This video is The Last Man on Earth starring Vincent Price.  This is the only faithful film adaptation of Richard Matheson’s I am legend.

 Most people don’t know it but “I am legend” was not about zombies or mutants.   The Creatures were old school, traditional vampires.  Warded by symbols of faith and garlic.  And killed via stake through the heart.   The hero learns (at the end) that he had been killing the intelligent race that had replaced humans.  Killing them when they are most vulnerable (in their daytime sleep).  He had become their boogie man. 

That’s where the line “I am legend” comes from, the moment he realized he was the monster in a world of vampires… 

The twist, the meaning, these things have been so distorted that no one would recognize a faithful adaptation of “I am Legend” today, they’d think it’s a stupid vampire knock off version or something to that effect.  I wish someone was brave enough to try a faithful version again…

Black and white

And colorized option.

Further note:   Peter Cushing and Vincent Price were the basis for Peter Vincent in the original Fright Night, Fright Night Part 2, and Fright Night tie-in comics.

On this day in 1897 the novel Dracula was first published.   It is also the birthday of Peter Cushing (who played Van Helsing in all the Hammer horror films).  And tomorrow is the Birthday of Christopher Lee (Who played Dracula in the Hammer Dracula films and many others.)  And tomorrow is also the Birthday of Vincent Price (also a great and classic horror actor.)

Yeah I know Crowley’s not bad in the story, the point is we need to stop equating dark charactersitics with evil and light characterstics with good. A lot of people will argue casting and harass actors of color for being cast in a role the people envision as white because the people are racist. An author has a choice in that situation to either say “no, stop, that’s ridiculous, who cares what skin or hair color this character has, that’s not the point” or do what Neil did and completely misread the room.

Neil sucks at handling sensitive topics, be it race or for example trans issues, so maybe he shouldn’t.

I just wish white cishet men stopped writing, like forever. They’ve had their chance, they keep fucking it up. Neil’s not above criticism because his writing is better than some of the other shit on places like r/menwritingwomen etc.
