To be fair, all these monsters only came out of a single portal which was probably quickly closed again. And at the end of the day, they are just huge animals. Bullets and fire will make quick work of them. Zombies movies like to skip the "spread" part or quickly gloss over it, and get to the part where society already collapsed. Despite the fact that the military probably would have prevented things from getting that bad to begin with.
@@Carlit0Tit0 Yeah I think so. Coronavirus is invisible, you can't shoot it. And you can't kill people for transmitting it or not wearing masks. A zombie virus is much easier to see and control. No one has problems with shooting zombies.

@Charles Lee Ray You will NOT be vaporized. He flamethrower is NOT a death ray laser plasma gun... You'll died screaming and your lungs burning. Yeah. And you'll DEFINITIVELY feel the heat! Have you ever looked at archives film from the Vietnam war? smh
@Charles Lee Ray flame throwers at a range of 10-15 metres are normally at around somewhere between 900-1100°c or 1652-2012°f while 20-30 metres is about 800°c or 1472°f to completely vaporize a human till their bones with an open fire would take around 4-5 hours, but that to say if theres a continuous stream of it normally during bunker and trench raids they'd do like little one taps to conserve fuel since these things eats alot of that, the flame thrower uses about half a galon when fired for more then 1-2 seconds when in contact with the flames for just a few seconds the human body suffers from 3rd degree burns all around, feeling the pain for roughly 10-12 seconds until finally fainting. at this point the flames probably would have burned out, and if not treated a immediately then the person would have likely died a minute or 2 after they fainted, and yes healing and recovering from 3rd degree burns are possibly
@Black Lanner The true predator is fear, not religion. Both religious and irreligious individuals can be engulfed in fear and both religious and irreligious individuals can be free of it.
GeorgiaIsOnMyMind religion does spread fear... they make ppl feel paranoid at the guilt of their sins, aka "ITZ R FALT TAT GOD HAZ PUNISHED US! REPENT NAOW SO WE AL WONT B DAM'D BY THE HOLY LURD 'N SAVOR!"... the difference between a religious person and irreligious person in this scenario is that an irreligious person isn't bound by that paranoid fear, so that's one less thing for them to worry about vs a religious person spreading mumbo jumbo bs to cause mass hysteria and delusions in an already dire situation...
Scientists opened a portal to another dimension full of deadly creatures invading our world? We need 2 things to save everything: Nerdy scientist and a crowbar.
Funny thing, Half-Life was inspired by The Mist. The original name for it was even gonna be Quiver, as a reference to the Arrowhead Project in the book.
A more pressing question: Assuming, everything thought up *does* exist somewhere. And assuming that our thoughts bring these realities to existence in the first place. How does he sleep knowing he just created a world similar to our own, full of these creatures?
The Behemoth is actually described as being much larger in the original story, with the other creatures flying around it like they’re fleas or something
That's the point, and why they changed it from the ending, to give a much more larger and painful impact. It's because they didn't wait that they weren't saved.
The end of the movie always freaks me out, could you imagine shooting your loved ones just to find out you made a mistake if you would have waited a few seconds? My fav is the Mist in itself, the waiting of what's inside of it.
I think Stephen King was just sitting around one day and went “Screw it, I like Lovecraft too much.” Twenty minutes later he was sending in the first draft of The Mist.
That was more disturbing than when I saw an animation of someone's liver being ripped out, then stuffed down its throat while it seemingly is being slowly ripped apart in two, while it was bleeding blood from every orphace you can imagine..... I had nightmares
I believe that the Behemoth is actually used as a hive for most of the creatures seen in the film, the other creatures just use it’s body as a home for themselves, seeing that the Gray-Widowers lay eggs in living / formerly living organisms. As for the worms, they likely cling on to the ribs of the Behemoth until they are at their desired location in where prey are present.
