I love it. Frank does good work, and uh, this thing has a
different look, it has almost—I don’t want to sound like a critic, but
it’s, it’s a wonderful sort of documentary feel. It’s separated from
the other field of uh, horror suspense movies of the last couple of
years because of that, that documentary feel. It has a sense of "The
Twilight Zones” that I loved when I was a kid, "The Outer Limits”
episodes that I loved as a kid.
But also you know, here’s a movie that was made by an adult.
It’s not—I’m not going to name any names, but it isn’t part of this
(unintelligible) pack young guys who haven’t quite, you know, come to a
realization yet that this is as serious as any other genre. So you’ve
got a picture that asks some serious questions.
If people want to ask them, or if they just want to have a good
time. Uh, it’s there too. But it has a wonderful realistic look that I
was just crazy about, and Frank also has a number of different actors
that he’s worked with over the years. Some of them are in the movie.
Jeffrey DeMunn who’s always been a favorite of mine to the point where
he’s recorded some of my books on tape. Love Thomas Jane, always have.
I'm seriously stoked bor this one and all the advance buzz has been completely favorable. We'll all know soon enough. THE MIST opens on Nov. 21st. Let's get out there and support it shall we.
