nearly all of stephen king's books tie into his Dark Tower series.

the dude painting the picture in the first scene of The Mist is painting a picture of Roland Deschain, the lead character of The Dark Tower... but he doesn't know it.

The Dark Tower (from the mist) - YouTube

The Mist itself was caused by experiments of The Arrowhead Project, one of the earthly operations of King's big bad, The Crimson King. In trying to break one of the beams holding up the tower, they opened up a portal into "todash space".

Todash Space may also be where stuff like Pennywise from "IT" comes from, among other things....

Project Arrowhead is also a part of The Shop, the group responsible for stuff in King's old book "Firestarter", and who also had agents show up to quiet the people of the town at the end of "The Tommyknockers".


There's no Dark Tower movies, but yeah. It all ties together.

Damn guess I need to read the Dark Tower series

I don't think I have ever enjoyed seeing someone get shot in a movie as much as I enjoyed that nerd busting a cap in that religious bytch.

like everyone said, that religious lady got what she deserved and that shyt probably happens in real life as well.

The ending was a shocker, first time watching the movie. It's pretty stupid though, why not stay in the car and wait it out more? Not like they were hungry or some shyt.
