Have you read the original story, I Am Legend, by Richard Matheson? Great story and it would make a fabulous movie done straight. Both Last Man On Earth and Omega Man are clearly classics, in their own way (Neville in the thater reciting all of the lines from Woodstock is one of the great post apocalyptic scenes ever).
Ahnuld (the guvinator) was scheduled to do yet another version in the run up to his political career then Will Smith was tagged, but it's now in develpment hell.
Ah well.
By the way, Matheson is a great SF/horror writer. He wrote some of the best Twilight Zone episodes and his Trilogy of Terror (three stories as one TV movie with Karen Black) is still very scary.
Take a look at his credits in IMDB. You'll be amazed.
No. If I can find it I will though.

I remember this one, she's sitting in the corner with a knife. One of the better TV horror/thriller movies of the 70's

Wow. You are right. Impressive body of work.
Thanks for the info.
I'll vouch for how good I Am Legend is...haven't read it in years, but I surely did like it....Omega Man was a good flick, but not good enough interpretation of it.
