The Mist or the best of horror movies

The Mist is a cinematographic enactment of the eponymous novel of Stephen King , but with a major change of the end which made the denouement more tragic.

I v watched the movie , but i won't ask people to watch The Mist if they won't re-watch it , cuz it is a real opus of thoughts .

I believe that when we find good art or company, time is the last thing we think about , so is the case with The Mist.

One thought which is haunting the world is certainly that of falling under the control of religious fundamentalism. That theme is well embodied in the movie by Oscar-winner Marcia Gay Harden who played the role of a religious fanatic. Not only believing in the literal truth of the Bible, Mrs Carmody is also willing to practice human sacrifice as stated in the Bible. An innocent little child was the good sacrifice for her , being inspired by the biblical story of Abraham....

Apart from creatures there are other motives which make the characters feel fear in The Mist.

I agree that the ending was tragic. You ask, "If only........."

I never read the book but the movie didn't do much for me one the whole. The ending was great! Tragic irony and all. Not what I expected.
