Just leaves me with MORE questions.......but an ok boook - Rated
Normally, when a film is based on a book I love the book so much more. But not this time. I have to say that I'm liking the film more this time. For anyone that hasn't seen the film or read the book........the book is nothing like the film.......and the film is nothing like the book.. If that makes sense?
The book is good, don't get me wrong. I was scared in parts. However, it's nothing like the film. If you're looking for similar, but better, read 'Salems Lot' by Stephen King.
The only thing the book and the film have in common is that they both involve a man who is probably one of the last few survivors after a virus strikes the population.
With both though, I'm left with lots of questions that aren't addressed and it's frustrating to be 'almost' at the point of knowing it all, but not quite having enough information. I read the book thinking that the unanswered questions from the film would be answered, but all it's done is given me more questions.
A wonderful collection - Rated
This book contains the original version of the story, and is not a book version of the story portrayed in the recent Will Smith movie, as the description above suggests. The only connection this book has with the 2007 film is the picture on its cover.
The ideas that Matheson presents in I Am Legend are truly thought-provoking and provide plenty of food for thought. Although the story is relatively short it will leave you thinking for hours afterwards. This printing also includes several of Matheson's short stories which are quick to read and instantly pleasing. This is a nice little collection and I enjoyed reading it a lot more than watching the movie.
