Fun Stuff

Trivia:
The car that Renchard is driving at the beginning of the movie, as well as the convertible that he and Brianna take from the parking garage, are 1975 Oldsmobile Omega's. Obviously a reference to the tile of the movie. This model of the Oldmosbile Omega was produced from 1973-1979 and was not produced as convertible, having apparently had it's roof cut off for the film. more
Goofs:
Crew or equipment visible: During the initial fight scene with the zombie/vampires, Renchard is about to set a creature on fire that's hanging upside down, there is a VERY noticeable shadow on the ground, like another creature is coming after him, but no one appears. It had to have been a crew member walking in front of the spotlight. more
Quotes:
Renchard: Why don't you just shoot them all?
Vincent: Because that would be too easy.

FAQ

Why did Vincent and Mike want Renchard to help them rescue Brianna?
How did Brianna find Renchard's computer? Was he on her buddy list or something?
Why does Renchard go running out of the house in abject terror when he sees Brianna's broadcast on his computer?

Beats the fresh princes efforts hands down, 20 September 2008
Author: Seb from United Kingdom

This isn't a perfect movie by any stretch of the imagination but it's not bad and definitely a lot better than old jug ears effort. Here's why I'd rather watch this a million times than watch Will Smith doing his pitiful Shrek/nervous breakdown scene one more time.

The people in this film aren't computer generated and though they don't look great they don't look like computer game bad guys skating over the floor. This is a definite improvement. In the odd scene they actually look quite good.

It leaves the more philosophical aspects of the book and two films alone. Fair enough, it's not like we haven't seen it done and rather it was absent than messed up and garbled like Legend.

There's a small amount of chemistry between the characters, in Legend there's all the spark of a pair of rubber gloves rubbing together. The characters are all pretty simple but they do have a personality of sorts, again a step up from Legend.

Lastly the main character doesn't really express any emotions which is fair enough, I prefer that to the two faces Will Smith can pull off. You can accept a man who is totally robbed of emotion but it's harder to accept a man that only has two facial expressions and flicks through them and gets his movie described by some genius on here as "an acting buffet."

It's not a perfect movie, some bits are a bit weak but I genuinely enjoyed it so give it a chance you might like it too. For a cheap rip off it's surprisingly entertaining.
