I disagree about this version of the film-I think it's great and IMO the very best version.A true classic.Using this song to go with vid highlights was pure genius.
The aspect seems off on this video, but considering what you had to work with, good job! :) Looking forward to seeing them on the 28th at Tioga Downs here in upstate NY.
nice...i've always been a BOC freak (got the kronos tattoo on the back of my neck to prove it)...this is one of their all time underrated songs, done in the BOC style i like the best...that merger of psychedelic and rock with the otherworldly lyrical content.
an aside...speaking of great musicians...did anyone here know that mike patton (faith no more, tomahawk, mr. bungle, etc.) did the creature voices???? don't pretend it wasn't pure bloody brilliance to be coming from a human voicebox.
What I found amazing is the hidden message in what she said.
She says "yes we have cured the cancer" and then this movie cuts to a scene where almost all people are dead. . . as if indirectly implying that human race is the cancer that got irradicated.
omg you have edited this so well. I love your rendering of the black and white scenes. You have done a marvelous job. Even the ending as you mixed up the movie soundtrack made this a superb video. Just lved it. Oh ok now do you have the rest of the SNL version of Dont fear the Reaper?? I would love to see that again in its completed form. I have only found short snips of it.
And in response to your comment, sadly no. I did this video a long while ago and have sense deleted all the movie files from my computer. It is a great skit thought.
You know, this movie sucks so much ass, but this song and band is pure fuckin' great! BOC is the best. If you want to watch a good version of this movie then watch the one with Vincent Price or charleton heston. Or read the short story better.
@insidious234 Aw Man the story was bomb! But the movie was so far flung I'm not even gonna watch it. The story was way different. Apparently Will Smith should be white, blonde haired, talll, broad and eventually executed at the end for crimes against the society of vampires that rose up after man fell. They want him dead because he goes around during the day killing vampires in their sleep and all the vampires are terrified he'll kill them next. Funny way the story went. Everyone should read it.
@Korban3 Indeed, they have the "I am legend" title, but then change the story so it no longer makes sense. In the original the title referred to Will Smiths character being a legend among the vampires, due to him killing/hunting them like you mentioned.
@HallPassExpired It's the worst adaptation of the short story by Richard Matheson. Read the short story and then tell me what you think of this movie.
I'd forgotten how good this song was- And appropriate images, indeed. I'd like to see this done with some clips from OMEGA MAN and LAST MAN ON EARTH as well, the other adaptaions of I AM LEGEND.
Wow! a virgin comment area! Let me be the 1st to say that I didn't care much for the movie but Will Smith is "The Man"! and I have always loved B.O.C.
BÖC one of my favorite rock bands ever! love em! :D

You are better stickin' with Premiere. Movie Maker is just cheap way to edit things together... nothing flashy or worth while really.
