I believe everyone knows Stephen King. You know, the world-famous horror writer. You might also know that the most of the movies and TV-shows based on King's material tend to be below average in quality. Unfortunately, (Stephen King's) The Mist (2008) also falls on this list of potential chillers.

The Mist's plot goes pretty much like this: one night a storm comes, the next mourning The Mist comes, something in The Mist kills people, everyone go hide in a food store and try to stay alive. That's it. There's really nothing else I could say about the plot to make it sound more interesting. Basically The Mist is a monster movie where creatures, of all size and shape, hunt and eat people and for some, unexplained reason, there is mist wherever these monsters occur.

There is also a tribute to Drew Struzan (probably stole the idea from NC :D ) at the beginning of the movie, where we can see the main character,  David Drayton (Thomas Jane), painting the cover/poster/illustration art for The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. You can also see The Thing on the background wall. I think this was rather weird and I have no idea why it is there, since I haven't checked the dvd extras about this consern yet.

I'm back, with another review, this time of "The Mist".

When I went to see this movie last night I had no idea what it was about, which made the experience even better.
