'''''The Omega Man''''' is a [[science fiction]] [[dystopian]]-[[survivalist fiction]] movie starring [[Charlton Heston]].

The Omega Man is based loosely on the 1954 [[American]] [[author]] Richard Matheson classic [[Post Apocalyptic World]] [[dystopian]] [[survivalist]] [[fiction]] novel [[I Am Legend]]. An [[Amazon.com]] reviewer describes it as, {{cquote|"Taking place in the near future, the Omega Man imagines a world where the majority of the [[population]] has been wiped out by [[biological war]]fare. Those that have [[survival|survived]] have become albinos who can only come out at night. In a clever touch that has never really been given its due, their leader is a former TV news commentator named Mathias. Mathias has declared that the only way to purify the world is to destroy all reminders of their former life and that includes anyone who may not have been infected with the [[plague]]. At the beginning of the movie, that would appear to be all of one man -- a former [[military]] [[scientist]] played by [[Charlton Heston]] who spends his days driving through a deserted [[Los Angeles]] is search of both a cure and more humans. At night, he hides in his well-lit apartment while Mathias's mob angrily tries to force him out."<ref>https://www.amazon.com/Omega-Man-Charlton-Heston/dp/B000P0J0BU [[Amazon.com]] review.
