because some friends and I went as a group for one of their birthdays today.
Here's the rundown of the positives:
+The guy that played the priest
+The guy that played the photographer
+Some of the deaths were kinda cool (the glass shards were a particularly nice touch to the impalement scene)
Now the negatives:
-Miscast parents
-In the original, the movie made me hate Damien. This movie made me hate the kid playing him.
-They cheapened the scares in this movie down to the level of the old "boo" type scares (calm scene interrupted by sudden movement)
-The dream sequences. Trust me. I wasn't the only one in the theater reminded of the new Sprite "Sublymenal Messages" ad campaign.
-Surprisingly, the woman who played Mrs. Baylock was terrible, even though I loved her in Rosemary's Baby
-The few special effects in the movie aside from the deaths were bad, and obviously blue screened
-What was with that mask that Damien was wearing in the first dream sequence?! IT LOOKED LIKE HE ROBBED THE DAMN THING FROM JIM CARREY!
