The movie was a total 60&#8217;s b-grade spy film parody where Vincent Price plays the role of the super villain out to take over the world. You just need to see it. It&#8217;s all kinds of awesome. Apparently it&#8217;s also a sequel to another Dr. Goldfoot movie that was released a year earlier that we need to watch now because the first one is apparently even better from the reviews I&#8217;ve found. Both films are on Hulu as of the writing of this post (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.hulu.com\/watch\/13465\" target=\"_blank\">here <\/a>and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hulu.com\/watch\/13462\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of Vincent Price, we also recently watched <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/The_Last_Man_on_Earth_(1964_film)\" target=\"_blank\"><em>The Last Man on Earth<\/em> <\/a>(completing our <em>I Am Legend<\/em> related movie watching short of a the most recent direct to video production). I would have to say that all things considered this version seems to run closer to the book than any of the others. If you&#8217;re looking to watch these movies yourself I would say the canon (contrary to Wikipedia&#8217;s thoughts) would be:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>The Last Man on Earth<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>The Omega Man<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Night of the Comet<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>28 Days Later<\/em> (&amp; <em>28 Weeks Later<\/em>)<\/li>\n<li><em>I Am Legend<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>I Am Omega<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All of these are pretty awesome taken individually, and of course each has it&#8217;s own set of issues or variations on the book story. If you&#8217;re adverse to gory violence though, stay away from the 28 Days\/Weeks movies. On that note, I can&#8217;t say anything one way about goriness with the last one on the list as I still haven&#8217;t seen it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;ve watched a couple of Vincent Price films lately and ended up &#8220;discovering&#8221; a film that none of us had ever heard of called Dr. Goldfoot and the Girl Bombs.
