Say, any folks seen this? I know it's been out a long time; we saw it at the discount theater. Man that was freaky. I don't know about you but mannequins have always Totally Freaked me out man! They played a prominent role in the film. I wonder if Neville put them in some places, or if the infected folks put them out and around as 'bait' to attract any remaining humans? The film really played on my 'social senses' as a human.


Overall it was a good movie I think.


Later!

Of course the "vampires" put them out as bait! They put the very ones from

the video store, that Will's character was talking to, out on the street,

just to freak him out. He should have been smart enough not to fall for it.

You should read the book rather than watch the movie. It is 100 times better.

First because there is no happy end in the book :D

Second because the movie misses the "prophetic" dimension : the humans_as_we_know_it being replaced by new_humans that are seen as animals or dead bodies by Neville, who is the last old_human, the legend.

Pretty much covers it, I think.
