"Something wrong with Stephen King". He actually did not think up of this ending and was an aspect of the movie adaptation and he actually loved the change.

The ultimate message of this movie is to never give up hope. Giving up hope is why the ending is so tragic.

The dichotomy of Pat: 40:22 "Yeah, makes sense." 41:22 "He couldn't wait 5 minutes?!?"

They actually cast Melissa McBride as Carol because of her part in The Mist. Before this, she was actually a casting director who only appeared in small roles here and there. But because of her performance in this, they thought she'd be perfect for Carol specifically because of the Sofia storyline.

From Rana cussing in Arabic to Pat thinking sperm is flying in the air, this is one the funniest reactions I've watched. Lmao😂

Fun fact: The main character in this movie was going to be the original Rick Grimes. But his schedule conflicted at the time so they chose Andrew Lincoln. Frank Darabont likes to work with the same group of actors on all his projects.

Pat being so mad at the people who talked a big game as if he wouldn’t be one of the first to get eaten because he thinks he can fight the monsters off with his bare fists 🤣

Everybody: 😮😯😳😵 Chris: 🙂

To this day, there hasn't been an ending to a movie that has left me more shocked, devastated, and just in utter disbelief.

The ending is one of the most fucked up and most controversial endings in horror film history.

Fun fact: In Stephen Kings IT, Pennywise came from another dimension called the Macroverse, thousands of years ago. The creatures in the Mist also came from another dimension after the government opened a portal during the Arrowhead project. There’s a very good chance that that dimension was the Macroverse considering the fact that most, if not all, of Stephen Kings books are connected. That would mean these monsters and IT are from the same place. Very interesting.

I SWEAR THIS REACTION WAS OUT OF NOWHERE. LOVE THIS!

Imagine impressing the author so much with the movie that he considers the ending far better than what he had written! What a truly dark ending!

I saw this for the first time at work, years back when I worked over nights. I actually stood up and said out loud "SHUT THE F*CK UP", when that tank came rolling out of the mist, old sad ass song blaring back on that we'd been hearing. That man will never be right, he's gone, bro. If the eldritch terrors he witnessed didn't crack him up already, then the knowledge of killing his son and fellow survivors just minutes away from rescue, will surely have him in a padded cell the rest of his days. You don't transition back to doing art commissions for studios after that

Message at the end. Don't be so quick to abandon all hope. Help might be just around the corner... or 30 seconds behind you.

14:01 R.I.P Andre Braugher (captain Holt) 😢

You have to hand it to the woman who was determined to get back to her kids. She had some iron balls, and she actually made it to her kids as well. Then again, that’s Carol from “The Walking Dead,” so those creatures clearly knew better than to try that shit with her.

It seems you didn't quite find out so fun fact; the movie's ending was in fact NOT written by Stephen King, as the book had a totally different ending and Stephen King himself very famously commented after watching the movie's ending that he WISHES he'd come up with it.

Pat being the first one to fall for the cult is both hilarious and expected. He fell for the cult before the people in the movie -- and they're SCRIPTED to do it. 🤣🤣🤣

“I was state champion in 94.” -guy in the movie “Dude said he was a 94 time champion.” -Pat Pat is hilarious, man. 😂😂

Pat would definitely be tricked into joining a cult. 😂

I don’t understand how Pat survives everyday life

I remember watching this movie as a kid and lo and behold, the next day, when it was time to go to the bus stop, it was really foggy outside. I was f*cking terrified, but my momma said I still had to go to school.

The ending always gets people!

the mist is super good. Underrated. And everyone talks about the ending but the rest of the movie is great too.

People are saying the original ending was not as bleak, but it literally ends with the world being completely overrun with the Mist and humanity all dying, with an implication that the father was just happy to eventually die with his son.

If you see a Walking Dead actor call it out, 2 min later they show Andrea(Laurie Holden) no one says a word.

40:19 Thomas Jane nailed that absolute incomprehensible demoralization pained screams of woe. When I was deep in my alcoholism & wanted to die I’ve scream cried just like that. ^don’t worry y’all I’m sober & no longer depressed or suicidal.

If you want to adapt a Stephen King novel into a movie then get Frank Darabont. Shawshank, The Green Mile and The Mist are all bangers.

I love Pat being acting like he wouldn't have been Mrs Carmodys first disciple.

GUYS THE ARMY 🪖 GUY THAT GOT STABBED WAS THE VOICE ACTOR OF DARTH MAUL & STAR KILLER 👍🏿

MVP award in this movie definitely goes to Ollie. R.I.P.

Yup, Pat will be the first one to join the cult when SHTF

I love how they constantly scream "Don't scream" as though in a stressful situation you can control that

The ending man...

The Walking Dead season one up in here. Andrea,Carol,Morales and Dale.

Poor Rana and Navi were so scared. I want to hug them both

Something I really enjoy about this movie is that it’s like “Watch people turn against each other!” But really, it’s like, dog, it’s been 48 hours, can we not have a total break down of morals just yet? We’re already at child sacrifice? This shit literally just started. We don’t even know each others names yet enough to hate one another and we’re already forming sides and killing one another. Lol

This group absolutely has to see Midnight Mass.

