Review:
5.0 out of 5 stars One of the dying breed of horror greats.
I've been looking for the past several years for a deeply affecting and really excellent horror film, and this is it. Films like JOHN CARPENTER'S THE THING and David Cronenberg's remake of THE FLY are about as great as you can get, because not only are they excellent horror films with taut and terrifying moments, they transcend the genre itself. Where Carpenter's THE THING is at its heart a story of utter paranoia and distrust and Cronenberg's THE FLY is a star-crossed love story set against the backdrop of the over-extension of man's reach, Frank Darabont's THE MIST is about how easily and quickly society can break down to its basest and ugliest forms when confronted with a seemingly apocalyptic threat.Thomas Jane (in what should have been a star-making role) plays David Drayton, a mild-mannered artist in a coastal Maine town who finds himself as the voice of reason when an eerie mist blows into town which may or may not be concealing an army of preternatural forces, trapping a small but substantial section of the townspeople in the local supermarket. He, along with his young son Billy (a nicely-cast Nathan Gamble) a pretty young schoolteacher Amanda (played beautifully by Laurie Holden) and a wonderfully crotchety old lady (played by Frances Sternhagen), along with a few others, are trying to hold their ground and their grip on an already-tenuous situation against local Bible-thumping lunatic Mrs. Carmody (played a little too over-the-top by the usually understated Marcia Gay Harden) who is using some unusual coincidences to prove that this attack is the wrath of God, and using the other townspeople's fear to cause a threat within the store that rivals the threat from without.It's easy to dismiss this film as simple escapism, but it is so much more. Great performances by Jane, Holden, Sternhagen and supporting players Andre Braugher and William Sadler put this film above the recent flurry of classic horror remakes, watered-down Japanese-to-American retcons and the "torture porn" sub-genre that have been masquerading as horror films, and it does so with great writing, great effects, great direction and the single most disturbing ending of a film since David Fincher's SE7EN.The last horror film that I saw that seemed truly original and terrifying and iconic was Victor Salva's JEEPERS CREEPERS. While this film may not be quite as visceral as that, it's still been five years since that film came out and since then, for the most part, Hollywood has been cranking out films like THE RING, THE GRUDGE, remakes of THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, HALLOWEEN and THE HILLS HAVE EYES, and the ad nauseam SAW series and its fellow torturers HOSTEL and TURISTAS. Every so often, a terrific little indie horror gem like Lucky Mckee's MAY or John Fawcett's GINGER SNAPS will pop up, but that's all they do. THE MIST is the only horror film to come out of Hollywood in the last 5 years that has had any lasting effect on me, like the great horror films of the 70's like HALLOWEEN, THE EXORCIST, THE OMEN, or some of the greats of the 80's like THE THING, THE FLY or NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET. All of these films transcend the genre as THE MIST does, and it really seems like this is a dying breed of horror film when this film does half the business of lesser recent entries like I AM LEGEND, or 30 DAYS OF NIGHT, where, while decent films, are hardly the films that are likely to keep you up nights haunting you. THE MIST will either haunt you or anger you, but it will provoke debate, especially with an ending that may be on the level of nihilism that rivals that of Romero's original NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD.For my money, this was one of the very best films of last year, and I can only hope that in the future, this is a film that will be revisited and rediscovered as many of the now-classic horror films have been.
5.0 out of 5 stars A reaprisal of The Mist!
