Some plague takes over the planet and everyone either dies or becomes these vampiric people who lose all their pigmentation and can only go out in the dark. I remember their leader was named Matthias. The Heston character has the antibody to the plague and a blood transfusion from him can cure the disease. Anyhow, it probably wasn't as well conceived of a dystopia, but it was a much scarier movie for my little 13-year old brain than "Soylent Green". Today, I'd probably find SG much more disturbing.
