Critics' reviews

"A chilling study of loneliness and an acting tour de force for Price as the last survivor of a dead race"

Jerry Renshaw: Austin Chronicle
"Some would consider this version better than the 1971 remake with Charlton Heston, The Omega Man, but that isn't much of an achievement."

Jonathan Rosenbaum: Chicago Reader
"In spite of its painfully low budget, which results in numerous moments of unintentional comedy, 'The Last Man On Earth' is propelled into brilliance by Vincent Price's performance."

Ryan Lambie: Den of Geek
"So is 'The Last Man on Earth worth a look?' Absolutely. But if you are really craving a great telling of the story, stick with the book. It has the most teeth."

Steve Barton: Dread Central