My theory: The Behemoth is a non-living being. It is akin to the "walkers" in Star Wars, with "people" (from the other dimension) inside. The layout of their dimension is similar to ours, so it takes them a while before they realize they aren't in Kansas anymore. I say that what they opened, was a ZOO, and, The Behemoth is The Zookeeper, complete with food and shelter for the animals.
@@lukasz5020 It's a THEORY. And, it's only dumb in YOUR opinion. I've actually seen a movie with something similar to what I said. Whatever dude, or dudette. LOL.
@@TheLambdaTeam Whatever. I guess you don't watch very many movies. There are lots of movies with robotic creatures that look like living creatures...you know...sci-fi?
I see monsters in movies all the time, but I found the ones in The Mist particularly disturbing. I think its because the often kind of resemble something I recognized in a horrible twisted way.
@@DL30Creations yeah, but than you would have no movie, this way we get a nice "apocaliptic" movie with decent military forces that are eable to sort things out, better than other movies were the society just collapses and "oh no, you have to survive now" while the military basically vanished
@@davidtv2224 and don’t forget there’s always some ordinary civilian adult or kid that save the world in many other movies. Because governments or scientist weren’t capable.
@@DL30Creations The armed forces probably needed some time to mobilize, and during that, the mist could happily engulf the entire state. The MP in the store tells that everyone got called in. So it's safe to surmise they got the word right after the catastrophe.
But the thing copied Alien with it needing a host to be able to be more dangerous and I think The Mist and Alien were ahead of thier time just saw alien Covenant recently... Damn face hugger scene scared me.
In the book the Behemoth's body is not described, only its legs are visible and the body is so high up that it disappears into the mist making it even more baffling just how huge this monster is.
TV show was fucking awful, I sat through the whole first season waiting for monsters or a breakthrough in plot development but nothing happened. They genuinely threw out the idea of monsters, I'm guessing because of the CGI costs, and replaced it with some shitty half assed psuedo-philosophical explanation about how nature doesn't like humans because we're not nice.
mokka The only thing I saw close enough to one of these monsters was the guy who sprouted wings from his back. And they showed a spider that looked like the grey widow, but wasn’t (fan service). I want my life back.
Lovecraftian doesnt mean tentacles tho. It means "fear of the unknown, fear of madness, fear of the unthinkable" Ctuhlu Was so frightening because the shear look of him would make you insane. Sure monsters are cool, but things you fear without even kmowing how they look or what they are is waaaay scarier. Like laying in your bed at night, kmowing 100% theres nothing to be afraid of, yet you still fear the dark.
look, if i was a creature from the mist would i try to kill a guy who can litterly shape shift into everything and steal my soul by opening its mouth and making me float and uncousiin and habing a chance to be eaten is prob the reason i wont go and try to make him into my diner if he makes me into his dinner by opening his mouth.
while I'm absolutely pro free speech, the way people in panic let themselves to get influenced by people like her is a real and dangerous phenomena. It could becomes a hell of a philosophical debate but I think the shot in the head was the best choice.
My theory for the behemoth is that a large portion of it's body is actually a micro ecology. Where various creatures nest. And maybe the tentacles are a codependent species
The Mist is such a great film! Kinda cool to that is has so many of the Walking Dead alumni in it as well....I also love that it has a realistic ending...none of the main characters are left alive, and the protagonist of the film (Thomas Jane) is left devastated and broken after what he was just forced to do....for nothing. Knowing if he had held out just a few more moments is heartbreaking.
Ehhh, Lovecraft's monsters are meant to inspire fear by giving the reader a sense of hopelessness and a feeling that they are insignificant to the larger forces at play. These creatures are just gruesome.
It's interesting, when script writers and movie producers use Lovecraft's general ideas from his mythos they can produce amazing classic films like The Thing, Alien, and The Mist, but when someone tries to make a direct translation of a Lovecraft story it always turns out to be a dud. Off hand I can't think of any horror/sci-fi writer whos stories are so difficult to transfer onto the big screen.
