Just re-watched this and i have to say overall my favourite Stephen King novella adaptation yet! Great acting revolving around what if... type scenarios. We all know the U. S. government are always up to secret stuff and what if they were experimenting with per say other dimensions and time travel only to have opened another dimension and not close the porthole so to speak allowing a mist that contains all these third dimension creatures to escape into our world?? Well we see first hand what happens when a tiny close knit community living at the bottom of a huge army base atop of a mountain allows a mist filled with what i described above to wreak havoc. Trapping a majority of its citizens in a small grocery store together. Lets see in this grocery store we have the citizen with a chip on his shoulder and because he is the only person of colour that the whole town is secretly plotting against him, the town biker, the grocery store manager who despite all thats happened still gives one of his employees heck for drinking beer on the job ( if you see what kind of creatures and humongous type insects this mist produces i know would it make myself wanna tip back a few!) We also have the town crazy woman/ head bible thumper Mrs Carmody holed up with them turning a few of the trapped shoppers into her own personal cult following. Mrs Carmody is played with great conviction by Marcia Gay Harden. This besides being a great thriller it is packed full of CGI creatures providing pretty good realism to the film.
