The Omega Man (1971)

7 PMThe Omega Man starring Charlton Heston
"The Omega Man" (1971) depicts an Earth two years removed from near total annihilation due to some tragically efficient biological warfare. The entire world population is wiped out except for the robust Richard Neville (Heston) and a few pasty urbanites that have been mutated into light-sensitive flesh-eating psychopathic zombies that call themselves The Family. Neville, a military scientist who had already been experimenting with a vaccine for himself, now searches for a cure for these dying zombies before he becomes the main course at the family meal. Free tickets for film are available at front desk beginning at 5:00 pm on a first come, first served basis.
