What’s happening, horror lovers? This week on the podcast, I welcome @scotthmas83 as we sit down and discuss the 2007 horror sci-fi film adaptation of Stephen King’s “The Mists”.

We begin with the harrowing arrival of the mist after a violent storm, trapping David Drayton, his young son Billy, and a group of townspeople inside a supermarket. As military trucks speed through town and a bloodied man bursts in warning, “There’s something in the mist!”—paranoia and primal fear take over.

We break down the terrifying creature attacks, the rise of Mrs. Carmody’s apocalyptic religious cult, and the failed escape attempts that drive the group toward psychological collapse. From the film’s exploration of fear, faith, and human nature to its devastating ending that left audiences gasping, we discuss why The Mist remains one of the most nihilistic and emotionally jarring horror films ever made.

We also unpack the film’s heavy symbolism—from the dangers of religious extremism to the hopelessness that creeps in when survival feels just out of reach. Whether you love or hate that final scene, you can’t deny how it affected the audience.
