n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

Seems like every sentence uttered begins with the other person's name. Real people don't speak like that. At least, no one I know does. So it sort of doesn't allow you to see the movie as real. Which is fine, as long as you don't mind that. But for me, it ruins the movie experience. That said, it is watchable, unlike many other horrible films. Good as a 'B' movie for your saturday matinee double feature. At only an hour long, you won't get sick of the crappy dialogue before it ends.

Taking a look at a Mill Creek box set that a very kind IMDber had given me as a gift,I spotted a title which sounded like a fun riff on I Am Legend,which led to me getting ready to meet the last woman.The plot:Wanting to get away from his legal woes, Harold Gern decides to take his wife Evelyn & his lawyer Martin Joyce. Resurfacing,Harold,Evelyn and Martin find that the captain of the boat has suddenly died.Reaching shore,they discover that whilst they were scuba diving,a mysterious event took place,which killed everything on earth.Finding themselves to be the last men and women on earth,Harold and Martin start fighting for the affections of (Eve)lyn.View on the film:Filmed as director Roger Corman was in Puerto Rico,Corman does well at sketching out the apocalyptic wasteland,with tightly held corner shots perfectly showing the stark landscape of the destroyed world.Whilst he does well at setting up the post-apocalypse world,Corman disappointingly fails to inject the movie with any feeling of the years that go by for the trio being on their own.Dragged in to co-starring due to the script having to be completed whilst filming took place,the screenplay by Robert Towne takes its time revealing the fractures in Harold & Martin's battle of the alpha-males,which leads to a delicate,poetic final,as Evelyn discovers in a church the Adam she has been left with.Being left as the last woman on earth,a pretty Betsy Jones-Moreland gives a very good performance as Evelyn,who Moreland shows to have a breezy charm which is joined by a hard edge for survival.Fighting over Evelyn, Robert Towne gives a surprisingly good performance as Martin,with Towne giving Martin a real unease over Harold's treatment of Evelyn,and Antony Carbone giving a great brittle performance as Harold,who fights with Martin to be the last man on earth.

Last Woman on Earth is a well-written post- apocalyptic science fiction, almost ruined by bad direction. The film was written by Robert Towne, who seemed to write Roger Corman's best movies. It had a very interesting conflict between the last two men on Earth fighting over the last woman. It had a some very tense scenes, with some dark humour sprinkled in. The characters, however, required very good actors to play their roles, and the acting, to be honest, sucked. The two male leads talked in an annoying Keanu Reeves-style monotone, and while the female lead was a little better, she's barely given anything to do. That, along with some weird editing choices, Corman's trademark padding, and the fact that the movie could've been way creepier, this just ended up a mildly entertaining b-movie.Roger Corman fans might find some enjoyment in this, just don't be expecting something like A Bucket of Blood.

The problem was this movie was that the idea was rather silly. There is a short out of air in the World allegedly causing everyone else to die. What about all the other hundreds of people scuba diving at the exact same time? What about people who happened to have breathing tanks? I guess this movie was entertaining in a silly way. It would be hard to believe that after just a week of being sex starved the husband and his lawyer would be fighting tooth and nail after the wife.The movie attempted to have a philosophical debate between the control freak businessman-husband and the near beatnik lawyer. All and all, this was a silly movie. However, I guess because it was made fifty years ago, it at least didn't have senseless violence, etc. It would have made a really awful remake.
