American diplomat Robert Thorn and his wife Kathy are living in Rome, where Kathy gives birth to a boy who Robert is told died immediately. Hospital chaplain Father Spiletto persuades Robert to secretly adopt another baby whose mother just died in childbirth. Robert does not tell Kathy the child is not their own. They name him Damien. Five years later, Robert is Ambassador to the United Kingdom in London when mysterious events begin to plague the Thorns: a menacing Rottweiler appears at their home, Damien's nanny publicly hangs herself during his fifth birthday party, new nanny Mrs. Baylock arrives unannounced, Damien violently resists entering a church, and Damien's presence terrifies animals at a safari park. Father Brennan warns Robert about Damien's origins, hinting that he is not human and insisting Robert take Communion. He tells Robert that Damien is the son of Satan, that Kathy is pregnant, and that Damien will kill his unborn sibling and parents. Later, Father Brennan is killed by a falling lightning rod. Kathy tells Robert she wants an abortion, which he opposes. Damien knocks Kathy over a railing to the floor below, injuring and causing her to miscarry. Photographer Keith Jennings notices shadows in photographs of the nanny and Father Brennan that presaged their deaths. Keith shows Robert the photos along with news clippings and Biblical passages that suggest the coming of the Antichrist. He accompanies Robert to Rome to investigate Damien's birth. They learn that a fire destroyed the hospital, including Kathy's maternity records, and killed the staff on duty. They find Father Spiletto in a monastery severely burned, mute, blind in one eye, and partially paralyzed. He directs them to the cemetery where Damien's biological mother is buried. In Damien's mother's grave, Robert and Keith find a jackal carcass and, in the next plot, a child's skeleton with a shattered skull. Robert realizes that the child was his own son, murdered so that Damien could take his place. A pack of Rottweilers drives Robert and Keith from the cemetery. Robert calls Kathy in hospital to tell her she must leave London. Before she can do so, Mrs. Baylock throws her to her death from a window. Robert and Keith meet Antichrist expert Carl Bugenhagen in Israel who says if Damien is the true Antichrist, he will bear a birthmark in the shape of three sixes. Carl gives Robert seven daggers with which to kill Damien on hallowed ground. Robert refuses to do so, but Keith remains convinced about the necessity of it. Afterwards, Keith is decapitated by a sheet of glass. Robert then reluctantly accepts his task. Robert finds the birthmark on the sleeping Damien's scalp and is attacked by Mrs. Baylock, whom he stabs to death. Armed with the daggers, Robert drives Damien to a cathedral. His erratic driving draws the attention of the police. Robert drags a screaming Damien onto the altar to kill him, but is shot to death by police before he can do so. The double funeral of Kathy and Robert is attended by the U.S. President and the First Lady, who have Damien with them. Damien turns and smiles at the camera.

"The Omen" skillfully taps into religious horror, exploring themes of evil, destiny, and the fear of the unknown. The use of religious symbols and dark prophecies adds a layer of terror that continues to captivate audiences.  The film capitalizes on the fear of what lies beyond our understanding, where the supernatural and the religious intersect. It's a psychological horror that delves into the darkest corners of our collective fears."The Omen" centers around Robert Thorn, played by Gregory Peck, an American ambassador living in London. When his wife, Katherine Thorn, portrayed by Lee Remick, gives birth to a stillborn child, Robert is convinced by a priest to secretly adopt an orphaned baby, Damien, who mysteriously appears in its place.Little Damien, played by Harvey Stephens, soon becomes the center of supernatural occurrences and eerie deaths, prompting Robert to investigate the origins of this malevolent child. As he delves deeper, he uncovers a web of biblical prophecies, sinister forces, and an impending apocalyptic doom.Check out the merch:  http://shop.backinthedaypodcast.comFriends of the Show1 Man Mafia (twitch.tv/1man_mafia)Jayke The Gamer God (twitch.tv/JaykeTheGamerGod)IB Best Gaming (https://www.tiktok.com/@ibbestgaming)Intro for the shopSupport the show'Beavis and Butt-head' Cover art created by Joe Crawford