@T. Gorbach, the unfortunate difficulty of transferring a hopeless cause onto a screen and pure insanity is the sheer fact of trying to figure out some sort of medium that the audience can understand while not driving them insane. Since the main factor in a lot of Cthulhu mythos is the sheer insignificance of the protagonist and their plight as well as the sheer magnitude of what they'd have to accomplish, it's really hard to present an enthralling story onto the big screen. Where as in stories we can create the scenes and imagine the worst that is to come, in big screen there is no imagination, it's presented from the Director's Lense. And thus the Director has to have a REALLY good adaptation to manifest a compelling story that would not only entertain but translate the mythos properly. In the end, it IS theoritcally possible to do, or at least get close to... but at the same time the chances of something pulling a task so flawlessly and successfully are about the same as Valve making Half-life 3 and it meeting fan expectations instead of being a forever dissapointment
I always loved the mist always thought they could make a second movie shooting from the perception of the soldiers how they open the rift and how did they close it
I always remember the behemoth. I remember it larger than 240 ft, and it looks bigger. I imagine that, up on it's back, you'd find a whole biome, with something like trees and tons of other creatures that don't know any world other than the gently drifting back of this gargantuan monster. I love the point at which it shows up, as well. Everyone in the car can only be left with one impression: this is no longer your world.
Good video breakdown sir, thank you. The spiders are the most scary to me. Their ability to multiply as fast as they do would make them a world threat. The lobster creature reminds me of a larger version of the one found in the "Dark Tower" books.
Same, i hate anything with ability of ,,i-will-lay-my-fucking-eggs-to-your-body-and-let-you-die-painfuly,, or ,,only-touch-of-anything-from-me-will-kill-you,,. I would never fight any of this thing even if i would have flamethrower and undestructable armor.
I'm more worried about her than anything... Maaaybbbbe not the spiders thingy, depend if my group is carrying a respectable amount of military grade flamethrower.
The end was pretty much black comedy, I actually lol'd. I liked the movie, but the end is seriously ridiculous: They just couldn't wait to suicide, even though they were apparently safe inside the car for a while... They attempted to escape with the car not only because of the lunatic christians, but also because they hoped for rescue somewhere out there. Out of gas? OMG hurry up with the bullets! Couldn't have been more lolzy if they pulled straws for who goes first ("Yessss! I WIN! Can't wait to get it first!")
I always laughed at the ending, I found it sad but I laughed for no reason. It might be because it would have been only a few minutes until he would have been saved. I just preferred the book ending of uncertainty really.
Admittedly I've never read the book, from what you say I assume they're just stuck in the mist and waiting to "see what happens" (similar to the ending in Carpenter's 'Thing')? That'd be much better of an ending than what we got in the movie - heck, any other ending would.
If you read The Dark Tower series by Stephen King (specifically book three, 'The Waste Lands'), you'd not only get better descriptions of some of these creatures, you'd also find out where they came from and get an idea of the mist from craters they were crawling into...
You know what’s really interesting about the tentacles from Planet X? The way they were animated and put into the movie. The director couldn’t get an animatronic to look as fluid as he wanted. So he got on a green sleeve and glove and did it himself! It gave it a more real look. There’s more evidence of directors or other film crew members using practical effects to give the movie a better look. Like using condoms full of blood and rupturing them above and elevator shaft to give a better look to a leg getting ripped off.
So... Capcom infections are something you want? Plants, sharks, crocs, people, dogs, everything, and for people who assume they'd decompose the maggots that feast upon the infected skin turn as well in other words the Earth would die slow death or a fightable enemy with no real lasting effects?
It's bobby pin time Pedestrians Movie was too damn good and with realistic panic. I prefer the movie ending than you're typical cliche bullshit of making the reader/audience make up their own ending which was on the book.
