The Mist Horror Movie Review

The Mist Horror Movie Review

The Mist is a Horror movie based on a Steven King novella. This is one of those survival horror movies. It shows you some ways in which the people react to a crisis. Some come together, others break down and act stupid. In this case, the characters took a more apocalyptic approach to the whole mist situation. The origin of the monsters is never explained. Nor does it have to be explained. For our purposes, it is best to focus on the characters.




Now, let us begin. The movie starts with a terrible storm. It is followed by a creepy mist. Our main character is a father and his kid. The earlier storm had caused some damage to his property. He took his kid to the store to buy supplies. As he drove along, the mist grew. Eventually, he made it to the store and thus bought the supplies. When he was about to get out there comes a guy screaming. He is frightened by something inside the mist.

He tells them all to stay inside. Some try the experiment of leaving. However, they do not return. Only one person does venture to go outside. A mother leaves to find her two children back at home. On the meantime, there is this doomsayer old hag who starts making things worse. Eventually, the people inside the market do start seeing parts of the mist monsters. From then on, the movie is pretty simple. The mist ,for its tension and crazy characters, deserves 5 stars rating. The ending was a real bummer.
