the mist...


... is really a scary movie.
now tats an understatement. because its got violent deaths, its gory, bloody, lotsa screams and hair-raising scares.

plot in brief: a huge storm causes mayhem in kinda suburban area, dad brought his kid son along to the supermart to stock up on food and supplies. outside of the supermart, a foggy mist is seen getting closer and closer.. until they cant see anything outside except just white. what it seemed like, is aliens attacking the earth. and ppl are trapped and hidding inside the supermart. u can expect to see how the creatures with sharp tentacles feed on the humans, and those gigantic spiders lookalike monsters shoot webs that are kinda acidic, and stings from a huge bee/fly can cause violent death and super swollen flesh. these creatures came about, because the military ppl have this idea that there are infinite universes around us.

to quote a line from the movie "they thought that there were other dimensions... other worlds all around us, and they wanted to try to make a window, so they can look through and see what's on the other side".
ok, and i have to assume that the storm interfered with the opening of the window and caused a rift or portal to open, its then that the creatures crossed and walked into our world. yup, the creatures were scary. but i think for the ppl in the supermart, whats scary is not whats outside. but whats inside. as in, the humans were portrayed as selfish beings, who will do ANYTHIN to each other for survival. 可以看到人类丑陋的一面。see-bay gross and disgusting.

and i thought the ending was... not typical hollywood. haha. as in, its quite a depressing ending. which is quite powerful actually. wont spoil the ending for u (GO WATCH!), i can only say, the ones in the landrover were quite impulsive. 太冲动了!是怎样啊?再等一下不行吗?cannot wait a while more is it???

moral of the story. unity is strength. eh, supposed to unite together to fight the creatures rite, what for doubt and kill each other? sigh 相煎何太急。another thing is, if u sense something is strange or wrong, kaa meh zau lah!! still stand there and watch and wait meh? faster run away to safety! if not sure kenna. haha. last but not least, dun be so impulsive. there's always a way out, just have to keep calm, surely got other ways one. dont give up, until the very very very last minute. 不到最后关头,不要放弃,想不开。haha
i think its worth watching, besides the good special effects and horrifying creatures that are NOT cute (altho they very 厉害), the best part about the movie is, it made me think. hahahha
