I caught this old black and white classic the other day, burned out from hours researching the new Lara Croft movie. I was in a rather bleak mood, since hearing the passing's of Katharine Hepburn and Buddy Hackett. So I walked away from my computer, popped open a beer, and flipped through the cable channels for something appropriate to watch ... The Last Man on Earth , starring Vincent Price ... this sounded promising. I am not particular to older films void of color, but on this late afternoon I needed something gloomier than I felt.
