This third instalment of the Omen trilogy sees saurnine Sam Neill as the grown-up Damien plotting world domination through fomenting world conflict while getting increasingly paranoid about the return of Christ. Actually a group of monks are trying to kill him but they come to the usual grisly ends. Neill holds it together with chilly charisma and it's a worthy end to the trilogy with an untypical happy ending.
Lisa Harrow ( as Kate )
Sex : Damian sodomises Kate when she goes to bed with him
Death : Survives
Lisa was born in New Zealand but did her drama training in the UK. Her career began in the early seventies and she has always juggled film, TV and theatre work. She began a relationship with Neill after filming this and he is the father of her son Tim. She later married a marine biologist and has been active in environmental campaigns.
Leueen Willoughby ( as Barbara )
Sex : No
Death : Survives
This was probably Leueen's most prominent role in a patchy career in film and TV which ended after 1987.
Ruby Wax ( as Secretary )
Sex : No
Death : Survives
This was Ruby's first (uncredited ) film role. Her early roles were straight but her burgeoning careeer as a comedienne meant her later films were all comedies. Her career is of course ongoing.
