The Mist ( also known as Stephen King 's The Mist ) is a 2007 American science fiction horror film based on the 1980 novella The Mist by Stephen King .

Filming for The Mist began in Shreveport , Louisiana , in February 2007 . The film was commercially released in the United States and Canada on November 21 , 2007 ; it performed well at the box office and received generally positive reviews . Darabont has since revealed that he had always had it in mind to shoot The Mist in black and white , a decision inspired by such iconic films as Night of the Living Dead ( 1968 ) and the pre-color work of Ray Harryhausen . While the film 's cinematic release was in color , the director has described the black and white print ( released on Blu-ray in 2008 ) as his preferred version . The director revised the ending of the film to be darker than the novella 's ending , a change to which King was amenable . Darabont also sought unique creature designs to differentiate them from his creatures in past films . Although a monster movie , the central theme explores what ordinary people will be driven to do under extraordinary circumstances . The plot revolves around members of the small town of Bridgton , Maine who , after a severe thunderstorm causes the power to go out the night before , meet in a supermarket to pick up supplies .
