I am the last man on Earth
This wonderful edition was shared with me via Twitter by Jovike:
He has a great Flickr set of this stuff.
I’m just rewatching the old Vincent Price version, The Last Man on Earth, which I still love. Most people rate The Omega Man a little higher, but odds are they’re both a lot better than the upcoming Will Smith version.
We will see.
Both versions are two different puppies and I can’t compare the two, but I would say that the Vincent Price version is the better film.
The Heston film is corny it its own way and laugh-out-loud at points like when he has raided Prince’s wardrobe.
The Price film just gets me every time with the plain loneliness and despair. It feels like you’re watching a man deal with the situation, but the Heston film feels like a film.

Well, you where right, they are both better than the new “I Am Legend” movie.
I found it to be poorest take on Mathesons’ book, it has a lot more in common with ‘Resident Evil”.
