Rating: Summary: "I am the last man"... Review: Well, let me start by saying that I don't own this exact DVD edition of the film. I bought a set of movies called "Horror Classics," and the back of the box said that it contained the Last Man on Earth, which it said was an old cheesy silent film from 1924. When I put the disc in, much to my surprise, there was Vincent Price.Upon watching this film I was very very pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere was extremely creepy, and the dialogue (even though most of it was Price's character, Robert Morgan, talking to himself) was amazing. This film reminded me a lot of Night of the Living Dead, even though it was released 4 years earlier. I love horror films about apocalyptic visions of earth, and this was one. Props to Vincent Price for successfully carrying a large portion of this movie as the only character (for at least 20-ish minutes). Don't let the apparent budgetary problems deter you from this film. It was incredible and a very pleasant surprise.
