This isn't out in New Zealand yet, don't know whether it's out in the states? The trailer has me really excited, I love these kinds of movies. Opinons/predictions?

I've already posted about this somewhere around here . All I have to say is read the book first . It's fantastic. It doesn't come out here in the states until the 14th of December.

the trailer makes it seem like an alien invasion type of movie, but i hear it's actually about vampires or something. what's the deal with that?

A virus outbreak. But from the trailer they don't look much like vampires as much as they look like weird creatures.

There's a book? Who's the author.

Richard Matheson.


I'll be buying a few of his books, he has quite a few high stars on amazon.

Thanks Empress for making him known

I'll read it.

My pleasure . He's a magnificent author. If you want to see a lot of his work in one book may I suggest getting the two-in-one book I Am Legend and Hell House. Between those two stories are shorter stories (between 1 and 30 pages at most). Also, other fancy books like Now You See It and What Dreams May Come. You may have heard of that one, it was made into a movie around 1998 I believe starring Robin Williams.

Seen the trailer....very eerie...love to see it.

''What Dreams May Come''...had to watch it a few times to really grasp it, good movie, Cuba is awesome.

The (international) trailer looks fantastic. I love the way you really get a feel for his lonliness and the way it builds up the tension til it shows you what he has to deal with.. And imo Will Smith is actually a decent actor when he wants to be and he looks good in this.

This movie is a remake of the classic 70's film The Omega Man with Chuck Heston. I highly suggest you watch this film as it will give you an idea of where I Am Legend plot wise and story wise is going.

I can't wait to see this film it's been quite a while since a really good post apocalyptic movie came out.

some guy wrote that if you cross 28 days later with blade its pretty much it
He also advised to read the book first because as privously stated its good

Here's an IMDB link for anyone who wants to know more about it.
It sounds pretty interesting, might check it out sometime.
