I am Legend

First there was Vincent Price, star of the 1964 classic "The Last Man on Earth". This movie more than any other follows the Richard Matheson book "I am Legend" published ten years earlier. Like all movies the basic plot
was tweeked giving birth to "Omega
Man" in 1971. The sedate vampires
fought by Price are replaced with in vouge mutans for Charlton Heston to shoot up. Omega Man is obviously the inspiration for an excelent White Zombie toon.
"I Am Legend"
Yeah, when I'm in the sky - I'm too far away - Gotta kick in to feel it - Terminate another no one is my brother yeah! The sun burns on me Well, hell is home tomb - city - stone - nail me to another cross (yeah!) Pour the gasoline, yeah burn the fucker clean - Tell me who'd she coo I want her - Like a suicide flex - hit the run and hide!Tell me who'd she coo shine the body! Yeah...Omega-man say, "It's all gone away, I cannot believe it."Well I am the one a god with a gun I am Legend!! Planet - grave - hard - kill the slave - nail me to another cross (yeah!) Pour the gasoline, yeah burn the fucker clean, Tell me who'd she coo I want her - Like a suicide flex - hit the run and hideTell me who'd she coo shine the body- vampire sharpshooter "O" I said, "A messenger for the damned" - I got a holy gun - come a loaded to kill everything that I am. Well I am the only nitty-grittyride a rail and look at the crime - yeah! well I am the only (god?) one they can - find. Pour the gasoline, yeah burn the fucker clean - Tell me who'd she coo I want her- Like a suicide flex - hit the run and hide! Tell me who'd she coo shine the body - yeah!

As everything following this specific genre has kicked ass one can only assume Will Smith live up to expectations and deliver his usual stellar preformance to "I am Legend" the 2007 version.
