Misty Mountain Hop

I love, love, love Stephen King’s novella “The Mist.” Collected in Skeleton Crew, it tends to find its way to my bedside every summer, when the nights get hazy and warm and the insects gather ’round the light outside the front door. (Fans of the story will understand the connection.) Just this week I brought up with my co-workers at lunch what a terrific freaking movie it would make.

And lo and behold, Frank “Shawshank” Darabont is making it! Lots and lots of details can be found here at Lilja’s Library.

Post-apocalyptic horror and giant monster horror, together at last! Joy, rapture!
