The preview was atrocious. The movie was exceptional. I haven't read the novel.
This movie explores how humans react in a crisis situation. It is very relevant to social situations in a scenario like peak oil. It has a dim view of the future, but also offers some hope. Highly recommended. |

| So don't tell us the ending, but what exactly is the catastrophe? |

| It's an unfinished Steven King short story. |

Don't read King's stories. Their' too slow and boring.
The Mist had some standard horror components that were pretty average and I think the mass psychosis went a bit overboard but the ending was 8/10. (I don't like the normal hollywood endings. Look how they butchered the body snatchers with Invasion.)
