Speaking of "Omega Man," the character of Mateos (Anthony Zerbe), TV anchorman turned leader of the anti-technology vampires, was supposedly based on two legends in the business--George Putnam, longtime LA b'caster, & Lee Terry, Sr., Omaha TV anchor & father of the congressman. — PolitiTweet.org

Walking through DC's empty streets, I feel like Charlton Heston as Dr. Robert Neville in "The Omega Man"--but don't worry, I'm not carrying a machine gun! Saw it several times and especially identified with the villain--Jonathan Mateos (Anthony Zerbe), onetime TV journalist. — PolitiTweet.org

When I interviewed Charlton Heston, he recalled how in "Omega Man," he experienced the first interracial kiss on screen with co-star Rosalind Cash--who went to the same high school in NJ as my friend & longtime colleague Linda Jenkins. — PolitiTweet.org
