Review

"Human ugliness is more than skin-deep here, and Morgan's ultimate foes aren't the undead but rather a group of infected-but-treated men and women who consider him an enemy—ironic, considering they're the only ones left with the capacity for reason and communication. Morgan's solitude was bad enough when it was thought that his was the last mind capable of such things, and the revelation of these semi-humans' intent to dispose of him further amplifies it. The Last Man on Earth is indeed about both life and death, creation and destruction, and the fact that each facet is as grim and uninviting as the next is its most chilling statement on the way things once were and the way they might one day become." - Michael Nordine, Not Coming to a Theater Near You
