Ok, so we rented "30 days of night" and "The Mist". Wow, talk about f'ed up.
30 days - blood and gore and vampires.. nothing too much to that one
The mist- Wow, f'ed up ending, religious, and not really gory but gross..
made you think a lot during the movie about how people and religion can sway a crowd and turn them against one and another. Makes you even holler at the tv.
I enjoyed The Mist (probably my favorite SK novella), even though the ending was not like the book. In some ways it was as more effective ending than King came up with originally. Given the historic awfulness of King screen adaptations I think it's one of the best to date.
30 Days.... plain old mindless fun.

it seemed like it had an overall 'green' type theme to the movie... which i thought was interesting after it was over.. but during the movie i was like wtf
Mark Wahlberg is such a better actor than he was in that damn film

it took about 5 minutes before it was painfully obvious it was a green movement homo-film about mankind's damage to the earth. another lame shamalayaayaya movie
We were warned...we went anyway, and the critics were right. This one was lame. Wahlberg and the girl who played his wife gave some pretty lame performances, and that coupled with the lame pretense of the movie made it worse.

I hated The Mist. A friend of mine thought it was great...but I just don't see how someone could completely forget SIMPLE MATH.
Why did everyone start doing the moonwalk before they turned suicidal?
