Finally, a ghost story/horror to look forward to

Apparantly the films a lot different from the book, ho hum, as long as its good :) Ive been waiting for them to make a film out of The Mist for years, its one of Kings best short stories. That trailer looks good, love vampy flicks and Josh Hartnetts always a bonus:D
 
Indeed. The Mist always read like a screenplay so it's surprising it's taken so long to make it. I wish someone would do a decent version of Salem's Lot too.

Apparently The Mist ending is very bleak but then the one in the original story was hardly positive was it?
 
I like the ending of The Mist, i really hope they dont give it a rewritten hollywood ending. They've got a good director so hopefully it'll still have that b-movie-ish vibe that the story has.:)
 
Looks good but i can see some references from, The Shining.

Check out the lighting in the bedroom near the beginning with the orange wall paper and the positioning of the lamps, almost identical to the Torrences bedroom.
 
the short story its based on is very good as are most of king's short fiction.also look out for the mist from frank darabont another king short story.
 
It looks dreadful from the trailer.

They should have stopped the trailer at the point where he is unlocking the door to the room and left the audience wondering what is to come.

Instead it just looks like another film with a lot of noise and special effects, and the obligatory cute little kid. :yawn:
 
It's a good film, watched yesterday and enjoyed.
I wouldn't go as far as saying it's scary but some people mind find it that.
