The Omega Male is often the last man standing. Socially he's sometimes seen as an outcast, or a loner. He's the James Dean character of Jim Stark in "Rebel Without a Cause." He's sometimes the type of man who's able to survive in extreme situations that require an uncanny degree self-sufficiency. The archetypal omega male is exemplified in the 1971 film "The Omega Man." The Omega Man (stylized as The Ωmega Man) is a 1971 American post-apocalyptic action film directed by Boris Sagal and starring Charlton Heston as a survivor of a global pandemic. It was written by John William Corrington and Joyce Corrington, based on the 1954 novel I Am Legend by Richard Matheson. The Omega Man is the second adaptation of Matheson's novel. The first was The Last Man on Earth (1964), which starred Vincent Price. A third adaptation, I Am Legend, starring Will Smith, was released in 2007, and "borrowed" this film's tagline.
