Stephen King's The Mist

October 29th 2007 10:49

The Mist is a 2007 horror film based on the 1980 novella The Mist by Stephen King. The film is written and directed by Frank Darabont. It is slated for a November 21, 2007 release.

The plot of the original Novella by Stephen King is as follows: The morning after a violent thunderstorm, a thick unnatural mist rapidly spreads across the small town of Bridgton, Maine, reducing visibility to near-zero and concealing numerous species of bizarre creatures; vaguely resembling, among other things, lobsters, spiders and giant squid, these entities viciously attack any human who ventures out into the open. The source of the fog and its inhabitants is never revealed, but strong allusions are made to an interdimensional rift caused by something known second-hand to the townsfolk as "The Arrowhead Project", which had been long-rumoured to be conducted at a nearby top-secret military facility.
The bulk of the story details the plight of a large group of people who become trapped while shopping in the town supermarket, among them an artist named David Drayton (the story's narrator), Drayton's young son Billy, and their annoying neighbour Brenton Norton. (Also trapped in the market are two soldiers from The Arrowhead Project; their joint suicide lends some credence to the theory of the Project being the source of the disaster.) Along with the horrifying physical threat outside, of which Norton is an early victim, the story also explores the rapid psychological breakdown of the terrified people inside the market. This breakdown allows for the rise to power of a religious zealot named Mrs. Carmody, who eventually convinces a majority fraction of the survivors that these events fulfil the biblical prophecy of the end times, and that a human sacrifice must be made to clear away the Mist: Billy and Amanda are the chosen victims. As the mob surges forward at her command, Mrs. Carmody is shot by Ollie Weeks, an employee of the market and one of the few survivors who has remained relatively sane. Placing faith on the hypothesis that the creatures hunt primarily by smell, Drayton, his son, and two other survivors escape to Drayton's car. This educated guess proves correct when the survivors are ignored once shut within the car. Learning that the Mist has spread ahead of them across all of Maine, they prepare to drive on into an uncertain future as the story ends.

The movie trailer is below:

Cast:
Thomas Jane as David Drayton.
Laurie Holden as Amanda Dumfries.
Marcia Gay Harden as Mrs. Carmody: An outspoken member of the trapped group who causes its division.
Andre Braugher as Brent Norton: A high-powered attorney who owns a weekend home in the Maine town.
Toby Jones as Ollie Weeks: The supermarket manager.
Amin Joseph

Impulsively, she turns to Jerry Sunborne, a down-and-out addict who has been her husband’s close friend since childhood. Desperate to fill the painful void caused by her husband’s death, Audrey invites Jerry to move into the room adjacent to their garage in the hope that he can help her and her children cope with their sudden loss. Jerry is facing a daily battle to stay off drugs, but in his unexpected role as surrogate parent and friend to Audrey’s son and daughter he finds a core of inner resilience. As Jerry and Audrey navigate grief and denial, their fragile bonds are constantly tested. Working together, however, they discover the strength to move forward.

Sleuth

October 19th 2007 12:32

Sleuth is a 2007 film directed by Kenneth Branagh based on 2005 Nobel Laureate in Literature Harold Pinter's screenplay adaptation of the Tony Award-winning play Sleuth, by Anthony Shaffer. It was produced by Jude Law, who also stars in it as Milo Tindle opposite Michael Caine as Andrew Wyke, who performed as Tindle opposite Laurence Olivier as Wyke in the original 1972 film Sleuth.
