666: The Child (2006)

Is it the Omen?  Not exactly, but close enough.  Donald is the only survivor of a plane crash.  News reporter Erika is touched by Donald's story and convinces her cameraman husband Scott that they should adopt the poor little orphaned child.  He's so cute and so orphaned, how could she resist?

Erika is putting in extra work so she can get a job on the national news.  So they put an ad in the paper to hire a nanny, and end up hiring a nice young woman named Lucy Fir... oh come on!

No one thinks twice about her name, as that would be inconvenient.  Thankfully everyone is clueless, especially Erika who leaves an attractive nanny with knee high boots and a very short skirt alone with her husband on the first day she's hired.  Not good even if your nanny isn't the devil and teaming with your adopted son to kill everyone.

Like most films by The Asylum, it's fairly bland and lacks life, but I still watched it.  It's predictable, the kid is cute, and you might get a few laughs out of it.
