About the work

I Am Legend

Robert Neville believes he is the last man alive after a plague has turned humanity into vampires. By day he hunts them in their sleep in a ruined Los Angeles suburb and searches for a scientific cause; by night they besiege his house. In the end he discovers that to the new society he is the monster of legend.
