Bad in every way.

Rating: 3/10 (8 May 2008)

The mist is not good, in any way except maybe the premise. The dialogue is appalling and the characters are from another dimension let alone the monsters. Not their fault mind, the directing and editing and absolutely frustrating, the 1 dimensionality of the characters could bring anyone to tears. Christians (I am not one mind) are painted with such venom the writer is as evangelical against them as they are against non-believers in the film. I hoped this movie would at least be fun but it's so self conscious, contrived and badly made it'll just make you angry. Too many of Kings very, very poor opinions of society wrapped up in bad, bad movie making. It's like a bad 80's movie only with a few post 2000 computer graphics.
Go watch something else trashy and fun instead, this is just a poorly made tirade about how dumb King thinks people are, sure they are but these guys are like 2 year olds, can't act and are totally unbelievable.
