For most adults, this might turn out to be a hard-hitting sugar coma. But for some, it’s a time to revisit their proverbial childhoods and remember the films they were surrounded by. Released in 2007, The Mist tells the story of a group of people trapped in a grocery store by an unnatural mist that brings unexplainable creatures.
