The Mist: There’s Something In The Mist
By George Robbins
[usr 4.2]
This is one of my favorite Stephen King adaptations, and from what I’ve heard it’s one of his too. I remember the first time that I saw this film I was filled with suspense and anticipation. On top of that there were moments thrown in that just skeeved me out, but it was a welcomed experience. It is easily in my top ten list for horror films and that is mainly just because of the ending. The premise of the movie is one that is easy to follow right from the start and you already know that it is a horror film from the first couple of minutes. There is also an air of mystery surrounding the events going on in the film, and this just ends up making it more engrossing as time goes on. ‘The Mist’ is a film that makes you want to keep watching for that same reason. It is not a film with no faults whatsoever, but it is a movie that I think is an absolutely necessary watch just so that people can understand what a terrifying situation can do to make people go insane. This is easily a horror film mixed with a film on human behavior in social situations that should be studied so that people are aware of what other people will do in desperate times.
