Think of the worst adaptation, remake, reboot, sequel, or remix that you've seen. Got it? The first episode of Damien was probably worse.March 07, 2016
Bad writing, funny direction, deafening music - in the end, none of it is enough to kill the "Beast." It does rise, although not to the potential of its concept.March 08, 2016
There's potential in this show thanks to its cinematic style and decent lineup of actors.March 08, 2016
Damien aims for epic darkness, but it only achieves blundering, dour obscurity.March 07, 2016
Despite coming from Glen Mazzara of The Walking Dead, Damien is just dreary.March 07, 2016
This is a show almost completely without humor, an attitude that might get you through a two-hour movie but can wear a watcher out over the course of a TV series.March 08, 2016
Damien has one significant shortcoming: In its attempt to call forth the end of days by making the Antichrist TV's newest hunky protagonist, the show starts its story much too early.March 14, 2016
The only one who looks like she's having fun is Barbara Hershey, who appears to be playing some sort of devil's henchman/Mrs. Robinson character as she murmurs to Damien about his evil possibilities. Otherwise, the drama is fairly inert, and so cheap!March 07, 2016
The horror doesn't work, the characters aren't defined and the plot is ludicrous.March 09, 2016
While only time will tell if it warrants must-see status, Damien is off to a decent enough start, thanks to a polished look, a solid cast- especially Hershey, who exudes the menace she perfected in the likes of Black Swan- and some excellent gore effects.
