The Mist Movie Reaction First Time Watching
I love the movie. I saw it in theaters, the vibe when leaving was insane. Everyone just dead silent
Bro I couldnt imagine the atmosphere in a theater once the credits hit lol
@@TheMikeLawz even me. I knew I liked it, but I was just drained
I watched this in theaters too without any context really. I think I I only seen a tv teaser or something but after I watched it, I was flabbergasted.
The ending is one of the most shocking and controversial in Horror film history.
It’s a close second to Sleepaway Camp for me
“Won’t somebody here see a lady home?”
“Ummmm… no?” 🤣
I was absolutely dead inside when I finished this movie for the first time😩
Omg so dead I needed to watch the Office to even sleep that night!
And yet she ends up making it out alive! I love that, because if they had came with her they might’ve been able to live too.
I love your excitement over The Walking Dead characters. The reason you see multiple actors from The Walking Dead in the movie is because The Mist was written and directed by Frank Darabont, which is the same guy who developed the TV show! He was also involved with executive producing the first season and the first half of season 2 of the show.
Didn’t TWD totally fuck Frank over and fire him and that’s why the show started falling off?
Honestly think this movie accurately depicts how people would react in a situation like this. People nowadays can’t stick together for more than 5 minutes
Yep! We saw it too well last two years
"Nowadays". My brother in Christ, this is all of human history.
People are so quick to turn on each other lmao it’s kinda sad
like the plandemic
We are all people here. Btw people suck.
I saw this in theaters and when I tell you it was so quiet after the father killed everyone. It was DEAD SILENT. I loved this movie since it’s realistic. Not everyone gets a happy ending in stories
Interesting thing about this film, the original ending by Stephen King ended with the group staying at an abandoned motel and a radio signal tells them there hope of a town they can get to. So when this movie premiered even Stephen King was shocked by the ending that he congratulated the director and the team for changing the ending.
I watched this movie when I was pretty young, the last scene BROKE me, I sobbed for a good hour bruh lmaoo. The song at the end didn't help either
It has several Walking Dead actors because of Frank Darabont. He likes to reuse really good , but lesser known actors.
he uses a lot of the same actors 👍👍
Stephen King is really great in getting our attention in these crazy horror movies. The Mist is such a classic especially the ending
The movie ending is not King's though, it's Darabont but King did love it more than his own.
I'm not 100% sure, but I've heard that Stephen King absolutely *loved* the movie ending and was genuinely upset (in a good way) that he hadn't come up with it himself
King has a knack for writing mediocre stories that then get turned into excellent movies by great directors.
@@ahoyforsenchou7288He also has a knack for writing good stories that get turned into terrible movies lol. Seems it's always one or the other with no in between
@@ahoyforsenchou7288 Even more appropriately, it's also a running joke (that was even acknowledged in IT chapter 2 via his self-insert character) that he never knows how to end something. Specifically fixing the ending is pretty standard for a King adaptation lol
The “vampire” military dude actually played a vampire lol, in a shower called being human. It was pretty decent. Also this movie was craaazy and it showed pretty well how people would react in crisis situations, glad you liked it! Can’t wait to see more reactions 👍👍
So if he was a vampire in the shower, what was he the rest of the time? ;) lol Being Human is a good show!
Or should I ask the real question... did its parents name the shower being human?? It certainly is different kind of name ;) hehe
I always thought he reminded me of Darth Maul
@@NewSeraphim funny enough he's actually starkiller in the force unleashed 1 and 2
I was just about to comment this very thing. Glad I checked to see if anyone else did first.
Sam Witwer has been in a lot of stuff. From BSG - He came close to killing Callie, but was sadly stopped before he could pull the trigger - to Dexter - funny thing about that is he was in the same season as Mark Pellegrino, who played, amongst many other things, Bishop in Being human.
He's also done a TON of voice acting for Star Wars games and animated series. Dude has voiced Maul, Palpatine AND Starkiller.
This movie is my favorite because it’s so realistic about how people would react to a situation like this, great reaction btw !
The funny thing about the religious lady is that everything she said came true, right down to sacrificing the boy. It's a neat detail that you have to think back on.
Between that and the allegory of The Green Mile, I'm wondering just how many of his books have religious undertones.
@@that.ll_do_pig king loves to include religion (and how it can be used for evil) in a lot of his stories. The Stand is almost entirely about religion, and is also heavily apocalyptic like this one.
This film was very depressing and that man is gonna have PTSD for the rest of his life. Great film in general and great reaction.
