For whom would-be-localizers shove this word Omen into the name? Does it mean anything to millennials? And for those who are older, it is already clear that this is a snag. Average horror movie, based on the kid and the expectation of bloodshed. One scene at the end, however, is not enough. The rest is pretty pointless.