The demon child cursed our recording session. Listen to take three of this episode where I was sucked of all life. Synopsis Gregory Peck plays Robert Thorn, a wealthy and politically influential man who unbeknownst to his wife, adopts a baby boy to replace his son that was born, but died on the same day. The child, named Damien, when he becomes a toddler begins to be surrounded by strange an untimely deaths. When his father starts investigating the circumstances of Damien's birth, he finds out his mother is a real bitch, and his father, wel his father is a real jerk. Review of The Omen (1976) The Omen is a tentpole horror movie, which makes up the unofficial trilogy of parenting horror with Rosemary's Baby, and The Exorcist. It preys upon every parent's fear of “is my toddler…evil incarnate?” This movie answers… maybe! The real horror in the film isn't anything that Damien does, it's what he represents for the future, and the powers that seek to protect him. The focus isn't so much on gaslighting like in Rosemary's Baby, The Omen focuses on “outside forces” that set themselves against and for the Thorn family.  “The Omen” in the title refers to the prophecy of the antichrist, and in particular a poem that an ominous priest recites to Mr Thorn. While there aren't a lot of “scares”, this is a taut and well paced thriller with plenty of dread and Ominousness. It's a well constructed and acted movie, with a couple set pieces that really stick in your mind. I did wish that they did a little more with little Damien to do. He really is a blank slate in the film. He barely had any lines and as far as characterization, he seems indifferent to death, and has shifty eyes. It would have been nice to create more of a dilemma for the ending by showing him as a more normal boy who loved his parents. I really like this movie, but it doesn't quite achieve the emotional heights of Rosemary's Baby or The Exorcist, so I deduct one point. Score 9/10

Subconscious Realms Episode 190 - Dr John Dee - The Queen's Conjuror/Alchemist & Occult Genius - Hermes Risen - D.J. Elliott. Ladies & Gentlemen, on this Episode of Subconscious Realms we welcome back our Incredible, Extraordinary Debbie to discuss The Queen's Conjuror himself, Alchemist & Occult Genius, Dr John Dee... Dee was an intense Christian, but his religiosity was influenced by Hermetic and Platonic-Pythagorean doctrines pervasive in the Renaissance. He believed that numbers were the basis of all things and key to knowledge. From Hermeticism he drew a belief that man had the potential for divine power that could be exercised through mathematics. His goal was to help bring forth a unified world religion through the healing of the breach of the Roman Catholic and Protestant churches and the recapture of the pure theology of the ancients. From 1570 Dee advocated a policy of political and economic strengthening of England and establishment of colonies in the New World. His manuscript Brytannicae reipublicae synopsis (1570) outlined the state of the Elizabethan Realm. and was concerned with trade, ethics and national strength. His 1576 General and Rare Memorials pertayning to the Perfect Arte of Navigation was the first volume in an unfinished series planned to advocate for the establishment of English colonies abroad. In a symbolic frontispiece, Dee included a figure of Britannia kneeling by the shore beseeching Elizabeth I to protect her nation by strengthening her navy. Dee used Geoffrey's inclusion of Ireland in King Arthur's conquests to argue that Arthur had established a "British empire" abroad. He argued that the establishment of new colonies would benefit England economically, with said colonies being protected by a strong navy. Dee has been credited with coining the term British Empire,but Humphrey Llwyd has also been credited with the first use in his Commentarioli Britannicae Descriptionis Fragmentum, published eight years earlier in 1568. Dee posited a formal claim to North America on the back of a map drawn in 1577–1580; he noted that "circa 1494 Mr. Robert Thorn his father, and Mr. Eliot of Bristow, discovered Newfound Land." In his Title Royal of 1580, he invented a claim that Madog ab Owain Gwynedd had discovered America, intending thereby to boost England's claim to the New World over that of Spain's. He also asserted that Brutus of Britain and King Arthur, as well as Madog, had conquered lands in the Americas, so that their heir, Elizabeth I of England, had a prior claim there.

On this week's episode of Macabre: The Horror Movie Podcast, the group takes on a horror classic: The Omen (1976). It follows American diplomat Robert Thorn, whose child is switched at birth with the son of Satan.

The October episode of 3 Minute 3rs, brought to you by the NC3Rs (www.nc3rs.org.uk), the North American 3Rs Collaborative (www.na3rsc.org), and Lab Animal (www.nature.com/laban). Papers 1.

