“By night they leave their graves, crawling, shambling, through empty streets, whimpering, pleading, begging for his blood!
Do you dare to imagine what it would be like to be... the last man on earth... or the last woman?
Alive among the lifeless... alone among the crawling creatures of evil that make the night hideous with their inhuman craving!”
“HOW MUCH HORROR CAN YOU FACE?
...where lifeless hands reach out for the warmth of human flesh
...where terror walks on tiptoe begging for the blood of...
The Last Man on Earth!”
A plague devastates life on Earth and turns all of humanity into the living dead!
Dr. Robert Morgan is the sole unscathed human survivor on the planet.
For three years his daily routine consists of killing the zombie-like creatures by night and fortifying his house for his own safety by day.

But is there any point to all this?
It seems that the odds are against this last remnant of humanity……
