The Mist Painting

Ollie: As a species we're fundamentally insane. Put more than two of us in a room, we pick sides and start dreaming up reasons to kill one another. Why do you think we invented politics and religion? Bud Brown: For Christ's sake, Ollie. You want me to report you? You want to lose your job? Look, I'm gonna be taking down names, starting with you. And I am prepared to file a police report. Ollie: Fine, write down your names. Bud Brown: I will. Ollie: And in the mean time, shut the fuck up and listen. Irene: [after hurling a can of peas at Mrs. Carmody] Shut up, you miserable buzzard! Stoning people who piss you off is perfectly okay. They do it in the Bible, don't they? And I got lots of peas! Ollie: [Ollie just fired 2 shots] I killed her. David Drayton: Thank you Ollie. Ollie: I killed her. I wouldn't have done that if there had been any other way. David Drayton: That's why I said thank you. Mrs. Carmody: We have Judas in our midst! David Drayton: Sure there's no way I can talk you out of this? Brent Norton: David, there's nothing out there. Nothing in the mist. David Drayton: What if you're wrong? Brent Norton: Then, I guess... the joke will be on me afterall. Stephanie Drayton: How did you two always manage to make me laugh? David Drayton: You have incredibly low standards. Stephanie Drayton: Mhm. Biker: Hey, crazy lady, I believe in God, too. I just don't think he's the bloodthirsty asshole you make him out to be. Mrs. Carmody: Well, you take that up with the Devil when you run into him. You just chat it over at your leisure. Ollie: Those of you who aren't local should know that Mrs. Carmody is known in town for being unstable. Biker: No shit. What was your first clue? David Drayton: Want another reason to get the hell out of here? I'll give you the best one: her. Mrs. Carmody. Our very own Jim Jones. I'd like to leave before people start drinking the Kool-Aid. Amanda Dunfrey: You don't have much faith in humanity, do you? Dan Miller: None, whatsoever. Amanda Dunfrey: I can't accept that. People are basically good; decent. My god, David, we're a civilized society. David Drayton: Sure, as long as the machines are working and you can dial 911. But you take those things away, you throw people in the dark, you scare the shit out of them - no more rules. Irene: You'd think educating children would be more of a priority in this country, but you'd be wrong. Governments got better things to spend our money on, like corporate hand outs and building bombs. from ‘The Mist’ (2007) Starring William Sadler ("...by Alexandree Dumb-ass. Dumb-ass." - Tales from the Crypt: The Man Who Was Death), Laurie Holden (Grimm’s Fantastic Four), "I'm Tom Jane!" (Vegan Police), Alexa Davalos (The Chronicles of Riddick), Toby Jones (Infamous), Jeffrey DeMunn (The Green Mile), Frances Sternhagen (Sex and the City), Andre Braugher (Radd’s Fantastic Four), Melissa McBride (The Walking Dead), and Marcia Gay Harden (Pollock). Written and Directed by Frank Darabont (A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors). Based on the Novella by Stephen [the] King (The Stand). The Mist (also known as Stephen King's The Mist) is a 2007 American science-fiction horror film based on the 1980 novella "The Mist" by Stephen King. The film was written and directed by Frank Darabont. Darabont had been interested in adapting "The Mist" for the big screen since the 1980s. The film features an ensemble cast, including Thomas Jane, Marcia Gay Harden, Nathan Gamble, Andre Braugher, Toby Jones, Frances Sternhagen, Buck Taylor, William Sadler, David Jensen, Sam Witwer, Alexa Davalos, Robert Treveiler, Chris Owen, Andy Stahl, and future The Walking Dead actors Jeffrey DeMunn, Laurie Holden, Melissa McBride, and Juan Gabriel Pareja. The director revised the ending of the film to be darker than the novella's ending, a change to which King was amenable. Darabont also sought unique creature designs to differentiate them from his creatures in past films. Although a monster movie, the central theme explores what ordinary people are driven to do under extraordinary circumstances. The plot revolves around members of the small town of Bridgton, Maine, who after a severe thunderstorm causes the power to go out the night before, meet in a supermarket to pick up supplies. While they struggle to survive, an unnatural mist envelops the town and conceals vicious, Lovecraftian monsters as extreme tensions rise among the survivors. Filming for The Mist began in Shreveport, Louisiana, in February 2007. The film was commercially released in the United States and Canada on November 21, 2007; it performed well at the box office and received generally positive reviews. Darabont has since revealed that he had "always had it in mind to shoot The Mist in black and white", a decision inspired by such films as Night of the Living Dead (1968) and the "pre-color" work of Ray Harryhausen. While the film's cinematic release was in color, the director has described the black-and-white print (released on DVD and Blu-ray in 2008) as his "preferred version.” Frank Árpád Darabont (born Ferenc Árpád Darabont, January 28, 1959) is a French-American film director, screenwriter and producer of Hungarian descent. He has been nominated for three Academy Awards and a Golden Globe Award. In his early career, he was primarily a screenwriter for horror films such as A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987), The Blob (1988) and The Fly II (1989). As a director, he is known for his film adaptations of Stephen King novellas and novels such as The Shawshank Redemption (1994), The Green Mile (1999) and The Mist (2007). Darabont also developed and executive produced the first season and first half of the second season of the AMC horror series The Walking Dead (2010–2011). The Mist is a psychological horror novella by American author Stephen King. First published by Viking Press in 1980 as part of the Dark Forces anthology, an edited version was subsequently included in King's 1985 collection Skeleton Crew. In the story, the small town of Bridgton, Maine is shrouded in a dense mist that conceals otherworldly creatures. The protagonist and narrator David Drayton, who has taken refuge with his young son in a supermarket, tries to survive against not only the creatures of the mist, but also fanatical aggression from other survivors. In The Mist, King addresses the themes of man-made fears and religious fundamentalism. King was inspired to write The Mist by a trip to his local supermarket following a thunderstorm, during which he imagined prehistoric animals and giant insects besieging the building. The Mist was nominated for a World Fantasy Award and a Locus Award in 1981, and critics have considered it to be one of King's iconic works and a classic in its genre. Some reviewers lamented the superficial explanation of the mist's nature, while others were pleased with the cinematic presentation. A film adaptation directed by Frank Darabont was released in 2007, and a television series based on the novella's premise aired on Spike in 2017.