Interesting facts - connections of SK's other books: 1. In It: the web of It's spider form caused similar effets on humans, like seen in the Mist. 2. In the Dark Tower series: there's a place, named Todash, where a lot of monsters lived, almost everyone of them are insect-like. Probably, with the Arrowhead Project, the miliraty managed to open a portal to the Todash, and all the creatures of "The Mist" came from there...
I read somewhere that they were in fact todash creatures and it was a thinnie that actually opened the way for them to get into the Mist universe. But also it was a preview of what would have happened if the crimson king got full 100% control of the Dark Tower and its twinner, The Rose. 😅
Imagine: creatures from the following movies all at once. The mist Stranger things Slither Critters Pacific rim Then to balance things out against the Aliens A quiet place The thing All at once. 😁
I'd say Ultraling, then again thats a late game strat. Its morely a 8pool due the slow start in the movie. as the mist is visible in start of the film but comes later.

Whe I first watched The Mist the ending totally messed me up. It was just so f'd up. Great movie.
They just needed to sacrifice the child like the prophet woman said lol
Yes
Actually the book ending is different from the movie ending
The book ending is a trillion times worse, believe you me
Stephen King gave the ending alot of praise
“Deadly enough to cause its victim to die”
Lmao
Glad someone pointed this out
DAYM THAT'S DEADLY!
fiuuu! thought is was just deadly enough to make the victim live
It means the creatures are deadly enough to cause the death of people without touching them, as the lady in the market who kill herself
I'll take any of those monsters over the fucking spiders.
Artofficial same honestly. At least the giant ones will just crush you or cut you in half. Hopefully quickly. But the spiders fucking torture you.
But who knows what the tentacles do after they drag you away?
not the bugs
ill take the spiders over the tentacle worm things
Don't come to Australia then
It feels good to finally see a movie with capable military forces
Capable? If they were competent from the get go the creatures would never had made it off the base to begin.
@@DL30Creations yeah, but than you would have no movie, this way we get a nice "apocaliptic" movie with decent military forces that are eable to sort things out, better than other movies were the society just collapses and "oh no, you have to survive now" while the military basically vanished
@@davidtv2224 and don’t forget there’s always some ordinary civilian adult or kid that save the world in many other movies. Because governments or scientist weren’t capable.
Welp they did manage to kill those creatures using store weapons
Seems like this creatures except the behemoth is all offense and no deffense
@@DL30Creations The armed forces probably needed some time to mobilize, and during that, the mist could happily engulf the entire state. The MP in the store tells that everyone got called in. So it's safe to surmise they got the word right after the catastrophe.
This is why I'm never moving to Australia.
Yeah, you should come to Brazil instead
Lol
I made a joke that was similar but instead of saying
this is why I’m never moving to Australia
I said “Only in Florida”
@@Peikkey 😂👏👏yes👏👏😂

seems like they're more being described than explained
HEY. Gotta get that adsense somehow
Oof
pressure zone if you explain what a landscape looks like, you are also describing it right
Same thing nigga
you boi no it's not. Explaining would be including origin and backstory. This IS just describing what we can all see.
The Mist was ahead of its time.
Alien and The Thing came out like thirty years earlier and had a bigger impact. So I don't know if The Mist was "ahead" of it's time.

But the thing copied Alien with it needing a host to be able to be more dangerous and I think The Mist and Alien were ahead of thier time just saw alien Covenant recently... Damn face hugger scene scared me.

Elijah Cuña UNGOC: wait, that’s illegal
(Flying Dutchman) The mist
(Spongebob) The S.C.P. foundation
In the book the Behemoth's body is not described, only its legs are visible and the body is so high up that it disappears into the mist making it even more baffling just how huge this monster is.
TV show was fucking awful, I sat through the whole first season waiting for monsters or a breakthrough in plot development but nothing happened. They genuinely threw out the idea of monsters, I'm guessing because of the CGI costs, and replaced it with some shitty half assed psuedo-philosophical explanation about how nature doesn't like humans because we're not nice.