Pat: "What if we just at the finish line right here?" 😮

Another thing I find interesting about this movie when I zoom my perspective out to a macro level is, you know how in super hero shows like Spiderman there are many situations where they accidentally open portals to other dimensions, even the movie Pacific Rim, and although things look bleak sometimes we usually see things from the perspective of the powerful hero of the movie. However the Mist, this movie shows you how normal people would experience the result of a portal opening up and allowing entities from it's dimension to invade us and we have nobody here with super powers.

The easter egg of the dark tower at the beginning is so fun to fans As you see, The Dark Tower is the physical represention of Gan, who is basically God in King's universe, and it's on charge of maintaining the equilibrium of all the worlds and universes Out of the limits of the Tower there's the Todash Darkness, where the chaos reigns, and a lot of demonic beings live. The main villain of the saga, the Crimson King, tries to destroy the beams of the tower to destroy all universes, causing a lot of these portals full of monsters to open in the normal world. Pennywise from It also comes from the Todash, The Outsider from The Outsider, Tak from Desperation, as well as a lot of King villains like Barrow from Salem's Lot.

Andrea, Dale and Carol from TWD❤

i saw this when i was like 13 the ending had me FUCKED up

I’m obsessed with the two people trying the beverage at the beginning! Now I’m wondering what they were drinking because they looked like they loved it.😂

Fun fact: The ending of the novel is just the characters driving with the main character noting he has 4 bullets left. Also, I'm just curious, but have any of you not seen Jaws cause that is a must watch?

THE MIST?!? I didn't even know I needed this.

Such an awesome reaction. You guys were so animated, I was grinning the whole time! I love how invested you were. So much fun.

I’m so glad this movie has gained popularity over time. Saw it in theaters & loved it for what it was, a great B movie. It was so rare to find anyone who had mostly positive things about this movie for a long time.

I love watching these guys panic in a situation they are not in😅

Yeah the ending really stuck with me for a long time, one of the ending I still remember vividly..

Rana was the only one who didn't make jokes about the ending.

I remember crying when I first saw this film. I laughed because I knew you all would be floored by the ending. I think you guys should react to "Abigail". I think it would be really entertaining.

I. love.. this ending... and I'll explain why. 1)the original books ending: leave 'em guessing, just a remark that there are 4 bullets the audience contemplates the awful repercussions; it's good narratively. the cult didn't know, the protagonists don't know; and you don't know either 2) you could have the tanks pull up right as they run out of gas after the "4 bullets" conversation; end it on a hopeful note, okay our protagonists chose wisely- never give up. It's a 'feels good man' the level-headed prevail type of story. not a rememberable story narratively, but it's a good lesson 3) you could have a creature from the Mist eat him afterwords: have an experience of real stunning apathetic dread of that feeling beyond hopelessness- respectable ending, that's a strong narrative and a bold thing to have for an audience 'no lesson- life happens then you die kid' But This to have this horrifying remarkable lesson that hopelessness can be wrong; and that this in itself could be worse that hopelessness can have absolute cost in the face of hope unseen. this ending is just so much more powerful than the first 2 combined it leaves you contemplative like ending 1 it stands to toe to toe lesson with 2 and it utterly OVERWHELMS 3 in efficacy. this ending was literally stunning the 1st time I saw it, just awe-inspiring dread, elevates this story to a masterwork of horror. I am 100% in agreement with Stephen King this ending trumps all the others, this was the STRONGEST ending to the story possible and i respect the shit out of those that wrote this.

A lot of people dont know but it was originally supposed to be in black and white which helps the effects look MUCH BETTER as well as creepier. The entire movie feels different when you watch it in that version which I think you can find online or DVD. I recommend it

41:26 Carol survive!!!! lmao ps. i could not believe you guys never saw this "good" movie before.

Was he at the finish line or did the sacrifice work?

i feel like every time pat is on a reaction, hes consistently and wildly wrong about everything UNTIL he drops one clairvoyant-level prediction that no one believes

It's kidda surprise when they've not watched this movie yet. The ending has been stucking in my mind for a very long time.

Remember seeing this with my dad at the movie theaters when it came out and when that ending happened… it left both of us shocked

Chris, that smile in the last scene was diabolical lolol

Absolutely devastating and legendary ending

Pat ruins every emotional moment in a reaction.

The end song is called the host of seraphim by dead can dance.

This won because everyone who has been traumatized by this movie wants everyone else to be traumatized by this movie, lol. A tree that size falling in a storm (that wasn't a hurricane/tornado or they'd have mentioned it), means that the roots were damaged. Either through something they did with construction on the property, or more likely a pest or illness.

