Omen III: The Final Conflict is a big letdown of the entire franchise. As I remember correctly from the original, the first dagger is to extinguish the physical life with the rest of the seven daggers doing something specific. Also, the killing must be done on a hallowed ground. Yeah, well...in this sequel, the entire protocol is skipped.

The older Damien Thorn is, the more powerful he becomes, but there's only one guy with him at all times? Come on, give me a break. Even worse is the servant disobeying Damien. It's impossible considering what happened to the maid in the original.

Damien Thorn asks for it and gets what he wants: die. Right there, what he's telling me is that I wasted my time with the whole thing. I don't understand why Damien waited for thirty-two years to achieve his goals when he had the power to do it sooner.

All in all, the whole franchise of The Omen should've been condensed into a two-hour film.