Well its only the first season,right? I havnt watched it yet but i have high hopes.
Already been cancelled :(
mokka The only thing I saw close enough to one of these monsters was the guy who sprouted wings from his back. And they showed a spider that looked like the grey widow, but wasn’t (fan service). I want my life back.
it sucked
The only good thing about the show was the into (opening ) that made the show look mysterious and dark.
My fave monster was that crazy Christian lady
She went dark very, very fast.
Ha same

Avyon404 yeah lol
Cough, Australia, cough,
Can clearly see a Lovecraftian influence in here.
Did someone say *L O V E C R A F T I A N*
@Melody Lacquement The behemoth in the movie, yes.
In the novel, it isn't described like this, much more like a giant six legged dinosaur...
Lovecraftian doesnt mean tentacles tho. It means "fear of the unknown, fear of madness, fear of the unthinkable"
Ctuhlu Was so frightening because the shear look of him would make you insane.
Sure monsters are cool, but things you fear without even kmowing how they look or what they are is waaaay scarier.
Like laying in your bed at night, kmowing 100% theres nothing to be afraid of, yet you still fear the dark.
King wishes he was that good.
He is Stephen Kings biggest influence duhh
My theory is that all of the mist creatures are from macroverse,the same universe where pennywise came from
Yeah that's not really a theory. It's in setting fact. Outright confirmed.
Pennywise tells in the novel that it is alone in the macroverse.
look, if i was a creature from the mist would i try to kill a guy who can litterly shape shift into everything and steal my soul by opening its mouth and making me float and uncousiin and habing a chance to be eaten is prob the reason i wont go and try to make him into my diner if he makes me into his dinner by opening his mouth.
The Macroverse or Todash?
@@stephenmandelbaum2027 Todash
I just watched this again a few months ago, there's so many "walking dead" actors in this movie
The director of this movie is frank darabont so...
No shit, do some research before making stupid statements.
Three of them!
Also some fear actors
You forgot one monster... The lady in the store
The Golden Tiger Yes
SenpaiMark 666 She was asking to be shot dead.
Welp,time to like this comment with my 7695 accounts
u lied cuz the comment only have 125 likes XD
while I'm absolutely pro free speech, the way people in panic let themselves to get influenced by people like her is a real and dangerous phenomena. It could becomes a hell of a philosophical debate but I think the shot in the head was the best choice.
My theory for the behemoth is that a large portion of it's body is actually a micro ecology. Where various creatures nest. And maybe the tentacles are a codependent species
The Mist is such a great film! Kinda cool to that is has so many of the Walking Dead alumni in it as well....I also love that it has a realistic ending...none of the main characters are left alive, and the protagonist of the film (Thomas Jane) is left devastated and broken after what he was just forced to do....for nothing. Knowing if he had held out just a few more moments is heartbreaking.
BIlly Ray , the story ended differently.
King also liked the adaptation of the Dark Tower. :S
thanks for spoiling it for others
the movie is literally a decade old, its not a spoiler anymore.
@@paulamattingly4461 however in an atrical he explained why it failed
The Mist is a very underrated film. Although not a part of the Cthuthu Mythos, it's probably the best Lovecraftian film ever made.
Agreed..these are definitely Eldritch monsters.
Ehhh, Lovecraft's monsters are meant to inspire fear by giving the reader a sense of hopelessness and a feeling that they are insignificant to the larger forces at play. These creatures are just gruesome.
It's interesting, when script writers and movie producers use Lovecraft's general ideas from his mythos they can produce amazing classic films like The Thing, Alien, and The Mist, but when someone tries to make a direct translation of a Lovecraft story it always turns out to be a dud. Off hand I can't think of any horror/sci-fi writer whos stories are so difficult to transfer onto the big screen.
