One of the best stephen king films. Favorite aspect of the story is the realization that humans have the potential to be much worse than any cthulhu-type monsters or demons. It took that woman a day to rile those people up into a frenzy and start resorting to human sacrafices. I'll give you that it's a crazy situation, but the clear headed people in that store all decided they would rather deal with cthulhu, massive crabs and demon spiders than stay and deal with the REAL monsters. The fear driven fanatics. Absolutely terrifying.

I might be reading into it because I’m a therapist, but I could see it as a lesson against suicide. Never give up hope because you never know. Btw, my favorite monster is the behemoth at the end

The real monster of the mist is fear itself, and how it drives people to do monstrous things in dire situations. Whenever we are scared of something, much of fear is the anticipation of a thing not the actual thing itself. When David acts on an anticipated fear, he commits a monstrous act. Darabont's ending confirms that David really didn't have anything to be afraid of, and what really kills his family is himself when he's scared. The idea of fear of unknown ramifications driving people to do monstrous things is also represented in Carmody's cult.

@vadalia3860 2 жыл бұрын

I'm sorry but this is a frankly ridiculous take on the movie. David DID have something to be afraid of- the actual physical monsters from another world who were violently attacking and killing people. He didn't kill his family... he killed his son. His wife was killed by those very real, literal monsters and he lived. Through sheer dumb luck (or bad luck, depending on how you look at it) And the fact his act of killing his son is monstrous is only dumb to the dumb luck that the calvary rolled in immediately afterward. If he'd refrained and instead the movie ended with him watching those spiders paralyze his still-alive son & use his body to incubate their eggs- it's his restraint that would have been monstrous.

In the film i can't tell whether its jack nicholson's performance or kubrick's writing but jack comes off as capable of murder from the outset and the hotel just gives him an excuse.

why the ending is great as it pertains to the theme of the film; Throughout the movie runtime we see what unquenching faith does to the group, as they become divided by religious fervor, and almost swallowed by it. The message seems to be that you shouldn't be blinded by faith, or it'll be your doom. But then we see what no hope or faith at all does to our last little group of survivors..., ultimately bringing it back to the message of a little faith is a good thing. Salvation might just be just around the corner, even if you don't believe. (tl;dr; Don't be an extremist)

I usually refrain from using the term faith, since as it applies to belief systems, it's a belief maintained for no reason and against all reason... I'd say one should maintain hope, more than faith. However, people shouldn't let reason give way to hope or faith. The problem is, people will make up whatever they want to cope with something, it's human nature unfortunately, we try to explain away anything we don't understand, rather than just accepting that we don't know something.

@@aj897 to be fair, most of us who have seen the film and love the ending are like that. There’s a weird sense of glee you feel when you inflict that ending on a friend or a loved one, and you watch them go through the same rollercoaster of emotions you did. I also find Mrs. M’s response immediately after watching the film to be pretty normal. It’s not until you sit with the film for a little bit afterwards that you realise how “good” it is. The initial shock and trauma of it is just so overwhelming to start with that it’s hard to analyse rationally. It was such a work a genius, and frankly we, the audience occasionally need a gut punch like this movie to wake us up and realise how fragile the strappings of civilised society really are.

For starters: can we give a standing ovation for Thomas Jane' performance in this movie first? Thank you. Now, the book ending is basically they travel through the mist, refilling the car tank at every gas station where this was possible, sleeping in abandoned motels and such, and they think they hear a radio transmission for a direction to go. I like it, it's one of the better Stephen King endings. ... but I LOVE the ending of this movie since the first time I saw it. I was like "Will you go there? You'll fucking dare go there? WTF? You are going there!?! YOU FN WENT THERE??!!!" I was in awe. Then took my then not exactly yet girlfriend to see the movie. She loved it even more. We were in a 5 years relationship after, still hear from each other from time to time. You can say that this was the movie that brought us together, as she pretty much said "If this didn't ended like it did, I think I would slap you for making me watching it". She was deep into the funeral doom metal back than and was studying animation here, thus was watching all sorts of bizarre stuff in her cinematography classes. We ended up rewatching it at least couple of more times after (basically each and every time it came on TV and we managed to catch it). Blessed years. 🥲

As you stated the ending of the novella is ambiguous. Instead of running out of gas the group bunkers down in a Howard Johnson while David writes down the preceding events of the mist on a notepad before leaving it on the front desk of the Hotel. Darabont's ending was such a gut punch for the audience regardless if you've read the story or not. I remember feeling this chronic sense of emptiness as the film drew to a close, I just sat in the dark and staring blankly at the screen as the credits rolled. Great experience honestly

I believe, actually, the monsters were inspired by H.P. Lovecraft, but nothing of his was actually used. These creatures actually come from a space between dimensions in Stephen King's lore. He made a multiverse and...easiest way I can explain is if you Imagine bubble wrap, each bubble is a universe and these creatures come from the space between the bubbles. There were also actually a few creatures in the novella that were not used in the movie. One being a giant 30ft green kite-like creature that flew overhead.
