The Omega Man

Charlton Heston has to survive in a post-apocalyptic dystopia, with nothing but his wits, his eight-tracks, an unlimited supply of gas and cars, a machine gun, and of course those blinding teeth.  I bumped this up a notch or two for the '70sness (including clips from the Woodstock documentary) and sheer WTFery.  This is based on Richard Matheson's novel I Am Legend, and, yes, I gave the Will Smith version a C.  Boris Sagal directed this version.