T. Gorbach yep
@T. Gorbach, the unfortunate difficulty of transferring a hopeless cause onto a screen and pure insanity is the sheer fact of trying to figure out some sort of medium that the audience can understand while not driving them insane. Since the main factor in a lot of Cthulhu mythos is the sheer insignificance of the protagonist and their plight as well as the sheer magnitude of what they'd have to accomplish, it's really hard to present an enthralling story onto the big screen.
Where as in stories we can create the scenes and imagine the worst that is to come, in big screen there is no imagination, it's presented from the Director's Lense. And thus the Director has to have a REALLY good adaptation to manifest a compelling story that would not only entertain but translate the mythos properly.
In the end, it IS theoritcally possible to do, or at least get close to... but at the same time the chances of something pulling a task so flawlessly and successfully are about the same as Valve making Half-life 3 and it meeting fan expectations instead of being a forever dissapointment
The widower got me all fucked up.
When i saw the movie though the behomoth is what sold me because ..lovecraft.
4:30 He's defnitely Australian.... "Normal Sized Spiders"
Lol
I LOVED the designs of the monsters in this film. It was so Lovecraftian, yet it felt like something out of Trevor Henderson's sketchbook.
My nigga Behemoth gets a bad rap he just wants veggies
Mike Smith its because he stepped on a few kids and nuns by accident and trump tweeted about it.
Mang Merciless
He was a good boy
Mike Smith I'm sure some of the monsters are good in nature
the "behemoth" (actually a wendigo) is definitely not one of them, he just happens not to attack directly himelf.
Aren't humans behemoths too? How many ants and little bugs we kill when we walked outside in a forest?
I always loved the mist always thought they could make a second movie shooting from the perception of the soldiers how they open the rift and how did they close it
I always remember the behemoth. I remember it larger than 240 ft, and it looks bigger. I imagine that, up on it's back, you'd find a whole biome, with something like trees and tons of other creatures that don't know any world other than the gently drifting back of this gargantuan monster. I love the point at which it shows up, as well. Everyone in the car can only be left with one impression: this is no longer your world.
In the novel, the Behemoth is even bigger. Stephen King wrotes that a blue whale would look like a trout to this meanie.
I watched this so long ago but I still remembered some of the scenes which means it must've really terrified me when I was little
Lemme bet, those good ol' spiders eh ?
Korpio same
Same
Okay
Korpio
Haha, literally same! But, for some reason the ending always freaked me out the most.
The Behemoth's legs are taller than 18' on the movie for sure. More like 40' from the looks of it
Closer to over one hundred-fifty feet tall if the whole thing tops out at two hundred.
I think the 18 is each section of the leg
I bet the military at the end said”BURN IN HOLY HELL FLAMES!!”
Purge the xenos with holy fire!
Brother! Get the flamer... the HEAVY Flamer!
Holy hell flames? Yeah, alright then.
Heresy!
FOR THE EMPEROR
Good video breakdown sir, thank you. The spiders are the most scary to me. Their ability to multiply as fast as they do would make them a world threat. The lobster creature reminds me of a larger version of the one found in the "Dark Tower" books.
I want a "The Mist" video game LMAO... FPS 👀
👀 That would be intresting...
They made one. Think they called it Silent Hill.
That would be pretty cool. I'd play it.
Dan Johnson LmAo true
Go and play the historical society part of silent hill 2 , makes the mist look like a joke
THIS IS WORSE THAN A ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE
Anderson Mendez to much worse heck give me a infinite ammo minigun and I would still take zombies

@@DoubleM-hf6ih oh yes, I was so glad somone finally shut her up😅
I misread this as Mrs. Chernobyl , and I’m pretty sure that would have been a deadly monster in The Mist
Star Wars AT-AT in organic form.
That behemoth is so unfuckin'-believably huge, it'd dwarf out AT-ATs like ants.
TheLambdaTeam yeah lol
@@TheLambdaTeam i don't think so
@@TheLambdaTeam they look like the same size
AT-AT's are 74 feet. The best bet would be an AT-M6 which is 134 feet and even so the behemoth towers it by an extra 106 feet. So, not even close.
