I Am Legend: The Science Fiction Film That Transformed Hollywood in 2007

Despite the enormous success of Resident Evil in video games and cinema, the genre of zombies was not the most important film in Hollywood in 20007, until this epic science fiction film starring Will Smith appeared in theaters. I’m legend It is one of those films that transformed the world, and today you can see it on Amazon Prime Video.

In December 2007, I’m legend debuted as one of the most anticipated films in history, as the idea of ​​a world that succumbed to the zombie apocalypse had not been exploited on the big screen.

Before the end of the world, humanity celebrated that scientists found the cure for cancer, but The miracle quickly turned into a nightmare. Those who took the cure began to mutate their bodies: they lost their hair and sanity, their body mass reduced, and their skin turned white.

With a budget of more than 150 million dollars and profits of more than 580 million, I’m legend It is one of the most successful and remembered films in Will Smith’s career., and despite this we are still waiting for a sequel. Be that as it may, the legacy of the film continues to appear year after year in pop culture, from the bleak sepia color on the first posters of The Walking Deadto the way in which cities are recovered by nature in The Last of Us o Horizon.
