The Mist is a movie based on the 1980 novel by Steven King. The name Steven King alone in synonimous with excitement, surprise, and obvious twists and turns in the storyline.
The Mist basically tells the story of a small town that is engulfed in this sort of thick white mist, where you can’t see 2 feet in front of you. The movie is basically set around a group of people trapped in a convenience store trying to figure out what is going on and what is in the mist after a villager comes in screaming “there is something in the mist!”
The movie has great action, suspense, and drama, as well as a crazy old lady that just makes you want to shoot something at the screen (played by the remarkably talented Marcia Gay Harden)! Other actors to watch for are Thomas Jane, Laurie Holden, and Toby Jones.
This makes the movie great entertainment for all you Steven King fans, and for those who don’t know Steven King, this movie is a definite good initiation to him…you’ll see what I’m talking about once you’ve seen the movie.
So get up and go rent this movie today…don’t forget to go to the bathroom before watching the movie and make sure you don’t watch it ALONE….it’s much more fun to watch with agroup of friends!
This movie receives 4 popcorns out of a possible 5!