Analysis of vertebrate vision in a 384-well imaging system. Thorn RJ. Sci Rep. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/31562366 Transcript [LA] Organoids are three dimensional structures derived from human cells. Unlike traditional cell cultures that are grown flat on petri dishes, multicellular organoids can offer researchers a little extra physiological context. But, an organoid of one organ still exists in isolation. A new paper published last month in the journal Nature starts to put some organoids together. The team, led by Takanori Takebe at Cincinnati Children's Hospital, wanted to study organagenesis, the process by which organs form. They took human skin cells, reverted them to pluripotent stem cells, and meticulously guided those to become small balls called spheroids that mimicked foregut and midgut. The team then put the two kinds of spheroids together in a special medium and let them grow. The structure that ultimately formed recapitulated functions of the liver, bile ducts, and pancreas. Such an integrated system is another step forward for organoid research. [NA3RsC] The worm, C. elegans, is an increasingly popular model for drug discovery and screening. For example, adverse effects of compounds can easily be detected by looking for changes in how fast the C. elegans grow, how big they get, and once they are larvae - how they move. Atakan and colleagues present a platform for automating the process of phenotyping single C elegans from the embryo to the adult. The platform overcomes many of the challenges of prior systems. It automates the painstaking process of distributing embryos into individual chambers and can expose the worms to up to 8 different chemical conditions in a single experiment. The phenotypes, including growth and movement, are measured automatically through analysis of 10 second videos captured every four hours across the worms' life cycle. To validate the platform, C. elegans were exposed to increasing concentrations of tetramisole and the known negative effects on growth and motility were demonstrated. The continued progress toward automating C. elegans studies with platforms, such as this one, will allow scientists to discover new opportunities for using the worm in early drug discovery. [NC3Rs] Automated behavioural monitoring can reveal subtle changes in an animal's vision before they can be detected physically. While these tests can be applied to rodents in the lab, each animal must be individually trained to use the system and only one animal can be monitored per cage, making it impractical for high throughput studies. In search of an alternative approach, Robert Thorn and colleagues at Brown University turned to zebrafish larvae at five days post-fertilisation. In their recent Scientific Reports paper, the team describe imaging 384 larvae at once in four 96-well plates, monitoring their response to moving visual stimuli. They found that diazepam significantly reduced their response, while flumazenil, a diazepam antidote, reversed this effect, illustrating that the larvae can be used to detect clinically relevant changes in the visual system, With three percent of the world's population affected by visual impairment, this new tool could speed up the screening and development of treatments while also replacing mammalian models.

Do these boys know how to party or what? A movie about a spooky kid from the 70s? Quick kids! Put down your cellular phones with your instagrams and tune in to the talkies for this week’s review of The Omen!  The film was directed by Richard Donner (Superman, The Goonies, Lethal Weapon) and stars Gregory Peck (To Kill a Mocking Bird, Cape Fear, The Boys from Brazil). Peck plays Robert Thorn, who, while desperate to spare his wife’s feelings, tricks her into believing that Damien is their own son, who actually died shortly after being born. Harvey Spencer Stephens who played Damien, had a very minor acting career after the film, appearing in a TV movie, then having a cameo in the 2006 remake of The Omen as a reporter.  With the help of Keith Jennings, played by David Warner (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: Secret of the Ooze, Star Trek VI, Star Trek V, Star Trek TNG, Tron) Thorn tries to discovery what happened to his son, who Damien really is, and how to undo the plot he has been unwittingly complicit in for the past five years. Oh, and we cannot forget Jerry Goldsmith’s Academy Award winning score!  This week's Hidden Track is Green Eyes by The Mammoths (https://themammothsmusic.com/; @the_mammoths).

Doesnâ??t the mention in Galatians of Paulâ??s meeting with â??James the Lordâ??s brotherâ?? count against mythicism? Was Thomas Didymus in some sense Jesusâ?? twin? Does the NT refer anywhere to a shape-shifting Jesus? I'm wondering if you have any thoughts on how to discredit Papal Infallibility.  How much of the poem Father Brennan recites to Robert Thorn in THE OMEN is based on Revelation or any of the apocrypha or any other biblical prophecy? What do you think of Islam and the Koran? I would like your take on the parallels that exist between Paul and Stoicism - both intentional and accidental. How much actual influence existed there, and precisely what of Paul's writings best exemplify this? Is Theophilus (lover of God) just the Christian reader of the Gospel of Luke? Why does only Mark mention Pilate's astonishment at Jesus' quick death? Is there any scriptural warrant for the Doctrine of Inclusion, whereby there is no Hell and all are saved, whether they believe or not, whether they do good works or not. Indeed: whether they are Christians and accept the divinity of Jesus or not? Adventures in tongue-speaking.

It's episode 52...but have no fear little ones, we are here to protect thee! This week we're diving into British horror classic The Omen (1976) to tackle cinema's most enduring troublesome tyke. US ambassador Robert Thorn is happily married with their child Damien in tow, but is the boy in question all he appears? Could he, or possibly an international satanic conspiracy dedicated to him, be responsible for the sudden and grisly deaths of Robert's friends and associates? We debate nature vs nurture theories of child rearing, query whether political correctness really has gone mad and confront maybe the greatest terror we've ever faced - elevators in 1970s Italian hospitals. All of which leads to one big question:  How would you survive? Whatever happens, one thing's for sure...it's all for you Damien! Another classic film solved by the best movie podcast in the world.
