Sci-Fi Bulletin: Exploring the Universes of SF, Fantasy, Horror and Spy-fi!

The new addition to the Omen saga arrives today so what better time to look back at the original?

Nick: If we can’t agree on the acting, can we both agree that the premise of Armageddon absolutely hit the zeitgeist? The paraphrasing of the Book of Revelations was genius.

Martin: Nigel Farage may be a bit much for some people (including me), but even he didn’t suggest that the formation of the Common Market was a precursor to the end off the world. Although on the flip side, the 666 indicated by the opening scene, taking place at 6am on the 6th June assumes that Satan is working on Central European Summer Time rather than GMT which is two hours behind or even BST at just an hour, so perhaps there’s something in it after all.