I particularly like Stephen King because he portays people in a very realistic, raw way. People in his books are often characterized more by their flaws and human nature rather than being romanticized or overly heroic. He makes ugly interesting.
Love your reactions , Ive been waiting for this one! 😁 Still a fav of mine that can totally happen
Thanks for watching!! 🙏🏻
I love this movie. The fact that it had the balls to go with the wtf/sad ending, was amazing. Plus some bonus stuffs: The "vampire" military guy plays Starkiller in The Force Unleashed games and has a twitch channel where he plays mainly star wars games.
This movie is considered a part of The Thing universe or at least the H.P. Lovecraft universe - Might be why you got the cthulhu vibe from the monsters.
KENOBI!!!!!!
I know you rated the CGI poorly, but i suggest watching the directors cut, it originally was supposed to be in black and white as an homage to creature features from the 50's and 60's, so they didnt invest anywhere near the budget into CGI as they could have.
The writing in this movie... every character feels so real.
Did Mike just sing a Victorious song at 8:12 😂😂😂 we love to see it!
Yes yes he did
Actually the main actor in the movie was suppose to play Rick Grimes originally and he looks close to the comics aswell
YOOOO! That a great point bro, I can't even imagine if Chris Pratt was the lead role in this film. This movie would for sure be completely different...
No shot I would be able to take Chris Pratt seriously in this role lol
@@TheMikeLawz I totally agree brotha💯
I remember the religious lady came to my elementary school a few yrs after this movie came out and was super sweet but I could NOT shed the fact that her character was as intense and scary as she was.
The spider slings bursting out the guy was so horrifying.
I would rather get eaten alive than going through that.
Single most devastating ending I’ve ever seen in a movie. Destroys me every time.
I love this movie. A lot of people hate the ending but that's the point, it has such a massive impact. I agree with the monster CGI being poor quality and unfortunately it puts a lot of people off who now watch it for the first time. I think this would probably be an epic movie to reboot as long as they don't massively screw it up like they did in the Mist tv series (they completely changed the concept of what the mist is and it was terrible, cancelled after 1 season).
I've read the book and in many ways it's a lot better (as with most of Stephen Kings work). The entire thing isn't as much a monster movie but a social commentary on the problems with human nature and society. The book ending is much different and very open ended. Stephen King himself says the movie ending is much better.
Thomas Jane was originally going to play Rick but an injury or prior engagement kept him from filming the pilot and thus we got Andrew Lincoln
Stephen King liked the ending for this adaptation better than his ending in the novella
Thomas Jane (David) was supposed to be Rick Grimes until he had other commitments
The vampire played a vampire on the American version of Being Human. He also played the tank zombie in the first season of The Walking Dead. That character had a whole backstory while he was alive that got cut. And Thomas Jane would have been rick if HBO had bought the show but they passed. By the time AMC greenlit it he wasn't available. Same director as the first season of TWD before they stupidly fired him. Now think about this. Was Mrs. Carmody right? The mist cleared when the blood of the boy was spilled. EXPIATION!
it didnt get cut, it was meant to be a small spin-off of sorts but it never got filmed
Not half the cast of the walking dead in another depressing apocalypse
Frank Darabond(?) who also did the 1st season of walking dead likes workin with those actors & they with him!😊 I believe 1 of the soldiers @ 2:06 was also in TWD, I think his character's name was Jose. Thanx 4 an awesome reaction- as always! Much love from Australia man 👍 💚🇦🇺
And the actor for Dale from The Walking Dead is also in The Green Mile. A Shawshank Redemption actor is also in this one.
I loved this film 😁 the though ending was so gut wrenching and sad I cried my ass off cause I wanted them to make it then all of a sudden he kills his friends and son and all of a sudden the military came....I was literally like ' Are U F***ING SERIOUS!? WHERE THE F*** WERE YALL AT THE WHOLE DAMN TIME😢🤬!?' I still cry when I watch it just the ending song made it so powerful and u just feel that sense of theres no hope no light ur basically screwed😭😭😭. I think the ending to this film caught alot of people off guard no one expected it and if anyone's read the book they drive off but in the film they did that scene omg I was gut wrenched crying and I could not speak 😢 😭
Dude, that movie is from frank darabont, the creator of the walking dead tv show. Thats why youz have dale, andreand carol in it. dale is also in every movie from darabont. like the green mile, shawshank redemption and so on...
