A science fiction directed by Frank Darabont, based on a book by Stephen King.
After a storm, a dense mist rolls into town. A large group of people inside a grocery store try to survive this disaster as it brings monsters and/or aliens.
This film gives the term "whisper-blast" new meaning. The video is awesome though.
check out: CG monsters!
You should watch this film if you have any interest in seeing CG monsters. There are a few different types in different shapes and sizes, but they all share the quality of being pretty cool.
I'd like to take a moment to discuss idiocy in fictional disasters. When disaster strikes in films or books, the characters' IQ scores suddenly drop. example: "these monsters are drawn to light, we better turn on the super-halogens and the LEDs now!" for fuck's sake! I'd like to see just ONE disaster film with smart people in it that do things right and use some common sense. I've also seen one too many nearly dead buddies dragged back to base camp in hopes that their innards can be stuffed back in, limbs reattached, and ultra-infectious diseases cured. Another disaster disaster is walking slowly in dangerous areas. "those monsters are out here, we better walk really slow so they can catch us easier!" or "I don't have time to pick up the flashlight dangling off my leg, slowing me down, and showing the monster EXACTLY where I am!" that's enough of that.
Anyway, watch this for the cool CG monsters, not the actions of our foolishly brave heroes.
