Many believe the prophecy from the
Book of Revelation provides a map to a terrifying
future--or it presents fragments of history that
have come to life in our time. The signs, they claim,
are all around us: terrorist attacks, extreme weather--the
list goes on.
The passage specifically points to the arrival of
the Anti-Christ, who is branded with the numerical
sequence "666":
the mark of the Beast. The Anti-Christ will receive
his power directly from Satan to establish a counterfeit
kingdom on earth, signaling the beginning of Armageddon.
Robert Thorn (Liev Schreiber)
is unaware of such dark prophecies. Thorn, a senior
American diplomat, has other things on his mind.
His wife, Katherine (Julia
Stiles), has endured a difficult delivery
and she's as yet unaware their newborn child has
died. Devastated by the loss, Thorn's concern turns
to Katherine, who had suffered two previous miscarriages.
The news will surely devastate her.
The hospital priest, Father Spiletto, presents Thorn
with another child born that night, whose mother
died in childbirth. The priest compels Thorn to
take the infant boy as his own; Katherine will never
know the truth, and their son, which they name Damien,
will be raised as their flesh and blood. Katherine
embraces the child as her own, blossoming in motherhood.
Thorn's career ascends--he becomes the U.S. ambassador
to Great Britain--and the family settles into an
estate outside London. But certain events, all seeming
to revolve around the new five-year-old Damien,
are deeply disturbing: Damien's nanny hangs herself
at the youngster's birthday party; a strange priest
brings dire warnings to Thorn; a children's trip
to the zoo results in a panicked frenzy; Damien
becomes hysterical during a drive to church; and
blurred movements in a series of photographs portend
shocking deaths.
Enter Mrs. Blaylock (Mia Farrow),
Damien's new nanny, who seems to have a preordained
devotion to the child. Then tragedy strikes closer
to home. Damien is no ordinary child; he is the
long-prophesized Anti-Christ. Now, Thorn must make
the ultimate sacrifice to prevent the unspeakable
terror that awaits the world. The prophecy is clear,
the signs unmistakable: Armageddon is upon us. |
