Which he kept inside his home and not in the garage like in the Omega Man...Smart move

Yeah you need to watch it again.

Agreed

Did anyone notice that the scene where it seems Will is in a fire filled room with the infected right in his face (not attacking) is not in the movie?

:blink:



From what I read that was the original ending, but they cut it short to save money...Will was suppose to be surrounded by the vampires and the head vampires says something in his ear "speaks" not just howls to show they have evolved and then Will gives that cocky look and drops the grenade...boom...a much better ending.

Let me add that I thought the ending sucked but the whole movie.

Yep the ending was rushed to save money and to make room for the sequel...sad really...but there were still some really good scenes in the movie.
I also read the original movie was R but Will changed it so his kids could watch it, not sure if that is true or not, but that would explain why some scenes in the trailer are missing from the movie.

I'll wait for a better release and then post my opinion

i thought the movie was pretty good just a few flaws

Spoiler: Show

1. the "vampires were less intelligent" they did not speak
2. the mannequin scene pissed me off why did he go fuck with it
3. the ending was horrible blowing his self up instead of throwing the grenade then crawling into the duct:huh:

yeah I agree, thats where they should of used real actors and not CGI, that way they are more human and less vampire/zombies like in the movie.
In the book you had the dead vampire and the live vampires and they both could talk and would taunt him, to break him down and drive him crazy. Eventually the live vampires formed a society and though of Robert as the villian

2. the mannequin scene pissed me off why did he go fuck with it.

I think by then he was going insane and when he saw the mannequin not in his place, he couldn't accept it,
Did you notice when he first walked up to the mannequin its head moved? I think that was to show us how he was losing it

3. the ending was horrible blowing his self up instead of throwing the grenade then crawling into the duct:huh:

That wasn't the original ending for the movie. Watch the ending of Busymans trailer
But he had to die so the title of the show made sense, it was a very stupid ending though!
In the book he was a legend to the vampires like vampires are to us, he was the reason they were afraid to go to sleep during the day

I agree with alot of what you said in the spoiler and added my own theories. :)

If vampires/zombies were unintelligent...

Spoiler: Show

then how was the trap set up by the main bad dude??? horrible script writting...

Allright Will wait for atleast R5 to rewatch the movie.....
1. I was over excited by the speedy Camera release
2. Was very disappointed by Audio and black out during the movie.
it's cam audio , There is no room for complaint as it was Free :)
Correct me if wrong.......

The reason he was followed at the End was due to That Saviour Lady forgot
to pour vinegar around the car and around his home?
Or She was spyed by one of vampire/zombie that might have survived the car accident?

Still Living for 3 yrs and thinking "Protection around Home Not required and Trusting Metal
shutters " is a Bit of Dumb ??

How does Anna knows the Correct address of our hero if she is meeting him for first Time?
After rescue accident she took him to Correct apartment!

1. They were followed. They came home at night. I assume the infected could communicate whereabouts to each other.

2. She asked him where he lived.

For a movie that didn't have a whole lot of interaction and conversation, you guys missed a lot.:ermm:

so, is he a legend?

No the title says he is Legend not a legend. I need to read more books...

Like Skizo said, it really went downhill. The beginning scenes still make up for it though. Well, enough for you to at least watch it once. It's not a good movie, but it's not that bad.

I think more than anything, the potential for an amzaing film was there and that's what disappoints me more than anything.

On another note, damn I need to go to the gym.
