89: We Take Aim at a Post-Apocalyptic Classic - THE OMEGA MAN!
Arnold and Scott return to chat about one of their all-time favorite post-apocalyptic action romps. Pour some genuine 160 proof old Anglo Saxon, dress for dinner, and enjoy the end of the world with Charlton Heston in 1971's THE OMEGA MAN! One of three adaptations of Richard Matheson's 1954 novel I AM LEGEND, Chuck's film falls between Vincent Price vehicle THE LAST MAN ON EARTH (for which the guys recorded a FREE feature-length audio commentary), and Will Smith's 2007 I AM LEGEND. This in-depth discussion wouldn't be complete without fellow Omega Man Scott Collura of IGN.com (who also joined the guys for a G2V Podcast on the PLANET OF THE APES franchise). And remember...there is no phone ringing, dammit! Find Scott Collura on Twitter and check out his STAR TREK podcast, TRANSPORTER ROOM 3! Support the show via our Patreon page!
