LAST MAN ON EARTH
WIDESCREEN VERSION (1964 - B&W - 86 min) Director: Ubaldo Ragona Starring: Vincent Price, Franca Bettoia, Emma Danieli, Giacomo Rossi-Stuart, Umberto Raho, Christi Courtland, Antonio Corevi, Ettore Ribotta, Rolando De Rossi
Synopsis: Based on Richard Matheson's SF thriller I AM LEGEND, THE LAST MAN ON EARTH is about a man who survives a global plague only to be stalked nightly by zombielike victims who call out his name. Vincent Price stars as Robert Morgan, a scientist who tried desperately to come up with a cure for an airborne virus that was killing people around the globe. Although he could not develop a serum in time to save his family, he himself seems to be immune from the disease. Thus, he is left to wander the streets by day, staking zombies, then barricading himself in his house each night as the zombies try to break in and kill him. Price is excellent in the role, going about his horrible business as if it were just another day: waking up and eating breakfast, putting on a suit, calmly staking the zombies, making dinner, listening to records at night. But when he suddenly sees what looks like another living soul out in the daylight, his world is suddenly turned inside out.

The Lodger (1944/B&W/84min.)
Director: John Braham
Starring: Laird Cregar, George Sanders, Merle Oberon, Sir Cedric Hardwicke, Sara Allgood, Aubrey Mather, Queenie Leonard, Doris Lloyd, David Clyde, Helena Pickard, Anita Sharp-Bolster.
Excellent remake, rivalling and many say better than Alfred Hitchcock's 1926 film version, based on Marie Belloc-Lowndes' novel. In 19th-century England, Slade (Laird Cregar) rents a room at the home of an old couple and goes about London killing young women. Unlike earlier versions of the Lodger story, Slade is really the one an only Jack the Ripper. This film was so well done and popular that Laird Cregar and George Sanders were teamed up again for a similar hit Hangover Square.
