Robert, don't know about "The Omen", but "Omen 2" is totally different to the Ken version.
I found one by complete chance at a convention a few years ago and liked the different box, so bought it expecting the same 400ft version of the movie with German sound. What a suprise! The print was masked for widescreen, unlike the Ken pan & scan, and was, in my opinion, a much better edit, with much more footage and a much more coherent story.
Still, some of the scenes from the Ken version weren't included and that classic elevator scene was still missing!!!
Also, the print I bought was horribly red (suitable in some ways I suppose!) so that's something to look out for and avoid.
