Product Description:
Welcome to the future. Biological war has decimated life on Earth. Los Angeles is a windswept ghost town where Robert Neville tools his convertible through sunlit streets foraging for supplies. And makes damn sure he gets undercover before sundown when other 'inhabitants' emerge. The Omega Man adapts Richard Matheson's novel I Am Legend into a high-impact high-tension saga of a fate not far removed from reality. Charlton Heston is Neville fending off attacks by The Family sinister neopeople spawned by the plague. He also becomes a man with a mission after meeting Lisa (Rosalind Cash) another unifected survivor - and guardian of some healthy children representing our species' hope.

Average Rating: 
Rating: - The original "I Am Legend".
This original version is slightly different in details but both "Omega Man" and "I Am Legend" follow almost exactly the same story line down to the names of the characters.
Rating: - Another Chuckston foray into Sci-Fi land
Made with a bigger budget and based on the same Richard Matheson novel as the Vincent Price film THE LAST MAN ON EARTH, THE OMEGA MAN eschews the original vampire concept in exchange for germ warefare zombies with really bad skin and white hair to match. Besides Chuck the cast includes Rosalind Cash, Paul Koslo and Anthony Zerbe. Heston acquits himself well. The ending is probably one of the more controversial of the 1970's. Weirdly enough, the recent Will Smith outing is based less on the Matheson ... Read More
Rating:  - The 1st I am Legend
Interesting Movie
Since I did not read the book, I am not sure if this version or the I am Legend version is true to the actual book.
Rating:  - very 70ish
my Dad just loved this movie but it did not do it for me. Its very 70ish with the "family" and all. I liked I AM LEGEND with Will Smith a lot more. But the Will Smith move dose pay a lot of tribute to this movie.
Rating: - "I am Legend" is a Remake of "The Omega Man"
"I am Legend" is a Remake of "The Omega Man". Aside from the special effects, "The Omega Man" is a better implementation of the original storyline. It avoids the plunge into "Night of the Living Dead" and instead represents 'The Dark Seekers' with soothsaying hippie vampires. To see what I mean, you just have to try it... Definitely worthwhile viewing.
