Adapted from Richard Matheson’s novel of the same name, I Am Legend follows the last man on Earth as he struggles to survive while fending off[挡开] the infected[被感染的] survivors of a devastating[破坏性的] plague[瘟***].
Robert Neville is a brilliant scientist, but even he could not contain the terrible virus[病毒] that was unstoppable, incurable[不能治愈的]…and manmade. Somehow immune[免***的], Neville is now the last human survivor in New York City…and maybe the world.
But he is not alone. He is surrounded by “the Infected” victims of the plague. These victims have turned into carnivorous[食肉类的] beings who can only exist in the dark and who will devour[狼吞虎咽地吃] or infect anyone or anything in their path.
It’s been three years since civilization came to an end, and the loneliness has taken a devastating toll[造成损坏] on Neville. By day, he scours[走遍(某地)搜寻] the city for food and supplies while sending out desperate radio messages in hopes that someone might respond. By night, he attempts to find a way to reverse[逆转] the effects of the virus by experimenting with his own blood.
All the while, the Infected hide in the shadows, watching Neville’s every move, waiting for him to make a fatal[致命的] mistake. Perhaps mankind’s last hope, Neville is driven by only one remaining mission: to find a way to reverse the effects of the virus. But his blood is also what the Infected hunt, and Neville knows he is outnumbered[数目超过] and quickly running out of time…
Behind the Scenes Look at I Am Legend
Go behind the scenes of I Am Legend with details on the film shoot from an extra[临时演员] who was there in the middle of all the action.
We were the last human beings attempting to escape from New York City. A virus was let loose[放出] on the world, and has infected everyone with a plague which turns normal people into zombies[行尸]. As the last survivors, we stream down Dover Street toward the East River.
Straight ahead of us, Blackhawk helicopters are transporting[运送] the last few thousand of us away, landing on a pier[码头] jutting[突出] out under the Brooklyn Bridge. Panic ensues[接着发生] as we attempt to flee[逃走]. Police and armed soldiers hold us back while they seek to maintain control; but the crowd surges[汹涌向前] forward.
Captain Robert Neville makes it through. We all try to follow. Then, then -- it’s all over. Our chances destroyed. Our despair[绝望] palpable[可感觉到的].
Alas, we return to our tents, for we are really the extras who bring Richard Matheson’s short novel I Am Legend to life. This is our story.
《末日传奇》根据理查德・马瑟森同名小说改编,讲述了地球上最后一个人类一边抵抗在一场毁灭性瘟***中受到感染的人群,一边挣扎求存的故事。
罗伯特・内维尔是一名杰出的科学家,然而即使是他也无法阻止恐怖病毒的蔓延。这种人造病毒来势凶猛,而且无法治愈。由于某种原因,内维尔对这种病毒产生了免***能力。现在他是纽约市……甚至是世界上最后一个幸存者。
不过他并不是独自一人,而是被瘟***的受害者――“感染者”包围。这些受害者变成了一种凶残的肉食动物,只能生活在黑暗中,时刻等待吞噬和感染他们遇到的一切生物。
人类文明终结已经三年了,孤独寂寞蚕食着内维尔的身心。白天,他一边在城里穿梭,寻找食物和其它补给,一边绝望地发出无线电信号,希望有人回应。夜晚,他用自己的血液做实验,希望寻找逆转病毒效果的方法。
与此同时,在黑暗中,感染者一直盯着内维尔的一举一动,等待他犯下致命的错误。内维尔也许是人类世界的最后一个希望,他担负着唯一一个使命:寻求逆转病毒效果的方法。然而,感染者也对他的血液虎视眈眈,他也知道自己寡不敌众,时日无多……
《末日传奇》幕后探班
让我们跟随一位参加过《末日传奇》所有场景演出的临时演员走到幕后,了解这部电影拍摄的相关细节。
我们是纽约市最后的人类,试***逃出这座城市。一种可怕的病毒在全世界蔓延开来,每一个被瘟***感染的正常人都会变成僵尸。作为最后的幸存者,我们沿着多福街向东河前进。
在我们正前方,黑鹰直升机在布鲁克林大桥下突出的码头上着陆,正在运送最后几千个幸存者。在我们撤退的时候发生了骚乱。警察和全副武装的士兵在维持秩序时把我们拦住了,但人群还是不断向前冲。
罗伯特・内维尔找到了出去的方法,我们都想跟着他。然后,然后――一切都结束了。我们错失了逃离的机会。我们的绝望溢于言表。
唉,我们回到自己的帐篷,因为我们其实是临时演员,正在把理查德・马瑟森的短篇小说《末日传奇》搬上大屏幕。这就是我们的故事。
