'the omega man' w. c. heston (remake of 'last man on earth') has an african-american female lead (turns into a zombie). bill duke has a role in 'predator' (contrast to romero characters??). and don't forget lt. uhura!!! in novels there's rbt. heinlein's 'farnham's freehold' sort of like planet of the apes except post-apocalypse the blacks rule and make payback trouble for the white protagonist who emerges from his bomb shelter, w. nuclear family in tow natch. outrageously racist, but thus fascinating in what it reveals... never made into a film afaik (and probably a good thing...) ---- To sign off Screen-L, e-mail [log in to unmask] and put SIGNOFF Screen-L in the message.
