Had potential that was ruined by a horrible ending

Rating: 4/10 (22 August 2011)

I really wanted to love this movie, the premise to me, seemed awesome, it feels like a movie that I would come up with. I thought the first 2/3 of the movie were OK, nothing great, but they kept my attention, I cared about the characters, and it did freak me out. But then about the time they get back from the pharmacy, it goes downhill. The whole, religion is evil aspect of the film went from annoying to completely unconfortable. Every time that woman was on screen I wanted to hit something. And the fact that these people would actually go out into the mist, knowing what's out there, just seemed incredibly stupid. And then, there's the ending, I won't spoil it, but lets just say it makes all of Unbreakable look like the Care Bears movie. Seriously that ending put me in so much rage that I actually considered destroying the DVD, and had it not been from Netflix, I may have. That has to be the second worst ending to a film I have ever seen, right behind Knowing. But with Knowing, in my opinion was a really great film except for that ending, and the rest of the the really horrible stuff is only in the last 5-10 minutes, not the last third of the movie.
