Below is a link to the ‘original’ ending for this movie. It is SO MUCH BETTER. It touches upon the actual legend concept, where the main character is supposed to be legendary, being a vampire hunter and literally the last person alive. I had not read the book but the way things were shaping up, I seriously thought it was going to end something like this alternative ending.. i.e. he was going to actually save them or whatever, by showing them the girl vampire was healed…
I guess I just have to say, Fuck you, Hollywood. Movies that don’t explode in the end can have a climax, too.
If you saw this movie, you really need to watch this alternative ending, it changes everything. Really a pity haha.
I actually really loved I Am Legend quite a damn bit. I think I saw it around three times in theaters and loved it more each time. Up until the point where Alice Braga’s character appeared, I was enjoying it so much that I was considering making a spot for it on my best of 2007 list. However, by the end, I wasn’t as sure. The scene at the end where the vampire creatures break into Robert Neville’s lab is intense and amazing, and I enjoyed it, but it wasn’t how it should have played out.
This ending below is what we should have seen.
