    Was The Mist one of those M.N.S. movies that ended with a big nothing? He had a few that were really good and suspenseful and then he just couldn’t close them. I don’t think I’ve seen the host. I’ll try it.

      I’m not sure what MNS stands for but the ending has it’s fans (including me) and detractors.

      Bong Joon-ho has gone on to win an Oscar for Parasite but his earlier films are still solid, The Host being a personal favourite.

        I liked Parasite.

        M.Night Shamalan. Some had great beginnings and blah endings. I thought The Mist was one of his.

          Ahhhh gotcha. No it’s a Frank Darabont adaptation of a Stephen King novella and if anyone can adapt King well, it’s Darabont.

                  Glad you liked it. Some people don’t like the ending, possibly because it is too manipulative. However, I love it - it’s a punch to the gut and made me shed a tear.
