...wasn't I Am Legend a remake of The Omega Man..?..I would say though, King Kong was a better remake for me, I liked the connection with Naomi Watts...also Cape Fear and Bram Stoker's Dracula...

There are three; The Last Man on Earth (1964), The Omega Man (1971), I Am Legend (2007)

(All based on the 1950's book "I Am Legend")


The Omega Man is a really strange film (I mean, it has vampire zombies that wear sunglasses) but I would say generally a better film than I Am Legend. I thought the first half of I Am Legend was excellent (Will Smith essentially alone in the city) but it didn't know where to go and flopped towards the end (after the introduction of the "intelligent" enemy and the other human characters, imo). Also the CGI is awful.
