I liked O'man better, but...my favorite Heston movie of the future
disaster genre was and shall remain Soylent Green. The"furniture" was
spectacular (Leigh Taylor-Young at her best), and it was, I believe, the
last role for Edward G. Robinson, one of the best to watch actors ever.
Yeah, I thought Omega Man was a better movie. However, it's been decades
since I've seen Soylent Green. Maybe I should look for it the next time
I'm in a video store.
You really owe it to yourself to watch "Soylent Green" again - it's a
classic.
You might like the very original "Last Man on Earth" with Vincent
Price. It's a little dated, but it is the original "legend" movie
based on the book and it follows the storyline closely. It's a good
movie - people often forget that Price was an excellant actor and he
proves it in this movie.
If you are into these "apoclypse" type movies, try "Silent Running"
with Bruce Dern. If you can get past the goofy robots, that's a great
"eco" movie years ahead of it's time.
