I Am Omega
I Am Omega is a 2007 American science fiction film directed by Griff Furst. The film falls under the post-apocalyptic genre and is loosely based on the classic novel I Am Legend by Richard Matheson.
Plot[edit | edit source]
The story follows the protagonist, Renchard, portrayed by Mark Dacascos, as he navigates a world ravaged by a deadly virus that has turned most of the population into zombies. Renchard, who is immune to the virus, must fight to survive and find a way to potentially save humanity.
Production[edit | edit source]
I Am Omega was produced by The Asylum, known for their low-budget, direct-to-video films. The movie was released as a mockbuster to capitalize on the release of the big-budget film I Am Legend starring Will Smith.

- Mark Dacascos as Renchard

- Jennifer Lee Wiggins as Brianna
- Ryan Lloyd as Dr. Duke

Legacy[edit | edit source]
Despite its shortcomings, I Am Omega has gained a cult following among fans of post-apocalyptic and zombie films.
