i haven't seen the will smith version, but i remember bein terrified as a kid seein vincent price's 'last man on earth' version of 'i am legend'
and 'the incredible shrinking man' was terrific. but (are ya sitting down?) it's bein remade with.....eddie murphy. oy.
was 'stir of echoes' film any good?
speilberg's 'duel' was classic of course.
