It's fascinating to see the opulence in which Damien is raised and how he still feels empty in spite of it, knowing he is part of something bigger that hasn't been revealed. As the teenage Damien, Jonathan Scott-Taylor works wonders with the role This more-than-competent sequel to The Omen raises some interesting questions about the nature of free will can the Antichrist deny his birthright? Jerry Goldsmith who won an Oscar for his work on the first film in the series contributes another marvellously foreboding score. Berwick also trained the avian actors in Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds 1963. Live birds and a crow-puppet were used for the attack on photojournalist Joan Hart. Lee Grant, another Oscar-winner, was a fan of the first Omen and accepted enthusiastically the role of female protagonist-later-turncoat Ann Thorn.Ray Berwick 1914–1990 trained and handled the crows used for several scenes in the film. The Omen went on to become a huge hit and Holden made sure he did not turn down the part of protagonist Richard Thorn in the sequel. Gregory Peck was selected as his replacement. In recent interviews, Hodges has commented sanguinely on his experiences working on Omen II.Academy Award-winning veteran actor William Holden was the original choice to star as Robert Thorn in the first Omen, but turned it down as he did not want to star in a picture about the devil. However, the few scenes Hodges directed some of the footage at the factory and at the military academy, all of the early archaeology scenes, and the dinner where Aunt Marion shows her concern about Damien remained in the completed film, for which Hodges retains a story credit. During production, the producers believed that Hodges' methods were too slow, and so they fired him and replaced him with Don Taylor, who had a reputation for finishing films on time and under budget. British film director Mike Hodges was hired to helm the movie. Goldsmith's Omen II score allows eerie choral effects and unusual electronic sound designs to take precedence over the piano and Gothic chanting.Richard Donner, director of the first Omen movie, was not available to direct the second, as he was busy working on Superman. Goldsmith composed a largely different main title theme for Omen II, albeit one that utilises Latin phrases as 'Ave Satani' had done. In fact, the first movie's famous 'Ave Satani' theme is used only partially, just before the closing credits begin.

Goldsmith's Omen II score uses similar motifs to his original Omen score, but for the most part, Goldsmith avoided re-using the same musical cues. Bernhard also felt that Goldsmith's music for The Omen was the highest point of that movie, and that without Goldsmith's music, the sequel would not be successful.

The first person he contacted was Jerry Goldsmith because of the composer's busy schedule.
