The Last Man on Earth: The First Zombie Apocalypse Film (VIDEO)
In celebration of Halloween’s arrival in a few weeks, we will spotlight some cult classic horror and sci-fi films you might enjoy knowing about. Also, don’t forget that the Turner Classic Movies (TCM.COM) channel will be running a slew of good horror movies every Friday starting October 4, 2013, called “Friday Spooklight.”
Many consider George Romero’s zombie cult classic “Night of the Living Dead” (1968) to be the first zombie apocalypse movie (where zombies wander out of control eating the flesh of humans), but that is not true — the first zombie apocalypse film that served as the inspiration for “Night of the Living Dead” was writer Richard Matheson’s “The Last Man on Earth” starring Vincent Price, filmed in 1964 — four years before “Night of the Living Dead.”
Embedded below is the 1964 Vincent Price film in its entirety, which was restored and enhanced in 2008. The restoration DVD — featuring much more interesting stuff about this film — can be ordered on Amazon.com.
FILM NOIR: “Desert Escape”
Bill Carver and his traveling pal, Wolf. |
“Desert Escape” (also named “Marked Men”) is a very good low-budget movie made by PRC studios (known in the business by actors as “poverty row” for the studio’s reputation of producing fast low-budget films on the cheap). PRC came out with many “film noir” gems in the 1940s such as this one. The story is about Bill Carver, a young medical-school graduate, who was wrongly confined in prison. He escapes and hitchhikes the dry, dusty southern states for months on foot. While camping in the desert, Carver is befriended by a wounded dog who he names Wolf. In their travels, Carver and Wolf happen upon a small Arizona desert town where Carver finds work, a nice place to stay, friends and romance. This classic “film noir” movie can also be seen on The Internet Archive, where a high-res copy is available for download. If you like good old movies, this one’s for you.
