The Mist (2007)

As far as I know, the director of this film has never made horror films based on Stephen King's works, but with this one ... He shines. A group of people trapped in the supermarket, which is surrounded by a fog from which horrifying creatures emerge. But it won't take long for them to realize that the real monster, horror personified, death, is in the supermarket itself. It's an insightful film that brings to light the terror that emerges from our entrails, from our deepest self, and that traces the human being to be the primitive and destructive animal that it is. This film shows us, as the film itself says, that fear changes everything. People who seemed to be the friendlies turn out to be beings who only love themselves, and don't care about others. People who need someone to guide them, because they feel lost and fierce without a guide, a vision that changes their life and the catastrophic point of view in which they find themselves.

Esse é um dos poucos filmes em que o final é diferente do conto de Stephen King, o que não deixou o autor muito feliz. Nessa adaptação em que uma cidade é tomada por um nevoeiro cheio de monstros, o terror se une à crítica social.
