Very good adaptation of a stunning Stephen King's novel., 16 March 2008
9/10
Author: HumanoidOfFlesh from Chyby, Poland

"The Mist" originally appeared in the 1980 horror anthology "Dark Forces" and was later reedited and included in the Stephen King short story collection "Skeleton Crew."Before making the leap to the silver screen,"The Mist" was also released as a fully dramatized audio version and served as an inspiration for the successful video game franchises "Half-Life" and "Silent Hill".A large group of people is trapped in a big shopping mall.Shortly after arriving at the packed supermarket a local runs through the doors screaming that "something in the mist took his neighbor."It seems that something very dangerous is hidden in the fog...Of course the trapped in a building formula is nothing new,but the idea of not knowing what has them trapped is utterly fascinating."The Mist" is atmospheric,incredibly well-acted and the use of "Host of Seraphim" by Dead Can Dance during the depressing climax is absolutely wonderful.9 out of 10.
