10 Movie Villains Who Actually Got Away With It
9. Damien (Omen II)
Anti-Christ Damien Thorn was finally defeated in Omen III: The Final Conflict when his lover Kate Reynolds got stabby with a set of sacred daggers, but the son of the devil managed to avoid damnation in the first two movies.
In the original Omen, Damien is merely an infant, too young to be aware of his hellish heritage. The terrible events that take place around him are very much the work of the devil himself, but that changes by the end of the second movie.
In Damien: Omen II, the protagonist becomes aware of his origin and soon embraces his destiny. It isn't long before he murders his cousin and burns his aunt to death, even though she's pledged allegiance to him, in the sequel's fiery finale.
Omen II lays the foundations for adult Damien's rise to power through the American political system, and by the time the end credits begin to roll, he's achieved a flawless victory over all who could possibly oppose him.