The Mist is director Frank Darabont's shot at doing an actual horror film that's similar to those made during the 1950s. Just think of Them, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, It Came From Beneath the Sea, and you'll have of what he was trying to do with Stephen King's most famous novella. It should also be noted that the movie is in both color and black and white on the Two-Disc Collector's Edition. Simply take your pick of which version you want to watch. Let it be known up front that if you decide to watch this movie hoping to see a Frank Darabont film (The Green Mile and The Shawshank Redemption), you're likely to be disappointed with the product. While The Mist is an entertaining, well-made movie for its genre, it's not going to be nominated for any Academy Awards.For those of you who haven't read the novella or seen the movie, the story deals with a large group of people who find themselves trapped inside a local grocery store when a heavy mist drifts in from the surrounding woodlands, enveloping the entire Maine town and bringing with it an array of dangerous and hungry creatures in search of some subsistence. It's not important how the mist came to be, though the film points to a military experiment gone wrong with the creatures entering our world from another dimension. What's really unusual about this story isn't so much the danger that awaiting patiently outside the grocery store, but rather the danger that's inside the place. As the tale progresses and the fear for their lives intensifies, the trapped people quickly split into two distinct camps with one being led by a religious zealot and the other by a sensible everyday man who simply wants to get himself and his young son back to safety. The underlying current here is how swiftly the thin veneer of civilization can slip away when human beings are trapped and filled with an increasing fear for their lives with nowhere to turn. The rest of the story deals with what happens inside the store, especially when some the jaw-smacking creatures breach the defenses that have been placed to keep them out. The good citizens of the store prove to be infinitely more frightening than the strange things outside in the mist.I have to be honest and say that I was disappointed in the film when I first saw it in the theater. I certainly didn't like the ending and the lack of hope it represented to me. When the DVD set came out, I purchased it for my film library and decided to watch the movie a second time. This proved to be a good thing because I found myself enjoying the film a lot more the second time around and could see how well made it actually was. I still had problems with the finale because it was like everyone you cared about gave up at the end, not wanting to be food for the creatures hidden within the mist. The ending to Stephen King's novella was completely different, but he's publicly stated that if he'd come up with Darabont's ending when originally writing the story, he'd gone with it. Certainly the ending has provoked a great deal of controversy with the fans. I think it's also strange that I liked the more realistic ending of the Director's Cut of 1408, but didn't enjoy it here. Still, the movie's very entertaining with a number of scenes that will have you jumping in your seat. It's fast pace with extremely good acting by Thomas Jane, Academy Award Winner Marcia Gay Harden, Toby Jones (who played Truman Capote the year before), Laurie Holden, the always fabulous Jeffrey DeMunn (The Green Mile, The Shawshank Redemption, and Hollywoodland), and Andre Braugher (who was in the remake of Salem's Lot for television).As I wrote earlier, the Two-Disc Collector's Edition has the movie in both color and black and white formats. There's a commentary by Frank Darabont, which is always fun to listen to, and a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the movie and the creation of many of its special effects. This is definitely a movie that all horror buffs should have in their film library. I'm certainly glad that I bought the DVD set and gave the movie another chance.

Tolle Verfilmung eines Stephen King Buches
Schon vor einigen Jahren konnte John Carpenter mit einer Horrormär von graulichen Gestalten aus dem Nebel eine breite Masse von Zuschauern begeistern und verschrecken. Aufgrund des großen Erfolges gab es hierzu im neuen Jahrtausend ein allerdings nur mäßiges Remake.Stephen King hat dieses Thema auch in seinem Kurzroman „Der Nebel“ aufgegriffen, als ihm eines Tages beim Einkaufen in den Sinn kam, wie es wohl wäre, wenn schreckliche Ungeheuer durch die Gänge huschen würden.Meine Meinung:Der geneigte Horror Film Fan wird zwangsweise beim Betrachten von „Der Nebel“ unweigerlich an John Carpenters „The Fog – Nebel des Grauens“ erinnert, da führt keine Diskussion drum herum! Doch hier ist der Hintergrund ein ganz anderer. Während damals noch Geister und verfluchte Seelen ein armes Fischerdörfchen bedroht haben, sind