Saw the Mist last night...

And it was quite good. Unfortunately, we had a sucky audience, which detracted from the experience somewhat. Ah, well. It was still good (but very, very, VERY bleak).

Also, as not-really-a-spoiler-but-maybe-a-hint-of-things-to-come: the main character is an artist who does, I quote, "Movie posters, that sort of thing," and at the beginning, he is working on a painting of a lean, leather-clad man with two guns, with a tower in the background and a red, red rose curling to the side.

May mean nothing.

Really? I recalled the short story ending in completely bleak lack of hope--as they drive off into the mist, it's never letting up, and one by one all of the radio stations have turned to static, so there's no one even broadcasting anymore... But it has been a while, so I may have missed some hint of hope.

And, shall do. Thanks.
