That Creepy Cloud

Guess what's coming out on the 21st that I'm very excited about?! The Mist by Stephen King, that's what! I am a total nut for scary/freaky/thriller type movies, and we all know that Stephen King's picture is next to all those words in the dictionary!

You know The Mist, right? The eerie, terrifying, deadly mist which hides the "things" lurking there? SO totally scary! But then of course there are the people trapped inside the grocery store who begin getting as weird as the mist -- maybe even more so. They actually think they can appease the mist by sacrificing the little boy! And there's the earthquake, and the guy catching on fire, and the -- oh geez, just go watch the trailer yourself. LOL It's creepy AND good!

Have you ever been in a group of people and become scared of something like that? I remember once when a good friend and I went to a party we were absolutely not supposed to go to -- in the snow. Yeah I know, stupid teenagers! We left when it was barely snowing; I don't remember how we got ourselves out of our respective homes without our parents knowing the truth, but being devious 17 year olds, we managed quite well, thank you very much. ;) Well anyway, as the night wore on, the snow got MUCH worse. We started getting worried and more than a little scared. We finally wised-up and left, but we had to drive about 30 or 40 miles to get home. Oh, did I forget to tell you that the party was in a different town? Yeah, it was. Hey, when we made the decision to disobey, we did it in a big way! *hehe* We began to INCH our way home, and the only way we could stay on the road was for me to open my door and try to see the white line, which of course is next to impossible in a blinding snowstorm. Thankfully we arrived back home safe and physically sound, but emotionally we were wrecks! LOL To this day I hate driving in the snow!

I think it's quite possible that after seeing The Mist, I won't be driving in the fog, either. ;)

The Mist, Stephen King