Stephen King's ending just has them driving into the mist. King said he hated the movie ending, cos he wish he'd written it :)

Yall should watch "The Fog" 👀👀👀

Congrats Rana for the wedding 🎉🎉

13:49 "Hey God don't talk like that!" 😂 So be great, and I agree

21:42 Is a great mirror moment with Navi and Spidey throwing their heads back as Pat is gobsmacked in the middle.

Idc what anybody says you’re not waiting to be eaten alive when you have a gun sitting next to you. The ending was the most rational and logical thing to do. There has been no sign of help for days and your car died in the middle of a the mist you have no clue how far the mist has gotten and you’re hearing creatures outside. You’re not waiting. Trust me

Pat: Pffft - there is nothing scary about a mist. Also Pat: I'M GOING TO CHURCH!!

Spidey and Chris screaming at the baby spiders made my day 29:07

if you want to know the name of the song at the ending of the movie, it's called "host of seraphin by dead can dance"

Mrs. Carmody said they needed the kid for a sacrifice and The mist went away after the kid died...

The Dark Tower reference right at the top is one of my favorite in any Stephen King movie. Especially if you know the story of the Dark Tower, you know exactly why what's happening in this movie is happening. They opened a hole into the Todash darkness and that's where the monsters pour out from.

You need to watch this movie back to back with “Maximum Overdrive,” which works as an emotional pallet cleanser after “The Mist” and enables you to end things on a light note while sticking with the Stephen King theme.

When the movie was at cinemas as premiere movie and no one know the ending people left the auditorium completely silent. Most of them was broken for many next hours or days.

One thing I love about this movie is how incongruous the creatures are with respect to each other. They don't feel like some kind of ecosystem, they feel like they're from an entirely irrational place. Some kind of unnatural place that doesn't heed the laws of nature.

You guys should DEFINITELY watch/react to the French movie "Vermines" or "Infested" (english title). Seriously react to it with the French audio, eng subtitles. REALLY amazing infestation movie - WHOEVER IS ON THEIR PATREON, MAKE SURE TO SUGGEST IT!!

This is my favorite horror movie. The ending is so insane, and I just always enjoyed the classic B movie vibe. By the way, Frank Darabont also released a black and white version, which I think also fits the vibe pretty well. That's worth a watch if anyone can find it imo.

"You better tell her your name's Christina." The whole chat that starts at 33:00 had me in tears.

"...from the Dark Tower, right?" This is certainly the _only_ reaction that caught that. 👏 One of the other posters is Hitchcock's The Birds...which King's short story The Mist is a "remake" of.

whats interesting is that the movie is based on the book and the ending to the book there's at least hope. while still not a happy ending, the book finishes with them all inside an abandoned apartment trying to fall asleep scared as they hear all the creatures outside. at least then you could only imagine if they do or don't survive and this movie ending surprised the original author, and actually liked this ending better

54:24 he didn’t want to wait because his son was sleeping & he wanted his son to just never wake up / not experience fear. Priority A: monsters don’t get him. Priority B: kid doesn’t suffer/know he’s about to die

Someone said the crazy lady was actually right, cause if you think about it, everyone she said should die did die, and the last one was the kid, and all of it ended as soon as he did

We ABSOLUTELY need pat and rana reacting to the casper movies 😂. maybe even marketta and spidey w/ them.

This was not Kings ending in the book. Frank Darabont was the screenwriter and he changed the ending to this. Also he developed and executive produced The Walking Dead that is why you recognized some cast members from this movie were also in the walking dead. Do some research!

One of the darkest twist endings to a film ever.

I know it was a sad moment but I couldn’t stop laughing at Chris smiling at the reveal at the end.

Few things about the story/movie: - Carmody was right. Everything she said was true. "We want the boy!" They kill the boy, the mist clears. She was the villain, sure, but she was also 100 percent accurate with everything she said. - The army was driving the same direction the protagonists were. This means they already came from the Supermarket and most likely everyone within was rescued. - The movie was originally supposed to be in black and white. This would make the CGI less punishing and obvious.

You guys should watch The Mist Tv series. That would be fun, its only one season so it would go by pretty quick. Also this ending destroyed me as a kid, trauma. Also the line "Are you being Willfully Dense?" Has been a part of my normal speech since I was a kid.

Thats cicadas not locust and pats def the one that get bitten and hide it from everyone

I would have been in the hospital or dead if this was a drinking game everytime Pat said "Mist"😂😂😂

Rana's pull the ladder up energy cracks me up everytime

Carol, Dale, and Andrea from the walking dead. Then Electro gwen from Angel. Oh 💩, did y'all get that far on the show yet?

Fun fact: the novel have a diferent ending , but the movie diretor decide creat this more dark ending , the original ending the fuel not go out and theys continued and slowly the zoom go out showing The entire planet have this mist

27:26 I like it when Rana starts cursing in Arabic ... That means she genuinely shat her pants 🤣

I remember watching this in theaters when I was in HS with friends and we were all like yo that was kinda fucked up right..

You can basically take your gun anywhere except government facilities. Even if a private business has a "no guns" sign, you won't be arrested for taking one in - you may get trespassed and banned from the store, but it isn't against the law.