Movie ending might have turned out diff to what we imagine but the only consistent thing is Mike's description being copy pasted along with his thumbnail🧎♀️😋💅🏻
Let's be real here. No one actually reads the descriptions 👀
Carol, Andrea, morales, Dale
Vampire guys is the zombie in thr tank in season 1 and Thomas Jane aka punisher audition for Rick grimes
Fun fact but the CGI is so bad because the movie wasn't originally meant to be in color. It was intended to be black and white but was later changed because the studio worried people wouldn't go see it if it was in black and white. In black and white the CGI isn't terrible but man the color did not do it justice at all.
Your face at the Kool-aid comment. LOL
Legit couldn't tell if you understood the saying.
the CGI is laughable, it draws tension away, even older movies made it a lot better
I didn't mind the cgi. Even though I prefer practical effects. So that's a lot comming from me.
React to Stephen King's Room 1408 .. one of the best psychological horror masterpiece. 😉
Fun fact: when Stephen King saw the ending of this movie (which was invented by the crew not him) he said, “why didn’t I think of that?!”
The guy who directed this movie, directed the Shawshank Redemption, Green Mile and you guessed it, season 1 and some of season 2 of TWD
The guy you said looked like a vampire played a vampire in Being Human actually haha
You and Rome should definitely check out Hell House LLC next!!!!! Please!!!!!! 😭😭🥺🥺
The main character Thomas Jane is also in the walking dead. He played the zombie in the tank that Rick shot in episode one
This movie was surprisingly good. I thought it was gonna be meh but it was good. The ending is fucked up though
I was not expecting that roller coaster of an ending in the slightest bro!
@@TheMikeLawz Me either. It's was a dark ending but I gotta hand it to them that they have balls to pull an ending like that. Makes it more impactful.
It’s always sounded to me like the woman in the song at the end of the movie is saying “ohhh noooo”
you should react to The Punisher with Thomas Jane which is the lead guy in this movie its really good if you haven't seen it
the guy who looks like a vampire once played one in a tv show called ''being human'' hahaha
Respectfully mike is so handsome I always think it but never say it, I love your content.🌸
Thomas Jane just proving he could have been Rick Grimes if he accepted the role
Vampire guy reminds me of Randy Orton. 😆
Why is half the watching dead cast in this movie?😂
I've seen this movie a million times and the ending still fucks me up.. If he waited 5 mins... Shit less than that!! I wouldn't have been able to live on after that shit!! Good reaction video Mike!!
I think though with the way sounds are deadened a bit in heavy fog or mist, that the rumble of all those trucks, even moving slowly, would still have been loud enough to hear when they were so close to them. But it makes for a great shock ending :)
The ending to this movie has blew my mind since I was like 8 and that last scene was more powerful then most entire full movies today sadly
There are only 2 kinds of reactions for this movie. One is this; and the other one is Nikki and Stevens. No middle ground!
Stephen King said he wished he wrote that ending. It's so devastating!
Stephen King movie/adaptation are Always Beyond Awesome..
Plz.. Watch More...
Delores Claiborne..
Misery..
Christine..
Pet Cemetery..
Bro. The most depressing ending to a film I’ve ever seen
10000000000% bro, THAT'S how you do an ending!
Trauma in less than a minute. Let's gooooo!
This whole movie is Trauma captured in a milk bottle
I love this movie, that ending man.though if you want to see Chris Pratt in a serious role I recommend watching The Terminal List
Andrea, Dale, Carol WOW SO COOL
the director is the guy that created or wrote The walking Dead and also Shawshank redemption he loves him some Stephen King lol
He left a bloody hand print like dude on the dome in under the dome lol
The reason why there is so much twd overlap is bc the showrunner of s1 directed this movie and used the actors he liked when casting twd
your reaction to the walking dead characters were mine too LOL
THERE'S WALKERS IN THE BARN SHANE
There's two additional Walking Dead actors in here. The "vampire" military guy who got thrown out of the store played the zombie inside the tank in episode 1, season 1 that Rick killed. The other was the hispanic military guy that hung himself in the backroom. He played Morales in TWD, which is the guy in the first season who takes his family and goes to Birmingham right before Rick and the group get to the CDC.
I love this movie. It’s so wild and the monster concept art is amazing.
Would love to see a Silent Hill reaction! 1 or 2 !
How do you go on after taking out everyone like that then rescue come immediately after?
Also, your reaction to seeing Carol survived & got her kids was great
I honestly don't know what kind of person would be able to. I know there are people that would, I certainly wouldn't. As soon as I was able to get another bullet, I would finish the job.
