I LOVED this movie.

I haven't yet read the short story (I think it's included in "Skeleton Crew", right? I have that book, have yet to read it, though), but I absolutely loved the movie. I'm sure I will probably like the short story better when I do read it (I tend to like the books better than their film adaptions), but just judging it AS IS, I loved it. One of my all time favorite horror movies.

[GBPack1]

Yeah, it's in Skeleton Crew. I loved the movie too.
Enjoy the story!

The Mist is one of the best Stephen King adaptations I've yet seen. The ending was absolutely perfect and had one of the bleakest endings I've ever seen in a movie. For my money, Frank Darabont should be give first dibs on every SK adaptation from now on.

Hi,

Agreed and agreed, Frank Darabont is THE MAN!

Long days and pleasant nights

[ama_li]

i loved this too

[Sarlinov]

i like the book and this is a great adaptation, really good

but... (unpopular opinion i know) the ending is kind of ridiculous and spoiled it imo

the ending in the book is perfect for me

I've read the short story, and I must say (here it goes...) I liked the movie better. The Short story is very good but I like what Frank made with the base..you know the characters are easier to relate to , and many other things, plus the ending...I mean in any other flick, that kind of ending would make me say 'now come on..are you serious?' but here I was like...wow...Loved the picture, one of my favs

[doowopgirl]

I loved The Mist,too. It was never one of my favorite stories, but seeing the movie made me re read it and I enjoyed it more the second time around. I thought the movie ending was much better than the stories The Bids ending. Darabont is the MAN!

[JRM]

Just finished reading the short story yesterday, and I can't believe I'm saying this, but I liked the movie far better. I thought a lot of the changes that were made were excellent decisions, such as making David NOT cheat on his wife (that part in the book just angered me) and making him have some of the most critical ideas. He also seemed more courageous in the movie, it seemed. I also loved how the movie was more focused around Carmondy's influence, and how many of the lines were changed to different individuals. It created a sort of forboding feeling almost from the start. She felt more tacked-on in the book. And I just love how one particular scene was added at the right time. I wasn't particularly fond of the ending to the book, so I'm glad that got changed. The ending the movie just felt RIGHT. Well...not RIGHT, but you know what I mean. Lol.

This is very rear to me: I haven't read the story, but I saw the movie. The movie really is great, and I guess I have to read the story too, though I've never been a big fan of short stories, as a form of literature.

[Wilkes]

I watched the movie a couple of days ago. It's great according me. And very sad, it brings up alot of emotions like anger, hate and grief.

I give the movie
8/10

I loved this movie too. It's weird how a lot of his novels, turned in to movies, are portrayed just like I imagined them as I read the book. How uncanny. :wow:

[Merlina]

For me The Mist is one of the best short stories by SK. When I red the storie 2 years ago I was thrilled also especially by the open end, I could give my fancy full scope. it fired my imagniation. I think the movie is great, except the stupid end? For that matter I was dissapointed by the movie.

[brodie-meister]

I loved it...a very twisted ending though.

[jnote]

I loved the story and just saw the movie for the first time. I was shocked at the ending. After thinking about it, it was cool as it wasn't expected.
(My husband gets upset with me because I drag him to SK movies. He likes most of them, but didn't like Cujo and Pet Sematary. He just added The Mist to the movies he didn't like.)

This is one of my favorite SK short stories, I have read it many times. The movie was amazing, Frank is the man, but I have to admit, I was so shocked by the ending. I have a son just a little younger than Billy, and was not expecting that to happen. I was also 8 months pregnant with my second, and probably a little hormonal. Have become more sensitive to violence since having children. I have always found the ending of the story satisfying, but i suppose it is too much of an ambigious ending for the movie going public.

[Adrian]

The book was better in my opinion, but the end of the movie was GREAT!
:cool2:

[entaido09]

OMFG i skipped ahead and its like the ****ing gayest movie ever

[M2H]

I actually didn't like this movie at all...I love the novella a lot but this movie really was bad. It's too bad cause Darabont is a great filmmaker. He should have cast the movie better, more character depth, different ending (preferably the original King version), the CGI shots looked like "CGI shots."

I disagree. I think the movie was better than the story. The ending for the story was just weird and Darabont's idea was a good one. Even Sai King himself has said that had HE thought of that ending while writing the story, he would have written it that way.
