It is, in the wider sense, a zombie film (the creatures might be infected rather than undead but we aren’t exactly sure).

However the reason for looking at it is that it was based directly on I am Legend, ...

Van Gogh’s Ugliest Masterpiece: A Break Down of His Late, Great Painting, The Night Café (1888)

Ask passersby to name a Vincent van Gogh painting off the top of their heads, and most will come up with works like The Starry Night, The Potato Eaters, one of his self-portraits (probably with his ear bandaged), or maybe the one with the smoking skeleton David Sedaris used for a book cover.
