Ready for another Stephen King short story adapted into a feature film? Considering how pleased I was with 1408 (read our review) I’m definitely ready to give another one of his movies a try. The short story was really pretty short, so I’m curious to see how much fluff gets added and if it’s really just “fluff” or “good stuff”. The updated trailer (see below) has at least improved the CGI from the original trailer, so that’s good news. Horror movies tend to do better for me when they don’t show the monsters but rather leave that to my imagination. Hopefully their choice to bring monsters out of the mist and into view won’t harm the movie, but we’ll know soon enough. What about you? Ready for another installment of King’s horror?

Following a violent thunderstorm, artist David Drayton and a small town community come under vicious attack from creatures prowling in a thick and unnatural mist. Local rumors point to an experiment called the ‘The Arrowhead Project’ conducted at a nearby top-secret military base, but questions as to the origins of the deadly vapor are secondary to the group’s overall chances for survival. Retreating to a local supermarket, Drayton and the survivors must face-off against each other before taking a united stand against an enemy they cannot even see!