I always hide my eyes during the scene with the grey widowers since I have a fear of spiders.
I have no arachnaphobia, and even I think that the answer is "Nuke it 'till it glows".

The ending of the mist messed me up dude
I know it messed everyone up.
Jamad Callery fr
The end was pretty much black comedy, I actually lol'd. I liked the movie, but the end is seriously ridiculous: They just couldn't wait to suicide, even though they were apparently safe inside the car for a while... They attempted to escape with the car not only because of the lunatic christians, but also because they hoped for rescue somewhere out there. Out of gas? OMG hurry up with the bullets! Couldn't have been more lolzy if they pulled straws for who goes first ("Yessss! I WIN! Can't wait to get it first!")
I always laughed at the ending, I found it sad but I laughed for no reason. It might be because it would have been only a few minutes until he would have been saved. I just preferred the book ending of uncertainty really.
Admittedly I've never read the book, from what you say I assume they're just stuck in the mist and waiting to "see what happens" (similar to the ending in Carpenter's 'Thing')? That'd be much better of an ending than what we got in the movie - heck, any other ending would.
I want more monster movies like this and Cloverfield
Cloverfield was a good movie. if they didn't shake the camera too much, it would have been a great movie.
The reason the cam was shaky was it was intended to look like someone was recording it with a hand camera
right, but it was being shaken so much that I was actually starting to feel sick.
omg the whole cloverfield series is just.... wow
Stop... Cloverfield was dumb
If you read The Dark Tower series by Stephen King (specifically book three, 'The Waste Lands'), you'd not only get better descriptions of some of these creatures, you'd also find out where they came from and get an idea of the mist from craters they were crawling into...
I need to read that book
Fun fact: in Russian, "behemoth" means a hippo.
Hippopotamus means 'water horse' or somehting like that.

You know what’s really interesting about the tentacles from Planet X? The way they were animated and put into the movie. The director couldn’t get an animatronic to look as fluid as he wanted. So he got on a green sleeve and glove and did it himself! It gave it a more real look. There’s more evidence of directors or other film crew members using practical effects to give the movie a better look. Like using condoms full of blood and rupturing them above and elevator shaft to give a better look to a leg getting ripped off.
I’d take a zombie apocalypse any day over this bs
Franco Benitez me too it would probably end after a week or so since they are rotting corpses
Me too... at least zombies are easier to handle.
Triston Ong *leaf blower*
So... Capcom infections are something you want? Plants, sharks, crocs, people, dogs, everything, and for people who assume they'd decompose the maggots that feast upon the infected skin turn as well in other words the Earth would die
slow death or a fightable enemy with no real lasting effects?
WARLORD op a living corpse would probably rot and the military could deal with the zombies quite easily well if there WWZ zombies not WD zombies

It's bobby pin time Pedestrians Movie was Awesome!
krazytaxicabbie sorry you two, I remember this movie being horrible lolol. I love you guys tho
It's all good ya most people don't like this movie but that's ok
It's bobby pin time Pedestrians Movie was too damn good and with realistic panic. I prefer the movie ending than you're typical cliche bullshit of making the reader/audience make up their own ending which was on the book.
Same
Interesting facts - connections of SK's other books:
1. In It: the web of It's spider form caused similar effets on humans, like seen in the Mist.
2. In the Dark Tower series: there's a place, named Todash, where a lot of monsters lived, almost everyone of them are insect-like. Probably, with the Arrowhead Project, the miliraty managed to open a portal to the Todash, and all the creatures of "The Mist" came from there...
I read somewhere that they were in fact todash creatures and it was a thinnie that actually opened the way for them to get into the Mist universe. But also it was a preview of what would have happened if the crimson king got full 100% control of the Dark Tower and its twinner, The Rose. 😅
