...some freaky scenes w/ people who can't stay out in the sun-lite.
Some interesting commentary on race in this movie.
Charlton Heston ranks right up there behind Clint Eastwood for "screen cool".
Almost everything he did was worth watching, and this is no exception.
If you like science fiction at all, rent it or buy it
Where's the DVD ?
4 solid stars, should be 4 1/2.
This movie is great, and showcases why Heston is such a gun lover to this day. Apparently he has it in his screwball head that the mutants are coming after us. After movies like Soylent Green, and Planet of the Apes, this one ranks up there with them. The canned sausage scene is the best. Looks much more appetizing than Soylent Green. And he has plenty of guns in this one. Versus the old Vincent Price version, where he only used tear gas bombs. Heston goes all out with machine guns blazing. Kinda like the Punisher!!! They could have gotten a better love interest though. And the ending sucks. But rent it anyways.
I rented this one on a Saturday afternoon while suffering a bad hangover. Didn't cure the headache, but I enjoyed the movie. Heston is vintage Heston, and the weirdo Albino killers are freaky as hell. Has some unintended camp value to it that fans of the post-apocalypose genre will enjoy. Not on the same level as Planet of the Apes, but good nonetheless. Recommended.
This is another good apocalyptic movie by Charlton Heston. It shows what could have happened during the cold war. This has a great idea, good plot, pretty nice effects, good bad guy cult, and a alright ending. This is worth the small price of the video to see. You should see Soylent Green staring Charlton Heston another movie along the same lines. Both very much worth seeing.
A gritty and apocalyptic look at the dangers of
the Cold-War. Heston gives a
great performance as
Neville, the lone survivor. An action-thriller in its
own
right, Omega Man is both stylish and a
cult classic.
This will be a tough one to beat by a re-make.