You missed the old lady's best part. She held up a can of insect repellant. Then a fire clicker and made a FLAMETHROWER
Highly highly recommend reading this book. It’s one of King’s short stories. Only about 175 pages or so. But it’s my all time favorite Stephen King books. It has a much different ending, though I believe King wanted the ending that occurred in the movie, but the publishers advised against it
One of the other actors in this movie Co stared in Shawshank Redemption. The character that was the dad with the kid also stared in the movie The Punisher (2004).😊
Should have watched the directors black and white version. The CGI looks muuuuch better. The B&W lends the movie and even eerier, oppressive atmosphere.
I NEVER noticed all the walking dead cast members til you mentioned it😂 I def noticed the neighbor being from Brooklyn 99 though. The ending had me crying because I loved the little kid😭
FUN FACT : Even though the film is inspired by stephen king novel the ending of this film wasn't in the novel and stephen king wishes he had wrote that .
Definitely in the " top 10 darkest endings of all time"
Bro the ending is BRILLIANT!!!!!
The ending IS referred to in the novel. It just isn't THE ending. But there is a small part where David thinks if things get bad enough , he has the pistol and can "take care of" everyone else.
Darabont used this as inspiration for his ending.
The CGI is rough, but part of the reason it looks so bad is because the movie was originally supposed to be in black and white, so the CGI was done in black and white and then colored after the studio demanded it. The director's cut in B&W looks much better.
honestly Stephan king makes the best books to make into movies just fcked up, creepy and plot twist everywhere lol he really keeps you on the screen and literally EVERYBODY hated the ending but not everything is happy especially in this movie they don't leave room for a happy ending
I tricked my friend into watching this, she asked if it had a happy ending and I said yes. Let's just say she was hella mad. XD
The director of The Mist is Frank Darabont who also helped develop the walking dead and was an executive producer hence all the familiar faces.
It was a good movie. However I hear it’s completely different from the book and Steven king doesn’t care for that movie at all.
Honestly the religious lady would have been making the most sense for the first like 1/3rd lol. Then she became the type of person the Bible would warn against in the end times. She manipulated peoples fear to make herself a cult leader.
Loved this, the book ended very differently, but I think I prefer the movie ending, so harrowing!!
HAHA I don't know why but I fucking lost it when I heard you say, "*gasp* Carol..." 20:15
This movie is so underrated. I remember I watched it for the first time when I was like 9 years old. I was so scared 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh me too!! This was the first horror I saw, I watched it in the 2nd grade.
1:43 isn’t that the guy that plays morales in the walking dead? Shit they have morales, andrea, dale and carol in this thing. They have half the walking dead cast in there.
I love this movie and Steven King we had a storm like this once luckily no aliens but a tornado hit a grocery store and we were trapped for almost a day.
original story ended them driving off looking for sanctuary what they heard of but its unknown does it exist or not, ended with hope, but after the author so the movie he said why didn't i think of that, i would have gone with that ending
This movie was supposed to be in black and white but one of the producers (fucking Weinstein) refused it and cut some of the budget (which explains the CGI). Frank Darabont, please come back!!
they didn't really care that much about the cgi and stuff because the director made the movie to be black and white but the colored version is the one people usually watch tho
why was that dude so cool with him in the beginning and then get pissed and petty later talking about some law suit that happened between them before? you'd think that someone that angry at another wouldn't be so thankful and nice
Mike, do you have a favorite Stephen King movie?
Bruh he has so many bangers. I'd say IT 2017. I LOVE that movie. The atmosphere is amazing
@@TheMikeLawz o God IT sucked!!!
@@0oh0ohbaby BRUH WHAT?!
@@TheMikeLawz I fell asleep with all the talking 130 min of talking 10 min of horror it was a draggg
I was shocked at the walking dead cast too! But Frank darabondt, who directed this movie, was also the original director of TWD so it makes sense.
Plus Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile; 2 actor cross overs in this one.
i remember that i watched this when i was young this made me can't sleep like a month ,especially the ending TT
You should watch the lifetime movie, Trust 2010
Lol when he was singing “beginning on your knees for me” was from victorious 😂
This movie should be called “One”. This is one of my favorites.
Saw this in theaters as a kid before I knew who Stephen King was. When it got to the part where it showed it was in Maine it scared the crap out of me (Lived in maine). Will never forget this movie.
You Forgot About Morales From Walking Dead
This movie is crazy I keep seeing in my recommend but wow
