After a bad storm that puts a tree through his studio window, David Drayton (Jane), his son Billy (Gamble), and neighbor Brent (Braugher) head into town to get some supplies from the supermarket. Once there, the mist that they saw rolling across the lake has made it into town and engulfs the store. The terror level is upped when a man runs into the store with blood on his face, screaming that there is something out there. Indeed, there is, and soon those trapped in the store see what it is. To make matters worse, a religious fanatic by the name of Mrs. Carmody (Harden) is stirring up some of the customers with her talk of the end of the world. David finds himself looked to for guidance, and when things seem to be as bad as they can be, things get worse. Director Frank Darabont takes another stab at a Stephen King story, this time a horror story, and succeeds quite well. Like "The Shawshank Redemprion" and "The Green Mile", "The Mist" is a faithful adaptation of the source material, with an added on ending that may or may not work for viewers. I, for one, enjoy endings of this nature, but am not sure that it was the right ending to tack on the end of this particular story. The acting is solid all around, especially Marcia Gay Harden as the disturbing Mrs. Carmody. The film has its share of monsters, but the scariest ones are inside the store, not outside it. "The Mist" works because it is a smart thriller, directed by an excellent director. I recommend this film. The blu ray picture quality is outstanding.Read full review
Lucky purchase for me, finding anaffordable Canadian bluray of this movie, when used versions of the American version are so overly priced.

If your a horror buff you'll love this one, and as always Stephen King is a great writer.

This movie was really good! I especially liked the really F#cked up ending, like it is completely messed up. I guarantee when you see the ending you will have your mouth open like, "Oh My God", Probably say to your self, "that's messed up". But this is not like most of the films out there, one of the better Stephen King films. The only thing I disliked was..... Well nothing really, all and all it was pretty great.
This went out of print a long time ago, and the prices for it can be outrageous. The disc's are both mint, so I'm glad I finally own it.