es hier Gen mutierte Wesen… nicht nur, denn wie schnell manch einer in Panik überreagiert musste die Menschheit leider schon oft genug miterleben.Dabei gelingt es Marcia Gay Harden hervorragend die durch geknallte religiöse Fanatikerin zu mimen, die dem Zuschauer binnen kürzester Zeit salopp gesagt auf die Nerven geht und dabei ihre Rolle wirklich sehr überzeugend verkörpert.Dem gegenüber steht der vermeintliche Held Thomas Jane den man bisher hauptsächlich entweder als coolen Rächer aus „The Punisher“ oder Elitesoldat aus „Mutant Chronicles“ kannte, aber auch hier als fürsorgenden Familienvater eine gute Leistung abliefert.Regisseur Frank Darabont führte hier übrigens nach „Die Verurteilten“ und „The Green Mile“ zum dritten Regie für einen Stephen King Geschichte und zeichnet sich auch erneut für das Drehbuch verantwortlich. Allerdings kann man bei aller Faszination zur Story von „Der Nebel“, diese dennoch mit der herausragenden Qualität von „Die Verurteilten“ und „The Green Mile“ vergleichen. Wäre auch unpassend, denn man würde hier Äpfel (Drama) mit Birnen (Horror) vergleichen.Die filmische Umsetzung ist allerdings dennoch gelungen, da der Film stets spannend gehalten wird und die Atmosphäre im Laufe des Films immer dichter und bedrohlicher wird.Über die Sinnhaftigkeit des Themas bzw. der Geschichte kann man müßig diskutieren, würde aber letztendlich ein Konsens hervorbringen, da eine Story wie „Der Nebel“ einfach fantastisch bleibt und sich jeglicher Realität entbehrt. So was mag man oder hasst man… eine Grauzone kann man hier nur schwer finden.Das Bild:HD-Widescreen (16:9, 1.85:1) Codec: VC-1Bezüglich der technischen Seite dieser Blu-ray Disc gibt es gute und schlechte Nachrichten. Zuerst die schlechte: Das Bild! Das Bild, in VC-1 codiert und im Bildformat 1,85:1 vorliegend, ist an sich nicht schlecht und auch relativ scharf ausgefallen, aber das Bildrauschen ist in vielen Szenen wirklich penetrant bemerkbar. Keine Ahnung ob das an der Beleuchtung, an den Kameras oder was weiß ich was liegt, aber bei einem Film diesen Alters kann man doch mittlerweile ein wenig mehr erwarten. Auch der Schwarzwert wurde nicht optimal ausgelotet und es hat auch den Anschein, dass in manchen, aber Szenen leichte Farbfilter eingesetzt wurden. Aber abgesehen davon ist der Kontrast ganz ordentlich ausgefallen und auch in Punkto Farbsättigung kann man noch überzeugen. Allerdings hätte hier wirklich mehr drin sein können.Der Ton:Deutsch DTS-HD MA 5.1, Englisch DTS-HD MA 5.1Wie man es besser machen kann beweist eindeutig der herausragende Ton, der hier sowohl im englischen Originalton als auch bei der deutschen Synchronisation in DTS-HD MA 5.1 mit draufgepackt wurde, was leider noch längst nicht zum Standard in Deutschland gehört. Hier wurde nicht gekleckert sondern geklotzt, denn der Sound klingt überzeugend und druckvoll, aber dennoch klar. Dialoge gehen auch bei heftigeren Szenen nicht im Geräuschebrei unter, sondern können sich im Center voll durchsetzen. Auch die Surroundkanäle wurden entsprechend gefordert und bieten ein starkes räumliches Feeling, bei dem auch feine Nuancen oder leise Hintergrundgeräusche sehr gut zur Geltung kommen.Special Features:- Audiokommentar des Regisseurs Frank Darabont- Der Nebel Director's Choice: Die von Frank Darabont favorisierte Schwarzweiß-Fassung des- Films mit Einleitung des Regisseurs- Entfallene Szenen (optional mit Audiokommentar)- Making-of DER NEBEL (ca. 35 Min.)- Die Analyse einer Szene- Die Monster unter uns: Ein Blick auf die Creature Effects- Der Horror im Ganzen: Die visuellen Effekte- Drew Struzan: Der Künstler- 3 WebepisodenAn Extras wurde sichtlich nicht gegeizt. Neben einem obligatorischen Audiokommentar, gibt es zusätzlich die von Regisseur Frank Darabont favorisierte Schwarz-Weiß Fassung des Films, die allerdings von den Produzenten für eine Kinoaufführung abgelehnt wurde, hier nun aber als Bonus mit enthalten ist. Darüber hinaus werden einige entfallene Szenen als auch ein übersichtliches und informatives Making of geboten. Stark hervorheben möchte ich die Specials „Die Analyse einer Szene“, „Das Monster unter uns: Ein Blick auf die Creature Effects“ sowie „Der Horror im Ganzen: Die visuellen Effekte“, bei dem man tiefe Einblicke in die Dreharbeiten bekommt und einige Hintergrundinformationen erhält. Ergänzt durch die weiteren Features „Drew Struzan: Der Künstler“ und drei Webepisoden wird hier ausreichend Bonusmaterial geboten, die jeden zufrieden stellen.Resumee:Leicht getrübt durch das nicht ganz optimale Bild, kann „Der Nebel“ dennoch überzeugen. Die Story gehört zwar nicht zu den herausragenden Stephen King Verfilmungen, bietet aber dennoch gute Unterhaltung an manchem Heimkinoabend, zumal die Schauspielleistung noch mal Boden wettmacht. Wo das Bild schwächelt, holt hingegen der Ton deutlich auf. Die Extras sind genügend vorhanden und bieten keinen Grund zur Klage.
A movie not to be Missed.
One of the better Stephen King short stories brought to film.
