THE MIST (2007) 

“Fear Changes Everything. Belief divides them, mystery surrounds Them, but fear changes everything.” 

Director: Frank Darabont based on the 1980 novella "The Mist" by Stephen King. 

The film features an ensemble cast, including Thomas Jane, Marcia Gay Harden, Nathan Gamble, Andre Braugher, Toby Jones, Frances Sternhagen, Buck Taylor, William Sadler, Sam Witwer, Alexa Davalos, Chris Owen, Andy Stahl, and future The Walking Dead actors Laurie Holden, Jeffrey DeMunn, Melissa McBride, and Juan Gabriel Pareja. 

A clever horror film promoted with the innovative use of “webisodes”. The moster CGI is very effective, but the real point of the film is that the monsters can be the people we’re trapped with inside rather than the “alien” monsters outside.
