The Mist (Two-Disc Collector's Edition) description
Writer-director Frank Darabont, who showcased the softer side of Stephen King in his film adaptations of The Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile, turns to darker material for The Mist, his latest King adaptation about a group of ordinary townspeople trapped in a supermarket by a mysterious fogbank. Thomas Jane is top-billed as a Maine illustrator who attempts to calm the frightened shoppers, but his job is cut out for him from the get-go, first by the discovery of malevolent creatures lurking in the mist, and then by the mad mutterings of Mrs. Carmody (Marcia Gay Harden), a local eccentric who calls for Old Testament-style sacrifices to appease the supernatural forces. Darabont delivers monster movie thrills and understated social commentary with equal skill, and he's well supported by his cast (which includes Andre Braugher, Toby Jones, William Sadler and Jeffrey DeMunn) and the vivid special effects by KNB EFX, which effectively mix CGI with models and stop-motion animation (the terrific monsters were designed by legendary comic book artist Bernie Wrightson). And for those curious about how the novella's downbeat ending has translated to film, suffice it to say that Darabont's conclusion is at once different and more unsettling than King's. --Paul Gaita

Incredible and Powerful

The film of "The Mist" is a solid, very well made, character driven horror film. However, as a color film, it resonates solely as a newly made great b movie. In the black and white version, located on disc 2, the film is absolutely stunning. Stunning in its imagery, which literally pops out in black and white, and stunning in its implications. What adapter/director, Frank Darabont has done here is completely transform his film from a drive in (type of) film, to a piece of art that contrasts dark shadows with the light showing through the Mist. In color, the people in the supermarket come across as regular people that one needs to look through their fascades to see the real people underneath. Though in black and white, within these two colors, within these two extremes, one can not help but watch as the two camps in the supermarket form in not only a highly literal, but also a theatrical way. It's clear in black and white that these characters are not just people, but archtypes for the human condition and in my opinion, the film benefits immensely from not only seeing the horror in black and white, but also feeling the horror, sometimes as bleak as possible.
The ending reminded me of other powerful films, like "The Rapture."
The two disc dvd version is the only way to go with this release. All the featurettes are of quality, the commentary is informative and one gets both versions of this highly entertaining and enthralling film.
