What a shame. And to think most people associate "I am Legend" to the movie is pretty sad. Jeez, right after Ray Bradbury...
RIP Richard Matheson

I didn't know that! Shit I've read, I think I've read, every one of his short stories and screenplays that I could get my hands on. "I am Legend" depresses the hell out of me not because of it's content but because it is one of the most masterfully written things ever and yet all they do is trample on it with bad movies leaving millions who would rather see the movie than read the book wondering what all the fuss is about.
Well it's not like he died really young or in a tragic accident but still, this is gonna drag me down for a while.
I NEVER EVERT EVER get emotional but I'm a big fucking mess right now.
