Brilliant performances elevate The First Omen's well-executed chills and thrills to a terrifying experience. Despite struggling at the box office, The First Omen received rave reviews from viewers and critics. Director Arkasha Stevenson's forte, along with Ben Jacoby's taut writing, make The First Omen a compelling and immersive horror.

The First Omen's well-executed chills and thrills are further elevated by the brilliant performances of its cast members, who perfectly portray their respective characters. Serving as a prequel to the horror classic The Omen, The First Omen walks through the conspiracy that led to the birth of the Antichrist from the original movie. Despite having a compelling storyline and a talented filmmaker like Arkasha Stevenson at its helm, The First Omen struggled to leave its mark at the box office and only earned close to $54 million worldwide against a budget of $30 million.

However, despite not being commercially successful,...

Mr Stink BBC One

By Aislinn Kinsella

The BBC Christmas drama Mr. Stink was about an odorous beggar being helped by a kind teenage girl. She helped him by giving him and his dog Duchess sausages and eventually a place to sleep in her shed. While he was sleeping in the night, the girl (Chloe) began to unravel secrets from his past and discovered that he once was a rich Lord with a beautiful wife. Although the duo had a squabble over a visit to the laundry, Mr. Stink managed to bring happiness to Chloe’s family. This was no small achievement given her mother’s egocentricity (that’s what politics does to people) and the meddling of the British Prime Minister. Downton Abbey’s Hugh Bonneville starred as the smelly title character in this heart warming and somewhat silly drama.
