THE MIST
Blood/gore: No shortage of it. It gets a 10.
Dialogue: Good usage of swearing throughout. It deserves an 8.
Sexual Content: None. Gets a 1 just for having some hot girls in the movie.
Special Effects: Solid special effects. The creature does not look cheesy. Similar in the taste of Cloverfield, this gets a 9.
Weapons: Gets a 7. They use a lot of primitive weapons (sharpened sticks, rakes, knives).
Destruction: It gets a 6 for the destruction of people alone. Not much property itself gets destructed though.
Destruction: It gets a 6 for the destruction of people alone. Not much property itself gets destructed though.
Overall: 41/60
This is the newest movie based on a Stephen King book. I personally liked it. It is graphically entertaining and I have to respect any horror/creature movie that has a non-cheesy creature. This movie is definitely one of the more bloody movies I have seen in a while. People get pretty jacked up throughout, which is why I gave it a 10 for blood/gore, and why I suggest seeing it. The ending is messed up though. It really makes you drop your jaw and say "WOW." The movie leaves a few questions open, which could make you angry at the end, but only a slight drawback to an otherwise sweet horror movie that I would say easily rivals The Shining as the best Stephen King book to movie. Thomas Jane (the main character of this. Also seen in The Punisher and Deep Blue Sea) is not a terribly gifted actor, a little fake and monotone at times, but he is a badass and delivers as a solid action hero in The Mist.
