Saw 'The Omen' Last Night

[Simon]

The Omen (the original) actually was previewed on June 6, 1976, so this one is just following the path already there.

I'd just turned 21 when The Omen opened in '76 and I took a date to see that movie. When we came out of the movie we walked across the street to where I'd parked the car. It was a dark street and the car was parked by the opening to an alley. As I walked around the car to open the door for my date, we heard a growling/barking coming from the even darker alley.

The next thing I remembered was the two of us sitting in the car staring at each other. Evidently I pushed her into the car, locked her door, and jumped over the car to my side, slid in and locked my door, all in a matter of a couple of seconds.

I think it was the Rotties in the cemetary scene that got to me, and to her too. I'm not sure what was in that alley, but we both laughed pretty hard once we realized we were safe.
