The Omega Man (1971)
Directed by Boris
Sagal this film based on the novel “I Am Legend” stars Charlton
Heston, Anthony Zerbe and Rosalind Cash. A man that is immune to a
plague that has wiped out most of humanity is hunted by diseased
sufferers.
This is the second of
three major adaptations of the same novel and like the others it
differs from the novel in various ways. The film explores the ideas
of man's role and responsibility for his own downfall pretty well
even if not with that much depth. While there are good performances
from the cast some of the make up on the infected is a little
suspect.
3/5
