3rd time in my life

[gsh]

For only the third time in my life I walked out of a movie before it ended. Not that
I am Legend is a bad movie, but it was more
intense than I wanted to handle around the holidays.

13-y.o., recently-become-a-young-man, son saw it last night and crawled into bed with me about 3:00 a.m. after having nightmares about it.
It may be just as well that you left.

I plan on reading the book before seeing the film. I noticed that tends to take the edge off of such things.

BTW - what were the other 2.

I've never walked out of a film I've paid for, but there are times I wish I had. Hannibal was one of them. Natural Born Killers was another (my date had walked out, I was stubbornly curious. It was like watching a train wreck.)

I have, however, stopped watching rentals. Crash (the one that won awards) was one of them - It was dull and predictable and I didn't have the patience.

Gremlins, when they frappee'ed the gremlin in the blender and one went *splort* in the microwave, and the other was Dressed to Kill.

I got to see I am Legend this Sunday with Lindsey and liked it. Not master work of film, but entertaining.
It was a gory movie and can see why you might walk out.

The plot differs from the book and the other movies.
In the other tellings there are groups of intelligent vampires and Robert Neville is there scary monster that kills them in there sleep. Neville is Their Legend.
This one went in another direction with mostly animal like vampires.

There have been a number of movie adaptations of the 1954 book I am Legend.

The last man on earth (Vincent Price)
The Omega man (Charlton Heston) the first one I had seen.
I am Legend (Will Smith)
