I liked the movie. It was really nothing like the book. They never really led you to believe that the "creatures" were vampires, they almost led you to believe that they were these superhuman zombies. I don’t think I would have made that conclusion if I hadn’t read the book. The book and movie are good in there own right. I don’t like the fact that it was completely different than the book, but it was a very cool and modern way to interpret the book, and they actually did a good job. Thumbs up in my book.

Rainwalker, The Omega Man came out on DVD recently, with added scenes. I got mine thru Amazon.com.
I was also enough to score the I am Legend comic series, thanks to an awesome friend. It is based on the original book.

He lived in the suburbs and used bleach to mask his scent when he went home.

No, he was pretty much outclassed in the buildings and he went to great lengths to avoid entering large, dark buildings.
Go see the movie to find out who they were.

I actually thought the carrier would have been a nice hideout. A floating armored fortress. I plan on seeing the flick again on friday, with my brother. Very few movies I'd spend the money to see twice in the theatre. Actually, this is the only one, so far. Macgregor, you gotta go see it. Ted is right. One man alone would have a bitch of a time clearing out buildings in NYC. On second thought,The problem wouldn't be so much the clearing, but keeping them clear afterwards.
One of my buddies used to live across the street from where Neville lived, in the city.
