I Am Legend. Whenever a movie has a bunch of flashback scenes it means it was likely adapted from a book and was cut down for the sake of brevity, which is the case here. In most "zombie" movies there is a gratuitous gross-out factor but this one was special in that it managed to humanize the afflicted population. It was suspensful, and scary, but it wasn't a horror movie or a gore-fest by any means.

The hero seeks to cure them, and avoids having to kill them whenever he can. I want to see more of that moral struggle, and the additional obstacles faced by the outlying communities of survivors dealing with the chaos in the cities.
