I Am Legend (10/10) Movie CLIP - Alternate Ending (2007) HD

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Robert (Will Smith) realizes that the infected still have a shred of humanity and that he is the one who has been the monster for taking and experimenting on them.

FILM DESCRIPTION:
Adapted from acclaimed author Richard Matheson's influential novelette of the same name, Constantine director Francis Lawrence's I Am Legend follows the last man on Earth as he struggles to survive while fending off the infected survivors of a devastating vampiric plague. A brilliant scientist who raced to discover a cure for the man-made virus as humanity came crumbling down all around him, Robert Neville (Will Smith) was inexplicably immune to the highly contagious superbug. Now the entire population of New York City -- and perhaps the world -- has been transformed into carnivorous bloodsuckers that fear the light and live solely to spread their contagion to any remaining living creature that crosses their path. It's been three years since civilization came to an end, and the loneliness has taken a devastating toll on Neville. By day he scours the city for food and supplies while sending out desperate radio messages in hopes that someone might respond, and by night he attempts to find a way to reverse the effects of the virus by experimenting with his own blood. But time is running out for Neville as the legions of infected watch his every move from the safety of the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. They, too, long to learn the secret that lurks in Neville's blood, though they will have to take caution while attempting to procure it because Neville will sooner die attempting to slay every last one of them than willingly giving up a single drop. Previously adapted for the screen in the 1964 Vincent Price frightener The Last Man on Earth and the 1971 Charlton Heston action film The Omega Man, Matheson's novelette also served as the inspiration for George A. Romero's groundbreaking zombie classic Night of the Living Dead.

The true ending, from the book... is much scarrier.

It has the woman sell Neville out to the monsters. It turns out the monsters where not only intelligent, they had their own society. They where more like vampires than actual zombies.

Neville's experiments made him look like a monster to them. So they sent the woman to find out his location.

When she does, they came and took him in his sleep to their compound. Where he was to be tried in a court for his crimes.

He is found guilty of murder and experimenting on live subjects. And sentenced to death. The woman comes to apologize for the deception, and gives him a pill to make his death painless.

In his last moment, he says to himself:

" In the end, I am the monster. I am the one they feared.

I AM LEGEND"

“Keep my wife’s body out of your f^*king lab!”

[geostorm]

Man they should have kept this ending, it's amazing. Both realize the other isn't a monster like they thought. It's a really deep scene

[Goodbye]

I love both endings. One portrays him as the hero who made a Nobel sacrifice, the other portrayed him as an accidental villain but showed that the monsters do have a bit of humanity left in them

[Anoldaccount]

He said: “ahhh”
She said: “Ah Ah”

How Romantic🤧

[TheRealGuywithoutaMustache]

These zombies were lucky it wasn't John Wick's dog

[J_C_CH]

I like how his human voice actually comes out at 2:25, and Neville's reaction to it implies he didn't know that was still possible either.

[ilarenvv]

this movie really showed the meaning of “you either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain.”

[MikeLocke]

I swear, I was today years old when I realized there was an alternate ending (after seeing a tweet that Smith and Michael B Jordan working on a sequel)

[donegal]

At 2:49 that shot/moment is what makes this ending great. You can feel the rage from the alpha male in his scream, and the transition to Neville's face, but not just Neville's face, but focusing on the number of people/darkseekers that neville has killed in the process of trying to find a cure; the number of people that would be considered family to the alpha male and his 'followers'; and at the end of it, the darkseekers were the ones who were able to walk away from the conflict, as seen here, which further reinforces the book ending which paints Neville as the villain. Beautiful film, I only wish that this was the confirmed real ending of I Am Legend rather than the typical hollywood crap we got in the original ending.

[hotboxyay]

2:50 Humanizing the vampires was a nice touch and this shot really pokes at the heart. They go from simply being test subjects to having a real identity: somewhere all of those subjects had someone they cared for in a communal sense. Brothers, sisters, friends and now we see they are capable of having emotions. They weren’t just angry and completely barbaric, The main vampire seemed to be hurt and discomfort by seeing his mate in a state of pain and I only imagine that seeing hundreds of his kind on a wall as test subjects, presumed to be dead, only made him even more furious. Yet they had enough of a moral conscious to let him go. This is the ending they should have went with, it would have been a great twist and a even better message: Don’t get so caught up in fighting monsters that you become one.

[TweebyRandom]

When you finished all the side quests and unlocked the good ending

[mrityunjoysen]

The thumbnail looks like :
"Call me an a**hole one more time"
😂😂😂

[johnbaker]

Props to the brave film crew. Must have been dangerous to film this. Some heros don't wear capes, some hold cameras.

[dresden]

Such an amazing scene! That cut to the wall filled with pictures of his experiments is just chilling, and it really helps sink in just how atrocious his actions actually were and how horrific he must have seemed to the creatures!. While we initially saw his tests as hope to save others, in the end he was actually an unstable scientist experimenting on and ultimately killing sentient beings who weren't even bothering him. This ending flips the script; making the hero into a villain and hits you like a ton of bricks :)

[povilas]

He surivived 3 years with dog, 1 day with woman

[ronaldgabriel]

It took me 13 years to find out that there is an alternative ending.

[patriot]

For anyone that hasn’t read the books this is so accurate because in the book the walkers view Neville as the monster because he hunts them mercilessly during the day. While they do try to kill him in return it was only out of survival considering he was attacking them to. In the end they use a woman who is half vampire half human to seduce him and get him to lower his defenses and in the end show him that humanity is gone but the vampires society is taking over.

[halfricasveryown]

Who else came here after Will announced I Am Legend 2 is coming? 🤣

[riswanda]

When you realize a zombie have a girlfriend while you still single
